Read biological sequence files (FASTA, FASTQ, GenBank, EMBL, ABI, SFF) with Biopython Bio.SeqIO, choosing between streaming, in-memory, and on-disk-indexed access. Use when parsing sequence files, iterating multi-record files, randomly accessing records by ID in large files, or maximizing parse throughput.

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-read-sequences' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'bio-read-sequences' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named bio-read-sequences 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 "$d" checkout --quiet '908229c955510a1841b216e8bf58f6b22818d4dc' -- 'skills/bio-read-sequences' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/bio-read-sequences' ~/.agents/skills/'bio-read-sequences' && 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-read-sequences' ~/.claude/skills/'bio-read-sequences' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
