bio-chipseq-chromatin-state-segmentation

bio-chipseq-chromatin-state-segmentation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 190 tokens per session (4,276 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-chipseq-chromatin-state-segmentation, MIT.

A workflow that divides the genome into recurring chromatin states, such as active promoters, enhancers, or repressed regions, using several histone-mark datasets. Histone marks are chemical signals associated with different kinds of genome activity.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn chromatin states, assign genomic regions to those states, and examine how often states occur or change between samples.
Why use it?
It combines multiple measurements into a simpler map, making broad patterns of genome regulation easier to compare across samples.

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-chipseq-chromatin-state-segmentation 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/chromhmm_pipeline.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.

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.

Chromatin State Segmentation

"Integrate multiple histone modification ChIP-seq tracks into chromatin states" -> Learn a small set of recurring combinatorial patterns of histone marks (active promoter, active enhancer, poised enhancer, polycomb-repressed, heterochromatic, transcribed, etc.) and segment the genome by which state each region belongs to. Output: per-state genomic intervals, state-by-mark emission matrix, and state-state transition matrix.

  • CLI (canonical): ChromHMM BinarizeBam -> LearnModel -> OverlapEnrichment / NeighborhoodEnrichment
  • CLI (continuous signal): Segway train -> posterior -> annotate
  • CLI (flexible distributions): EpiSegMix (2024)
  • Visualization across biosamples: EpiLogos (Meuleman lab)
  • Cell-type-aware joint: IDEAS

Chromatin state segmentation requires a panel of histone marks; minimum 4-5 marks (e.g., H3K4me3, H3K27ac, H3K4me1, H3K36me3, H3K27me3) for meaningful states. With fewer marks, simpler peak-based annotation (chipseq/peak-annotation) is more appropriate.

Tool Taxonomy

Tool Method Strength Fails when
ChromHMM (Ernst & Kellis 2012; v1.27 current) Multivariate HMM on binarized 200 bp bins Canonical; widely used; integrated with Roadmap Epigenomics 15-state model; mature toolchain Binarization throws away signal quantitation; default 200 bp bins may be too coarse for sharp boundaries
Segway (Hoffman 2012) Dynamic Bayesian Network on continuous signal Higher resolution; uses signal magnitudes not binarized More complex setup; slower; less standardized output
EpiSegMix (Schmitz, Aggarwal, Laufer, Walter, Salhab, Rahmann 2024 Bioinformatics 40:btae178) HMM with flexible read-count distributions + duration modeling Modern; handles both narrow and broad mark distributions in one model Newer; smaller user base
EpiLogos (Meuleman lab) Multi-biosample visualization tool Built on top of ChromHMM/Segway segmentations; compare ChromHMM states across 100s of biosamples Visualization tool, not a segmentation method itself
IDEAS (Zhang 2016) Cell-type-aware joint inference Across-cell-type segmentation respecting cell-type identity Slower; complex parameter tuning
EpiCSeg (Mammana 2015) Negative binomial mixture Read-count-based; doesn't need binarization Less standardized output
GenoSTAN HMM with various emission distributions Flexible Less actively developed
Roadmap 25-state model (Kundaje 2015) ChromHMM 25-state precomputed model Reference for cross-cell-type interpretation Requires the Roadmap imputed 12-mark panel
Full-stack ChromHMM (Vu Ernst 2022) 100-state segmentation across 1032 datasets / 127 reference epigenomes Comprehensive cross-tissue annotation Computationally intensive to retrain

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.
