sc-multi-count

sc-multi-count is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TianGzlab/OmicsClaw. It costs 66 tokens per session (1,265 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool that merges count matrices from several single-cell samples into one AnnData dataset and records which sample each cell came from.

In plain words
What is it for?
Combining separately counted samples into a single dataset with standard sample labels.
Why use it?
It gives downstream analyses one consistent input while preserving sample identity for comparisons and batch-aware analysis.

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

sc-multi-count 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (sc_multi_count.py, tests/test_sc_multi_count.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.

sc-multi-count

When to use

The user has run sc-count (or another counting backend) on multiple samples separately and now needs them merged into one AnnData with a canonical sample-label column for downstream batch-aware analysis. Replaces cellranger aggr for the OmicsClaw pipeline — preserves the canonical AnnData contract instead of re-counting.

  • Processed AnnData (saves_h5ad) — adds obs: sample_id

Flow

  1. Collect per-sample AnnData paths from each --input <path> flag (action="append"); paired --sample-id <id> flags assign sample labels.
  2. Load each, normalise the single-cell contract (layers["counts"], adata.raw, gene name harmonisation).
  3. Stack with explicit sample-label per cell.
  4. Write merged AnnData; emit per-sample / per-barcode summary tables.
  5. Render barcode-rank + composition figures.
  6. Emit report.md + result.json.

Gotchas

  • --input is action="append" — repeat the flag, do not comma-split. sc_multi_count.py:315 declares --input with action="append". Pass --input s1.h5ad --input s2.h5ad --input s3.h5ad; a single comma-separated value (--input s1.h5ad,s2.h5ad) is treated as one literal path that does not exist and triggers FileNotFoundError. No directory expansion.
  • At least two --input paths are required. sc_multi_count.py:335 calls parser.error("At least two --input paths required when not using --demo.") if you pass zero or one. For a single-sample run you don't need this skill — just use the upstream sc-count output directly.
  • Missing input file → hard fail. sc_multi_count.py:346 raises FileNotFoundError when any individual --input path does not resolve. In batch pipelines, a single mistyped sample name aborts the whole merge — pre-flight your file list.
  • --r-enhanced is accepted but produces no R plots. This skill emits Python figures only; the flag exists for CLI consistency.
  • No within-sample re-counting. This is a stitching skill — it stacks already-canonical AnnData objects. If a per-sample input has a non-canonical matrix layout, run sc-standardize-input on each before this; otherwise the merged contract may surface incoherent per-cell metrics downstream.

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.

sc-multi-count is a skill published in the GitHub repository TianGzlab/OmicsClaw (160 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 1,265 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
