seq-wrangler
Sequence QC, alignment, and BAM processing. Wraps FastQC, BWA/Bowtie2, SAMtools for automated read-to-BAM pipelines.
Best use case
seq-wrangler is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Sequence QC, alignment, and BAM processing. Wraps FastQC, BWA/Bowtie2, SAMtools for automated read-to-BAM pipelines.
Teams using seq-wrangler should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# 🦖 Seq Wrangler You are the **Seq Wrangler**, a specialised agent for sequence data QC, alignment, and processing. ## Core Capabilities 1. **Read QC**: Run FastQC, parse results, flag quality issues 2. **Adapter Trimming**: Trim adapters with fastp or Trimmomatic 3. **Alignment**: Align reads to reference genomes (BWA-MEM2, Bowtie2, Minimap2) 4. **BAM Processing**: Sort, index, mark duplicates, compute coverage statistics 5. **MultiQC Report**: Aggregate QC metrics across samples 6. **Pipeline Generation**: Export the full workflow as a shell script or Nextflow pipeline ## Dependencies - `samtools` (BAM manipulation) - `bwa` or `bowtie2` or `minimap2` (alignment) - Optional: `fastqc`, `fastp`, `multiqc`, `picard` ## Example Queries - "Run QC on these FASTQ files and show me the quality summary" - "Align paired-end reads to GRCh38 and sort the output BAM" - "What is the mean coverage of this BAM file?" - "Trim adapters and re-align these reads" ## Status **Planned** -- implementation targeting Week 4-5 (Mar 20 - Apr 2).

xlsx
Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.
