Genomics Variant Interpretation is an agent skill from aws-samples/amazon-bedrock-agents-healthcare-lifesciences, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Use when interpreting genomic variants from VCF files, performing clinical variant classification using ClinVar/VEP annotations, analyzing allele frequencies against population data (1000 Genomes), or generating clinical reports for genetic counseling.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts and reference files.
It sits in Research & Science, covering Bioinformatics and Clinical and healthcare research. The licence is MIT-0.
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9960565. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Genomics Variant Interpretation loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 426 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

.claude/skills/genomics-variant-interpretation/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder). This skill also uses 2 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.| User question | Tool | Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| Variants in specific genes | query_variants_by_gene | gene_symbols, sample_ids |
| Chromosomal region analysis | query_variants_by_chromosome | chromosome, position_range |
| Rare variant discovery | analyze_allele_frequencies | frequency_threshold |
| Cohort comparison | compare_sample_variants | sample_ids (min 2) |
| Complex/custom questions | execute_dynamic_genomics_query | user_question |
All queries automatically enforce:
qual > 30 (quality score threshold)PASS filter statusThese filters ensure only high-confidence variants enter clinical interpretation.
Classification hierarchy (act on highest applicable):
| ClinVar Significance | VEP Impact | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Pathogenic | HIGH | Immediate clinical attention |
| Pathogenic | MODERATE | Clinical attention, confirm with functional data |
| Likely_pathogenic | HIGH | Strong candidate, recommend confirmatory testing |
| Likely_pathogenic | MODERATE | Monitor, include in report |
| Uncertain_significance (VUS) | HIGH | Flag for reassessment, research interest |
| VUS | MODERATE | Monitor, periodic reclassification |
| Benign / Likely_benign | Any | No clinical action |
Priority scoring (used in query results):
Pathogenic + HIGH impact = 10
Pathogenic + MODERATE = 9
Likely_pathogenic + HIGH = 8
Likely_pathogenic + MODERATE = 7
VUS + HIGH = 6
HIGH impact (no ClinVar) = 5
VUS + MODERATE = 4
All others = 1Use analyze_allele_frequencies with 1000 Genomes data:
| Frequency category | Threshold | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Very Rare | < 0.001 (0.1%) | Potential novel pathogenic variant |
| Rare | < 0.01 (1%) | Candidate for rare disease |
| Uncommon | < 0.05 (5%) | May be population-specific |
| Common | >= 0.05 | Likely benign polymorphism |
Rule: Pathogenic variants for Mendelian diseases are almost always < 1% frequency.
Structure: Patient ID, Gene, Variant (chr:pos:ref>alt), Consequence, Impact, ClinVar significance, Population frequency (1000G AF + rarity category), Associated disease (CLNDN), Clinical interpretation, Recommended follow-up.
Input: gene_symbols ("BRCA1,BRCA2,TP53"), sample_ids (optional), include_frequency (bool)
Output: Variants with VEP annotation, ClinVar significance, priority score
Use for: Targeted gene panels, cancer predisposition, pharmacogenomicsInput: chromosome ("17"), sample_ids (optional), position_range ("32000000-33000000")
Output: All PASS variants in region with annotations
Use for: CNV analysis, specific loci investigation, regional patternsInput: sample_ids (optional), frequency_threshold (default 0.01)
Output: Variants with rarity classification, quality tiers, 1000G comparison
Use for: Rare disease analysis, novel variant discovery, population geneticsInput: sample_ids ("NA21135,NA21137" -- minimum 2)
Output: Per-sample summary: total variants, pathogenic count, impact distribution, quality metrics
Use for: Family studies, cohort stratification, trio analysisInput: user_question (natural language), sample_ids (optional)
Output: Custom SQL generated and executed against HealthOmics stores
Use for: Complex questions not covered by specialized toolsVariant data lives in AWS HealthOmics stores queried via Athena:
Stores are joined on: contigname + start + referenceallele + alternatealleles[1]

| Cancer predisposition | BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, PALB2, CHEK2, ATM | Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic | Genetic counseling referral |
| Pharmacogenomics | CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, DPYD, TPMT | Functional impact alleles | Medication dosing adjustment |

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Genomics Variant Interpretation is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Genomics Variant Interpretation is published under the MIT-0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
