bio-ecological-genomics-conservation-genetics

bio-ecological-genomics-conservation-genetics is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from GPTomics/bioSkills. It costs 232 tokens per session (7,891 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A toolkit for measuring the genetic health of animal or plant populations, especially populations being conserved. It examines population size over different historical periods, inbreeding, genetic diversity, and harmful genetic variants.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to estimate effective population size, calculate F-statistics and runs of homozygosity, assess genetic load, and study changes in endangered populations over time.
Why use it?
It brings several population-genetics checks together so researchers can judge whether a population is losing genetic health and how urgently it may need protection.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bio-ecological-genomics-conservation-genetics scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 435 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: hierfstat 0.5+, adegenet 2.1+, detectRUNS 2.0+, poppr 2.9+, NeEstimator V2.1+, GONE2, SNeP 1.1+, SLiM 4+, msprime 1.3+, bcftools 1.19+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

  • R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name to verify parameters
  • CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

Conservation Genetics

"Assess the genetic health of my endangered population" -> Estimate Ne by time horizon (contemporary LD, recent trajectory, deep demographic history), measure inbreeding via F_ROH with length-class thresholds, decompose realized vs masked genetic load, and interpret against the modern 100/1000 Ne rule.

  • R: hierfstat::basic.stats() for F-statistics and diversity
  • R: detectRUNS::consecutiveRUNS.run() or bcftools roh -G30 for ROH detection
  • CLI: Ne2.exe option_file.ne2 for NeEstimator V2 contemporary Ne (option-file driven, NOT CLI flags)
  • CLI: gone2 for recent Ne trajectory from genome-wide LD (requires populated cM map)

The Single Most Important Modern Insight -- There is No Single Best Ne Estimator

The most common methodological failure in conservation genetics is treating "Ne" as one quantity. It is not. Each Ne estimator captures a different time horizon with different biases:

  • LD-based (NeEstimator V2, Waples 2006): Last 1-few generations; biased downward at small N
  • GONE / GONE2 (Santiago 2020): Recent 100-200 generations trajectory; requires populated cM genetic map
  • Heterozygote-excess: Last 1 generation only; very low power
  • Temporal (Jorde-Ryman): Between two time-sampled cohorts
  • Stairway Plot 2 / dadi / fastsimcoal2: 10^3 to 10^5 generations from SFS
  • PSMC: 10^4 to 10^6 generations from single high-coverage genome

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

bio-ecological-genomics-conservation-genetics is a skill published in the GitHub repository GPTomics/bioSkills (1,201 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 232 tokens to every session and 7,891 once invoked, about $0.0012 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
