bio-chipseq-peak-calling

bio-chipseq-peak-calling is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 138 tokens per session (5,633 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-chipseq-peak-calling, MIT.

A guide for finding enriched DNA regions in ChIP-seq data. ChIP-seq measures where a protein or chemical mark is associated with DNA, and peak calling identifies likely binding sites or marked regions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Calling narrow or broad peaks from aligned reads, comparing them with input controls, and assessing reproducibility across samples.
Why use it?
It helps separate meaningful signal from background noise and choose settings suited to narrow protein-binding sites or broad histone marks.

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-peak-calling 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 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/macs3_peak_calling.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 287 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: MACS3 3.0.4+, MACS2 2.2.9+, HOMER 4.11+, SPP 1.16+, samtools 1.19+, bedtools 2.31+, IDR 2.0.4+.

Before running, verify versions: <tool> --version and <tool> --help to confirm flags. If a flag is missing, check the changelog — MACS2->MACS3 is API-compatible for callpeak but predictd, bdgpeakcall, and hmmratac differ.

ChIP-seq Peak Calling

"Identify protein-DNA binding sites from ChIP-seq alignments" -> Detect statistically enriched genomic regions by comparing IP signal to input control (or genomic background), with peak shape (narrow/broad) determined by target biology (TF vs histone mark).

  • CLI (ENCODE TF default): macs2 callpeak -t chip.bam -c input.bam -f BAM -g hs -n sample --keep-dup all -p 1e-2
  • CLI (ENCODE histone default): same with --broad --broad-cutoff 0.1 for H3K27me3, H3K9me3, H3K36me3
  • CLI (alternative): macs3 callpeak ... (API-identical, active development), HOMER findPeaks tags/ -style histone -i input_tags/, SPP via phantompeakqualtools wrapper

ENCODE TF pipeline still uses SPP for peak ranking + IDR, with MACS2 producing the signal tracks. Histone pipeline uses MACS2 + naive overlap (IDR is too conservative for histone signal dynamic range). MACS3 is the actively maintained successor; MACS2 receives only bug fixes.

Critical Pre-Call Validation

Before any peak calling, three things must be true or the output is unreliable:

  1. Antibody validated — KO/KD orthogonal control, peptide-array specificity for histone modifications, or vendor-provided CRISPR-validated lot (Epicypher, CST). "ChIP-grade" marketing is not validation. See chipseq-qc.
  2. Fragment-size distribution is sane — TF ChIP should show sub-nucleosomal (~50-100 bp) enrichment; histone ChIP should show clean mono- (~150) and di-nucleosomal (~300) peaks. Flat distribution = over-sonication; rescue is impossible. Check via samtools view -f 0x2 sample.bam | awk '{print $9}' | sort | uniq -c.
  3. Input control matches — Sonicated input is biased toward open chromatin; MNase input toward nucleosomes. Input from a different library prep batch or fragmentation method introduces bias that subtraction cannot fix.

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.
