What it does

Bioconductor Tanggle is an agent skill from bioMate-AI/biomate-bioconductor-kb. Offers functions for plotting split (or implicit) networks (unrooted, undirected) and explicit networks (rooted, directed) with reticulations extending. 'ggtree' and using functions from 'ape' and 'phangorn'. It extends the 'ggtree' package [@Yu2017] to allow the visualization of phylogenetic networks using the 'ggplot2' syntax. It offers an alternative to the plot functions already available in 'ape' Paradis and Schliep (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/bty633 and 'phangorn' Schliep (2011) <d

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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, covering Bioinformatics and Data visualization. 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 Data visualization

Example prompts

  • “ggtree”
  • “phangorn”
  • “ggplot2”
  • “/bioconductor-tanggle”

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 Tanggle loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 130 tokens; SKILL.md has 389 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
~1.1k

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 389 words (~1,114 tokens).

“Visualize unrooted, undirected split networks (such as consensus networks or neighbor-nets) from Nexus files.”
