bio-copy-number-allele-specific-copy-number

bio-copy-number-allele-specific-copy-number is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 176 tokens per session (4,399 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-copy-number-allele-specific-copy-number, MIT.

A tumor-genome analysis workflow that estimates allele-specific copy numbers, tumor purity, and ploidy. It combines read depth with B-allele frequency, which measures the balance between two inherited DNA versions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze tumor sequencing for major and minor copy numbers, loss of heterozygosity, purity, and ploidy with tools such as ASCAT, Sequenza, FACETS, PURPLE, or PureCN.
Why use it?
Read depth alone gives relative copy changes, but cannot reliably identify loss of heterozygosity, absolute copy number, or the fraction of tumor cells carrying an event.

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-copy-number-allele-specific-copy-number 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.

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.

Origin

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 249 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: ASCAT 3.1+, Sequenza 3.0+ (sequenza-utils 3.0+), FACETS 0.6+ (snp-pileup), PureCN 2.6+, R 4.3+, Python 3.10+.

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

  • R: packageVersion('ASCAT') / 'sequenza' / 'facets' / 'PureCN', then ?function
  • CLI: sequenza-utils --version, snp-pileup --help

Sequenza 3.0 depends on the copynumber Bioconductor package, REMOVED from Bioconductor 3.18+ (2023). Install a maintained fork (ShixiangWang/copynumber or igordot/copynumber) before Sequenza will load. ASCAT's GC-correction function was renamed across 2.x->3.x (ascat.GCcorrect -> ascat.correctLogR) — verify against the installed version.

Allele-Specific Copy Number

"How many copies of each allele, in what fraction of cells, at what tumor purity" -> Jointly model read depth and B-allele frequency to fit tumor purity, ploidy, and integer major/minor copy number per segment. Depth alone gives only relative copy ratio; depth + BAF gives absolute allele-specific copy number. This skill is required whenever the question involves LOH, absolute copy number, purity, ploidy, or whole-genome doubling — CNVkit and GATK somatic CNV cannot answer those.

  • R: ASCAT (WGS, SNP array), sequenza (WES/WGS), facets (panel/WES/WGS), PureCN (tumor-only panel/WES)
  • CLI: purple (Hartwig WGS pipeline, with AMBER + COBALT)

The Identifiability Problem — Why This Is Hard

Purity and ploidy are not identifiable from depth alone. The same log-ratio profile is explained equally well by many (purity, ploidy) pairs: a homozygous deletion at 30% purity looks identical to a heterozygous deletion at 60% purity; an entire profile can be reinterpreted at 2x ploidy with halved purity. Every allele-specific caller breaks this degeneracy by adding BAF — allelic imbalance constrains which solution is real. The consequence: the likelihood surface is multimodal, the fit can lock onto an integer-multiple of the true ploidy, and a single point estimate must never be trusted without inspecting the fit diagnostic (ASCAT sunrise plot, Sequenza cellularity/ploidy contour, FACETS dipLogR). A documented example: the same tumor scored ploidy 4.27 by FACETS (WGS) and 2.42 by ASCAT (SNP array).

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.
