Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

CLI toolkit for SAM/BAM/CRAM: sort, index, convert, filter, QC alignments. Core commands: view, sort, index, flagstat, stats, depth, markdup, merge. Required between alignment and variant/peak calling. Use pysam for Python-native BAM access; deeptools for normalized coverage tracks.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'samtools-bam-processing' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'samtools-bam-processing' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named samtools-bam-processing already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '8cbdd18837aa6296c4e77616a03b323bd69b57b1' -- 'skills/sciagent/samtools-bam-processing' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/sciagent/samtools-bam-processing' ~/.agents/skills/'samtools-bam-processing' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'samtools-bam-processing' ~/.claude/skills/'samtools-bam-processing' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
