Production-ready VCF processing, variant annotation, mutation analysis, and structural variant (SV/CNV) interpretation for bioinformatics questions. Parses VCF files (streaming, large files), classifies mutation types (missense, nonsense, synonymous, frameshift, splice, intronic, intergenic) and structural variants (deletions, duplications, inversions, translocations), applies VAF/depth/quality/consequence filters, annotates with ClinVar/dbSNP/gnomAD/CADD via ToolUniverse, interprets SV/CNV clinical significance using ClinGen dosage sensitivity scores, computes variant statistics, and generates reports. Solves questions like "What fraction of variants with VAF < 0.3 are missense?", "How many non-reference variants remain after filtering intronic/intergenic?", "What is the pathogenicity of this deletion affecting BRCA1?", or "Which dosage-sensitive genes overlap this CNV?". Use when processing VCF files, annotating variants, filtering by VAF/depth/consequence, classifying mutations, interpreting structural variants, assessing CNV pathogenicity, comparing cohorts, or answering variant analysis questions.

Comprehensive structural variant (SV) analysis skill for clinical genomics. Classifies SVs (deletions, duplications, inversions, translocations), assesses pathogenicity using ACMG-adapted criteria, evaluates gene disruption and dosage sensitivity, and provides clinical interpretation with evidence grading. Use when analyzing CNVs, large deletions/duplications, chromosomal rearrangements, or any structural variants requiring clinical interpretation.

Computational analysis framework for spatial multi-omics data integration. Given spatially variable genes (SVGs), spatial domain annotations, tissue type, and disease context from spatial transcriptomics/proteomics experiments (10x Visium, MERFISH, DBiTplus, SLIDE-seq, etc.), performs comprehensive biological interpretation including pathway enrichment, cell-cell interaction inference, druggable target identification, immune microenvironment characterization, and multi-modal integration. Produces a detailed markdown report with Spatial Omics Integration Score (0-100), domain-by-domain characterization, and validation recommendations. Uses 70+ ToolUniverse tools across 9 analysis phases. Use when users ask about spatial transcriptomics analysis, spatial omics interpretation, tissue heterogeneity, spatial gene expression patterns, tumor microenvironment mapping, tissue zonation, or cell-cell communication from spatial data.

Production-ready RNA-seq differential expression analysis using PyDESeq2. Performs DESeq2 normalization, dispersion estimation, Wald testing, LFC shrinkage, and result filtering. Handles multi-factor designs, multiple contrasts, batch effects, and integrates with gene enrichment (gseapy) and ToolUniverse annotation tools (UniProt, Ensembl, OpenTargets). Supports CSV/TSV/H5AD input formats and any organism. Use when analyzing RNA-seq count matrices, identifying DEGs, performing differential expression with statistical rigor, or answering questions about gene expression changes.

Analyze mass spectrometry proteomics data including protein quantification, differential expression, post-translational modifications (PTMs), and protein-protein interactions. Processes MaxQuant, Spectronaut, DIA-NN, and other MS platform outputs. Performs normalization, statistical analysis, pathway enrichment, and integration with transcriptomics. Use when analyzing proteomics data, comparing protein abundance between conditions, identifying PTM changes, studying protein complexes, integrating protein and RNA data, discovering protein biomarkers, or conducting quantitative proteomics experiments.

Analyze protein-protein interaction networks using STRING, BioGRID, and SASBDB databases. Maps protein identifiers, retrieves interaction networks with confidence scores, performs functional enrichment analysis (GO/KEGG/Reactome), and optionally includes structural data. No API key required for core functionality (STRING). Use when analyzing protein networks, discovering interaction partners, identifying functional modules, or studying protein complexes.

Analyze metabolomics data including metabolite identification, quantification, pathway analysis, and metabolic flux. Processes LC-MS, GC-MS, NMR data from targeted and untargeted experiments. Performs normalization, statistical analysis, pathway enrichment, metabolite-enzyme integration, and biomarker discovery. Use when analyzing metabolomics datasets, identifying differential metabolites, studying metabolic pathways, integrating with transcriptomics/proteomics, discovering metabolic biomarkers, performing flux balance analysis, or characterizing metabolic phenotypes in disease, drug response, or physiological conditions.

Comprehensive immune repertoire analysis for T-cell and B-cell receptor sequencing data. Analyze TCR/BCR repertoires to assess clonality, diversity, V(D)J gene usage, CDR3 characteristics, convergence, and predict epitope specificity. Integrate with single-cell data for clonotype-phenotype associations. Use for adaptive immune response profiling, cancer immunotherapy research, vaccine response assessment, autoimmune disease studies, or repertoire diversity analysis in immunology research.

Production-ready microscopy image analysis and quantitative imaging data skill for colony morphometry, cell counting, fluorescence quantification, and statistical analysis of imaging-derived measurements. Processes ImageJ/CellProfiler output (area, circularity, intensity, cell counts), performs Dunnett's test, Cohen's d effect size, power analysis, Shapiro-Wilk normality tests, two-way ANOVA, polynomial regression, natural spline regression with confidence intervals, and comparative morphometry. Supports CSV/TSV measurement tables, multi-channel fluorescence data, colony swarming assays, and neuron counting datasets. Use when analyzing microscopy measurement data, colony area/circularity, cell count statistics, swarming assays, co-culture ratio optimization, or answering questions about imaging-derived quantitative data.

Comprehensive CRISPR screen analysis for functional genomics. Analyze pooled or arrayed CRISPR screens (knockout, activation, interference) to identify essential genes, synthetic lethal interactions, and drug targets. Perform sgRNA count processing, gene-level scoring (MAGeCK, BAGEL), quality control, pathway enrichment, and drug target prioritization. Use for CRISPR screen analysis, gene essentiality studies, synthetic lethality detection, functional genomics, drug target validation, or identifying genetic vulnerabilities.
