What it does
Bioconductor Scarray is an agent skill from bioMate-AI/biomate-bioconductor-kb. Provides large-scale single-cell omics data manipulation using Genomic Data Structure (GDS) files. It combines dense and sparse matrices stored in GDS files and the Bioconductor infrastructure framework (SingleCellExperiment and DelayedArray) to provide out-of-memory data storage and large-scale manipulation using the R programming language.
Its SKILL.md is about 970 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, covering Bioinformatics and DataFrames. 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 Bioinformatics
- Tasks that involve DataFrames
Example prompts
- “Use the bioconductor-scarray skill to provide large-scale single-cell omics data manipulation using Genomic Data Structure (GDS) files”
- “/bioconductor-scarray”
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 Scarray loads about 968 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 300 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 300 words (~968 tokens).
“Convert single-cell data to GDS format, load it as a GDS-backed SingleCellExperiment, and perform memory-efficient downstream analysis.”
