bulkrna-read-qc

bulkrna-read-qc is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TianGzlab/OmicsClaw. It costs 71 tokens per session (1,107 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A quality check for raw FASTQ files, the standard text files containing DNA or RNA sequencing reads and their quality scores, before alignment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it on single- or paired-end bulk RNA-seq FASTQ or compressed FASTQ files to produce quality tables, charts, and a report.
Why use it?
It helps decide whether the reads need trimming by showing base quality, GC content, adapter signals, read lengths, and Q20/Q30 quality fractions.

    Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.

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

bulkrna-read-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 20d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (_api.py, bulkrna_read_qc.py, examples/example_step.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 — 137 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

bulkrna-read-qc

When to use

Read raw Phred+33 FASTQ before alignment. This implements selected quality metrics, not the complete FastQC suite. Use bulkrna-read-alignment for logs.

Use from a step

from skills._sdk.notebook import load_skill, write_output
library = load_skill('bulkrna-read-qc')
data = library.demo_data(random_state=42)
result = library.quality_control(data)
write_output(result, 'tables/qc_summary.csv')

For real files, pass read_fastq, read_log or read_reference as appropriate to read_input(..., reader=...). examples/example_step.py is executable.

API

read_fastq(path: str | Path, *, max_reads: int=100000) -> pd.DataFrame

Read FASTQ records; pass this function as reader= to read_input.

:param path: FASTQ path; a .gz suffix selects gzip decompression. :param max_reads: CLI limit 100000; increase for a larger leading-read sample. :returns: Sequence and Phred+33 quality strings as rows. :raises ValueError: Records are truncated, malformed, or have unequal sequence/quality lengths.

quality_control(reads: pd.DataFrame, *, max_reads: int=100000) -> pd.DataFrame

Compute a new one-row quality summary for Phred+33 reads.

:param reads: sequence and quality string columns; input rows are not changed. :param max_reads: CLI default 100000 leading records; increase to inspect more reads. :returns: Scalar QC metrics and adapter counts; run_info retains per-base distributions. :raises ValueError: Reads, lengths or Phred+33 scores are invalid.

run_info(result: pd.DataFrame, *, keep: bool=True) -> dict

Read full quality distributions and sampling diagnostics.

:param result: Output of quality_control. :param keep: True preserves attrs; False removes diagnostics before serialization. :returns: A separate dictionary containing metrics and sampling provenance. :raises TypeError: The result is not a DataFrame.

What ships with it

7 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.
