bioinformatics-tool-version-compatibility-assessment

bioinformatics-tool-version-compatibility-assessment is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HolobiomicsLab/asb-skill-collections. It costs 39 tokens per session (1,842 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A compatibility check for the software tools and versions that a bioinformatics pipeline needs. Bioinformatics uses computer programs to study biological data, such as DNA sequencing results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking version requirements before running multi-tool pipelines, including Hi-C data processing. It helps decide which tools to use from the system and which to install.
Why use it?
It catches missing or incompatible tools before a long analysis fails partway through. It can also identify which required tools are available or need installation.

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

bioinformatics-tool-version-compatibility-assessment 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 12d 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.

Summary

Assess and resolve version compatibility requirements for interdependent bioinformatics tools before pipeline execution. This skill ensures that declared tool versions (e.g., samtools ≥1.9, Python >3.7) are available in the system environment or can be automatically installed, preventing runtime failures downstream.

When to use

Before executing a complex bioinformatics pipeline (such as Hi-C data processing) that depends on multiple third-party tools with explicit version constraints. Apply this skill when tool versions are documented in configuration files or installation instructions and you need to validate that the current system environment satisfies all declared requirements, or when automatic dependency resolution is available and you must configure which tools to auto-install vs. source from PATH.

When NOT to use

  • Pipeline tools are already fully installed and validated in a frozen container (Docker, Singularity) — version compatibility is pre-resolved at container build time, not at runtime.
  • You are running a single-tool analysis (e.g., only bowtie2 alignment) that does not require inter-tool version coordination.
  • Pipeline provides no version constraints or auto-installation mechanism — manual dependency management is required instead.

Inputs

  • config-install.txt (template configuration file with tool path declarations and version requirements)
  • system PATH environment variable
  • installed tool binaries (samtools, bowtie2, Python, R, etc.)
  • optional: full paths to pre-installed tool binaries

Outputs

  • config-system.txt (resolved configuration file recording detected tool paths and versions)
  • validation report indicating which tools met version thresholds
  • installation log showing auto-installed dependencies (if applicable)

How to apply

First, identify all declared tool dependencies and their version thresholds from the pipeline's documentation and configuration templates (e.g., config-install.txt). Create or edit a configuration file (such as config-install.txt) to specify either full paths to tool binaries or leave version fields unset to allow automatic detection via the system PATH using the 'which' command. Then execute the pipeline's dependency-checking build target (e.g., 'make CONFIG_SYS=config-install.txt install') which validates tool availability against declared version constraints and generates a resolved configuration file (e.g., config-system.txt) recording the paths and versions of tools actually found. Finally, inspect the generated system configuration file to confirm that all tools at minimum required versions were detected and recorded, indicating readiness for pipeline stages that depend on those tools.

bioinformatics-tool-version-compatibility-assessment is a skill published in the GitHub repository HolobiomicsLab/asb-skill-collections (15 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 1,842 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
