What it does
Bioconductor Hicexperiment is an agent skill from bioMate-AI/biomate-bioconductor-kb. R generic interface to Hi-C contact matrices in .(m)cool, .hic or HiC-Pro derived formats, as well as other Hi-C processed file formats. Contact matrices can be partially parsed using a random access method, allowing a memory-efficient representation of Hi-C data in R. The HiCExperiment class stores the Hi-C contacts parsed from local contact matrix files. HiCExperiment instances can be further investigated in R using the HiContacts analysis package.
Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Research & Science. The repository describes itself as: BioMate-KB Bioconductor Skills — 200 packages (top 100 by downloads + 100 rising stars) as vignette-grounded Claude/agent skills, with per-package workflow recipes.

Example prompts
- “/bioconductor-hicexperiment”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c9bd4d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
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.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are r).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
bioconductor.org
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Bioconductor Hicexperiment loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 123 tokens; SKILL.md has 346 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.
Safety
Auto-check passed
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 346 words (~1,027 tokens).
“Input: A path to a .cool, .mcool, .hic, or HiC-Pro contact matrix file. Output: A parsed HiCExperiment object containing contact frequencies, genomic bins, and metadata.”
