bio-clinical-databases-somatic-signatures

bio-clinical-databases-somatic-signatures is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 149 tokens per session (7,540 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-clinical-databases-somatic-signatures, MIT.

A bioinformatics workflow that identifies mutational signatures, which are recurring patterns of DNA changes in cancer that can suggest how the damage occurred.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to extract and assign COSMIC mutational signatures from tumor VCF files and investigate cancer-related DNA-damage processes.
Why use it?
It turns tumor sequencing data into evidence about processes such as DNA repair failure, mismatch-repair defects, ultraviolet exposure, or tobacco damage.

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-clinical-databases-somatic-signatures 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/sigprofiler_analysis.py), 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 — 398 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: SigProfilerMatrixGenerator 1.2+ (Bergstrom 2019), SigProfilerExtractor 1.1.24+ (Islam 2022), SigProfilerAssignment 0.1+ (Diaz-Gay 2023), MutationalPatterns 3.12+ (Manders 2022), MuSiCal 0.7+ (Jin 2024), SigNet (Serrano 2023, bioRxiv), HRDetect (Davies 2017 / Degasperi 2022 implementations), pandas 2.2+, R 4.3+. COSMIC v3.4 (2023, COSMIC v98): 86 SBS, 11 DBS, 18 ID, 21 CN, 16 SV signatures (v3.6 is the current catalog as of 2026).

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

  • Python: pip show <package> then help(module.function) to check signatures
  • R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying. COSMIC signature naming evolves: SBS40 was split to SBS40a/b/c in v3.4 (Senkin 2024); SBS17 split to SBS17a/b (5-FU); SBS10 split to SBS10a-d (POLE/POLD1).

Somatic Mutational Signatures; Etiology, Extraction, Clinical Use

'Extract mutational signatures from this tumor cohort and identify HRD/MMR/APOBEC processes' -> Generate 96-context (or DBS/ID/CN/SV) matrix from VCF; choose de novo extraction (NMF) vs refit-to-COSMIC by cohort size; map dominant signatures to etiology; flag clinical actionability.

  • Python (recommended): SigProfilerMatrixGenerator -> SigProfilerExtractor (de novo) or SigProfilerAssignment (refit)
  • R alternative: MutationalPatterns::fit_to_signatures() (strict refit) or extract_signatures() (NMF de novo)
  • Python (mvNMF for non-uniqueness): MuSiCal (Jin 2024 Nat Genet)
  • Python (deep learning low-mutation count): SigNet (Serrano 2023)
  • R (HRD-specific): HRDetect (Davies 2017 Nat Med); the 6-feature BRCA-deficiency classifier

COSMIC v3.4 Catalog: Evolution and Composition

Class Count Encoding
SBS (Single Base Substitutions) 86 96 trinucleotide contexts (6 substitution types x 16 trinucleotides)
DBS (Doublet Base Substitutions) 11 78 strand-agnostic doublet classes (Bergstrom 2019)
ID (Insertion/Deletion) 18 83 categories (indel length x repeat context x microhomology)
CN (Copy Number) 21 48 channels (total CN x heterozygosity x segment length; Steele 2022 Nature)
SV (Structural Variants) 16 32 channels (cluster x length x type)

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.
