latchbio-integration

latchbio-integration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thesecondfox/skill. It costs 45 tokens per session (2,277 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of latchbio-integration, MIT.

A Latch integration for building and deploying bioinformatics workflows as serverless cloud pipelines. Latch is a Python platform for running scientific data-processing workflows, including pipelines made with Nextflow or Snakemake.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for defining workflows and tasks in Python, storing workflow files, choosing CPU, memory, or GPU resources, and deploying pipelines to Latch.
Why use it?
It helps move bioinformatics workflows from local computers into reproducible cloud jobs with managed files and configurable computing resources.

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

latchbio-integration 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 3d 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.

LatchBio Integration

Overview

Latch is a Python framework for building and deploying bioinformatics workflows as serverless pipelines. Built on Flyte, create workflows with @workflow/@task decorators, manage cloud data with LatchFile/LatchDir, configure resources, and integrate Nextflow/Snakemake pipelines.

Core Capabilities

The Latch platform provides four main areas of functionality:

1. Workflow Creation and Deployment

  • Define serverless workflows using Python decorators
  • Support for native Python, Nextflow, and Snakemake pipelines
  • Automatic containerization with Docker
  • Auto-generated no-code user interfaces
  • Version control and reproducibility

2. Data Management

  • Cloud storage abstractions (LatchFile, LatchDir)
  • Structured data organization with Registry (Projects → Tables → Records)
  • Type-safe data operations with links and enums
  • Automatic file transfer between local and cloud
  • Glob pattern matching for file selection

3. Resource Configuration

  • Pre-configured task decorators (@small_task, @large_task, @small_gpu_task, @large_gpu_task)
  • Custom resource specifications (CPU, memory, GPU, storage)
  • GPU support (K80, V100, A100)
  • Timeout and storage configuration
  • Cost optimization strategies

4. Verified Workflows

  • Production-ready pre-built pipelines
  • Bulk RNA-seq, DESeq2, pathway analysis
  • AlphaFold and ColabFold for protein structure prediction
  • Single-cell tools (ArchR, scVelo, emptyDropsR)
  • CRISPR analysis, phylogenetics, and more

Quick Start

Installation and Setup

# Install Latch SDK
python3 -m uv pip install latch

# Login to Latch
latch login

# Initialize a new workflow
latch init my-workflow

# Register workflow to platform
latch register my-workflow

Prerequisites:

  • Docker installed and running
  • Latch account credentials
  • Python 3.8+

Basic Workflow Example

from latch import workflow, small_task
from latch.types import LatchFile

@small_task
def process_file(input_file: LatchFile) -> LatchFile:
    """Process a single file"""
    # Processing logic
    return output_file

@workflow
def my_workflow(input_file: LatchFile) -> LatchFile:
    """
    My bioinformatics workflow

    Args:
        input_file: Input data file
    """
    return process_file(input_file=input_file)

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

latchbio-integration is a skill published in the GitHub repository thesecondfox/skill (3 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 2,277 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 92% identical to latchbio-integration, differing in 3 lines, and is treated as a copy.
