sc-pathway-scoring

sc-pathway-scoring is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TianGzlab/OmicsClaw. It costs 75 tokens per session (1,965 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool that scores the activity of known gene sets in each cell. A gene set is a group of genes linked to a biological pathway or process, such as a KEGG, Reactome, or Gene Ontology pathway.

In plain words
What is it for?
Calculating per-cell and group-level scores from a GMT gene-set file or supported built-in gene-set libraries.
Why use it?
It helps compare pathway activity between cells or groups instead of looking only at individual genes.

    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

sc-pathway-scoring 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 3 executable files (sc_pathway_scoring.py, tests/test_sc_pathway_scoring_methods.py, tests/test_sc_pathway_scoring.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-pathway-scoring

When to use

The user has a normalised scRNA AnnData and a gene-set library (GMT file or one of the built-in DB aliases: hallmark, kegg, reactome, go_bp, ...) and wants per-cell scores quantifying how active each gene set is. Three methods:

  • aucell_r (default) — R-backed AUCell via decoupler-py-style bridge. Best statistical foundation; requires R env.
  • aucell_py — Python AUCell (--aucell-py-auc-threshold). Pure Python.
  • score_genes_py — Scanpy tl.score_genes per gene set. Lightest and fastest.

Output: tables/enrichment_scores.csv (cells × gene_sets), plus group-mean / group-high-fraction tables when --groupby is provided.

For bulk-style condition-vs-control GSEA / ORA on a DE table use sc-enrichment. For de-novo gene-program discovery use sc-gene-programs.

Inputs & Outputs

Inputs

  • Modalities: scrna
  • File types: .h5ad

Outputs

  • tables/aucell_scores.csv
  • tables/cell_metadata.csv
  • tables/enrichment_scores.csv
  • tables/expression_matrix.tsv
  • tables/gene_expression.csv
  • tables/gene_set_overlap.csv
  • tables/group_high_fraction.csv

  • figures/r_pathway_violin.png
  • analysis_summary.txt
  • processed.h5ad
  • report.md
  • result.json
  • Processed AnnData (saves_h5ad)

Flow

  1. Load AnnData (--input) or build a demo.
  2. Load gene sets: parse --gene-sets GMT, OR fetch via --gene-set-db <alias> and write a resolved GMT.
  3. Validate: at least one gene-set member overlaps the input features (feature_label_source chosen from var_names / var["gene_symbol"] / etc.).
  4. Run preflight; resolve --groupby (auto-pick from leiden / louvain / cell_type if unset).
  5. Dispatch to method:
    • aucell_r: shell out to bundled R script via RScriptRunner.
    • aucell_py: AUCell-Python with --aucell-py-auc-threshold.
    • score_genes_py: Scanpy tl.score_genes per gene set.
  6. Compute group-aware aggregates if --groupby is set.
  7. Save tables, figures, processed.h5ad, report.md, result.json.

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-pathway-scoring is a skill published in the GitHub repository TianGzlab/OmicsClaw (160 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 75 tokens to every session and 1,965 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
