gtars

gtars is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from magic3007/dotfiles. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,777 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of gtars, MIT.

A Rust toolkit with Python bindings for analysing genomic intervals, which are positions or regions on DNA. It works with formats such as BED, WIG, and BigWig and supports overlaps, coverage, reference sequences, and machine-learning preparation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to detect overlaps between genomic regions, create coverage tracks, process single-cell fragments, retrieve reference sequences, or prepare genomic data for machine learning.
Why use it?
It avoids implementing specialised genomic-region operations and file handling from scratch. It can also provide faster processing for interval-heavy workflows through Rust.

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

gtars 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 yesterday.

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.

Gtars: Genomic Tools and Algorithms in Rust

Overview

Gtars is a high-performance Rust toolkit for manipulating, analyzing, and processing genomic interval data. It provides specialized tools for overlap detection, coverage analysis, tokenization for machine learning, and reference sequence management.

Use this skill when working with:

  • Genomic interval files (BED format)
  • Overlap detection between genomic regions
  • Coverage track generation (WIG, BigWig)
  • Genomic ML preprocessing and tokenization
  • Fragment analysis in single-cell genomics
  • Reference sequence retrieval and validation

Installation

Python Installation

Install gtars Python bindings:

uv pip install gtars

CLI Installation

Install command-line tools (requires Rust/Cargo):

# Install with all features
cargo install gtars-cli --features "uniwig overlaprs igd bbcache scoring fragsplit"

# Or install specific features only
cargo install gtars-cli --features "uniwig overlaprs"

Rust Library

Add to Cargo.toml for Rust projects:

[dependencies]
gtars = { version = "0.1", features = ["tokenizers", "overlaprs"] }

Core Capabilities

Gtars is organized into specialized modules, each focused on specific genomic analysis tasks:

1. Overlap Detection and IGD Indexing

Efficiently detect overlaps between genomic intervals using the Integrated Genome Database (IGD) data structure.

When to use:

  • Finding overlapping regulatory elements
  • Variant annotation
  • Comparing ChIP-seq peaks
  • Identifying shared genomic features

Quick example:

import gtars

# Build IGD index and query overlaps
igd = gtars.igd.build_index("regions.bed")
overlaps = igd.query("chr1", 1000, 2000)

See references/overlap.md for comprehensive overlap detection documentation.

2. Coverage Track Generation

Generate coverage tracks from sequencing data with the uniwig module.

When to use:

  • ATAC-seq accessibility profiles
  • ChIP-seq coverage visualization
  • RNA-seq read coverage
  • Differential coverage analysis

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.

gtars is a skill published in the GitHub repository magic3007/dotfiles (11 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 1,777 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 98% identical to gtars, differing in 6 lines, and is treated as a copy.
