dependency-installation-and-verification

dependency-installation-and-verification is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HolobiomicsLab/asb-skill-collections. It costs 32 tokens per session (1,997 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup check for Hi-C analysis pipelines, which study how DNA regions interact in three dimensions. It finds required tools such as samtools, bowtie2, and Python libraries, then records their locations and versions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when preparing HiC-Pro or a similar pipeline on a new computer or server.
Why use it?
It catches missing or incompatible tools before a multi-step analysis fails partway through.

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

dependency-installation-and-verification 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 9d 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

Automatically detect, configure, and validate critical bioinformatics tool dependencies (samtools, bowtie2, Python libraries) before executing a multi-stage Hi-C processing pipeline. This skill ensures reproducibility by recording resolved tool paths and versions in a system configuration file.

When to use

When setting up HiC-Pro or similar multi-tool pipelines where tool availability and version constraints are prerequisites for downstream analysis. Use this skill at pipeline initialization time, before any data processing steps (alignment, SAM post-processing, normalization) begin, to avoid runtime failures due to missing or incompatible dependencies.

When NOT to use

  • When all dependencies are already manually installed and their paths are hardcoded in an existing config-system.txt file — skip this skill and proceed directly to pipeline execution.
  • When running HiC-Pro via a pre-built container (Docker, Singularity, conda environment) — dependency management is handled by the container image itself.
  • When working with a subset of the pipeline that does not require the full dependency chain (e.g., post-hoc normalization scripts that only need R and iced, not bowtie2).

Inputs

  • config-install.txt configuration template file
  • system PATH environment variable
  • installed tool binaries (samtools, bowtie2, Python interpreter)

Outputs

  • config-system.txt — resolved system configuration file with validated tool paths and versions
  • installation log or status report indicating which dependencies were auto-installed vs. detected

How to apply

Edit the config-install.txt file to specify full paths to required tools (samtools >=1.9, bowtie2, Python >3.7 with pysam, bx-python, numpy, scipy) or leave paths unset to trigger automatic detection via system PATH using the 'which' command. Execute 'make CONFIG_SYS=config-install.txt install' to invoke the dependency checking and configuration workflow. This command validates tool availability, resolves version requirements, and generates a config-system.txt file containing the confirmed paths and versions of all detected tools. Verify the generated config-system.txt records all required tools with appropriate versions (samtools >=1.9), confirming readiness for downstream SAM/BAM post-processing and Hi-C data normalization operations.

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.

dependency-installation-and-verification is a skill published in the GitHub repository HolobiomicsLab/asb-skill-collections (15 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 1,997 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 2026-09-03.
