Build circular genome visualizations using circlize (R), pyCirclize (Python), or Circos (Perl CLI) with ideogram tracks, multi-data tracks (scatter, histogram, heatmap), chord/link arcs for interactions, and explicit circos.clear() between plots. Covers when circular is appropriate vs when Cartesian wins (Cleveland-McGill 1984), karyograms, and chromosome adjacency in chord diagrams. Use when adjacency on the circle conveys meaning — chromosome-level overview, structural variants, Hi-C interact…

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/'bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named bio-data-visualization-circos-plots already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/lilinji/GeneTind-Life-Skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '908229c955510a1841b216e8bf58f6b22818d4dc' -- 'skills/bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' ~/.agents/skills/'bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' && 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/'bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' ~/.claude/skills/'bio-data-visualization-circos-plots' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
