bio-causal-genomics-heritability-partitioning

bio-causal-genomics-heritability-partitioning is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 186 tokens per session (9,780 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-causal-genomics-heritability-partitioning, MIT.

A research workflow for estimating SNP heritability and showing how genetic influence is distributed across biological annotations, cell types, or genomic regions. SNP heritability is the share of trait variation associated with measured genetic markers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with GWAS results or individual-level genotypes to estimate overall or local heritability, compare functional annotations and cell types, and analyse genomic regions with methods such as LDSC, LDAK, BOLT-REML, GCTA, or HESS.
Why use it?
A single heritability estimate does not show which parts of the genome or which biological systems contribute to a trait. Partitioning breaks the estimate into categories that can suggest relevant tissues, cell types, or genomic regions.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is # bins; download BaselineLD.zip (96 annotations) from dougspeed.com/resources and extract to ./BaselineLD/BaselineLD{1..96} (the run uses the first 86)..

Good fit Use it with GWAS results or individual-level genotypes to estimate overall or local heritability, compare functional annotations and cell types, and analyse genomic regions with methods such as LDSC, LDAK, BOLT-REML, GCTA, or HESS.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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-causal-genomics-heritability-partitioning scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/ldak_sumher.sh, scripts/ldsc_partitioned_h2.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 460 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: LDSC v1.0.1+ (Python 3 fork; prefer abdenlab/ldsc-python3 v2.0.0 which retains the working --h2 / --rg / --h2-cts CLI -- belowlab/ldsc v3.0.1 explicitly broke that CLI per its README and is best run via Docker jtb114/ldsc:latest), LDAK 6.0+, BOLT-LMM 2.4.1+, GCTA 1.94+, HESS 0.5.4+, HDL 1.4.0+ (R; GitHub zhenin/HDL), Popcorn 1.0+ (Python; brielin/Popcorn), baselineLD_v2.2 annotations (alkesgroup.broadinstitute.org/LDSCORE).

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

  • Python: pip show <package> then python3 -c 'import <module>; help(<module>)'
  • R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name
  • CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help

LDSC's official repository (bulik/ldsc) is Python 2.7 only and unmaintained since 2019; use the Python 3 community forks. If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or a "category not found" error in the LD score file, introspect the installed binary and the actual LD-score column headers rather than retrying.

Heritability Partitioning

"Estimate SNP heritability and partition it across functional categories, cell types, and loci" -> Decompose h2_SNP from GWAS summary statistics (or individual-level genotypes) into contributions from baseline annotations (coding, conserved, regulatory), tissue-specific chromatin marks, and per-locus components, then reconcile model-dependent enrichment estimates across LDSC and LDAK. Tool choice is a decision about the regime (summary-stat vs individual-level; one-trait vs two-trait genetic correlation; total vs partitioned vs local) and the model assumption about how per-SNP heritability scales with LD, MAF, and functional annotation (GCTA model vs LDAK-Thin vs baseline-LD).
