What it does

Bioconductor Ptairms is an agent skill from bioMate-AI/biomate-bioconductor-kb. This package implements a suite of methods to preprocess data from PTR-TOF-MS instruments (HDF5 format) and generates the 'sample by features' table of peak intensities in addition to the sample and feature metadata (as a single ExpressionSet object for subsequent statistical analysis). This package also permit usefull tools for cohorts management as analyzing data progressively, visualization tools and quality control. The steps include calibration, expiration detection, peak detection and qua

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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 Data & Analytics, covering Performance reviews, Data analysis and Statistics. 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.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Performance reviews
  • Tasks that involve Data analysis
  • Tasks that involve Statistics

Example prompts

  • “sample by features”
  • “/bioconductor-ptairms”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the raw file using readRaw (exactly as documented)
  2. Perform calibration on the single raw object
  3. Determine time limits (expiration/headspace limits)
  4. Write named output files for the meaningful results

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 Ptairms loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 130 tokens; SKILL.md has 542 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~130
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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 542 words (~1,524 tokens).

“Preprocess a directory of raw PTR-TOF-MS HDF5 files to calibrate, detect peaks, align samples, impute missing values, annotate VOCs, and export an ExpressionSet.”
