bio-crispr-screens-screen-qc

bio-crispr-screens-screen-qc is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 173 tokens per session (6,509 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-crispr-screens-screen-qc, MIT.

A quality-checking guide for pooled CRISPR screens, experiments that test many gene-targeting guides at once. It covers library balance, read depth, replicate agreement, and biological signal.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to measure guide representation, replicate correlation, Gini index, essential-gene recovery, copy-number effects, and other screen quality indicators.
Why use it?
It helps identify weak, biased, or unreliable screens before choosing gene hits, so failed experiments are not mistaken for meaningful results.

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-crispr-screens-screen-qc 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/screen_qc.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.

Origin

This is a copy

95% identical to bio-crispr-screens-screen-qc — 12 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 371 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: MAGeCK 0.5+ (count + VISPR), MAGeCKFlute 2.0+ (R), pandas 2.2+, numpy 1.26+, scikit-learn 1.4+, matplotlib 3.8+, seaborn 0.13+.

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

  • CLI: mageck --version then mageck count --help; R: packageVersion('MAGeCKFlute')
  • R: packageVersion('MAGeCKFlute') then ?BatchRemove / ?FluteRRA

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

CRISPR Screen Quality Control

"Audit my CRISPR screen quality before hit calling" -> Assess library representation, replicate concordance, depth, drift, and biological signal recovery using DepMap-grade metrics, then decide whether the screen is usable, salvageable, or must be repeated.

  • Python: pandas + scikit-learn for Gini, AUC, PCA; MAGeCKFlute (R) for one-shot QC dashboard
  • CLI: mageck count writes Gini and mapping stats unconditionally to <prefix>.countsummary.txt (GiniIndex, Reads, Mapped, Percentage); MAGeCK-VISPR for an interactive dashboard

QC Stage Hierarchy

A pooled screen has six distinct bottlenecks where complexity can collapse. Audit each:

Stage Metric Acceptable threshold Failure consequence
Plasmid pool Gini, skew, % zero-count guides Gini <0.1, skew <2 (Joung 2017 states <10), zero <0.5% Missing guides cannot be screened; dropout indistinguishable from non-coverage
Day-0 infection Library coverage, MOI verification ≥99% guide detection at 500x cells/sgRNA; MOI 0.3 Founder effects; polyclonality with high MOI
Selection (puro/blast) % cells surviving, time-course Gini 30-40% survival at 5-7 days; Gini drift <0.05 Selection artifact; fast-growers enriched
Endpoint Replicate correlation, depth Pearson >=0.8 on log-counts (MAGeCK-VISPR floor), Spearman >0.7-0.8, >500 reads/sgRNA (Joung 2017 screening) Noise dominates; FDR inflates
Biological signal CEGv2 PR-AUC, NEGv1 false-positive rate PR-AUC >0.7 at FDR 5% (community "passing" convention); CEGv2 enrichment in top 1k Screen lacks essentiality signal; hits not credible
Copy-number artifact Amplified-region enrichment, sgRNA-cut-count correlation No correlation between sgRNA off-target count and depletion False-positive essentiality at amplicons; ERBB2 in HER2+ etc.

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.
