At a glance

Filter and select sequences by criteria (length, ID, GC content, patterns) using Biopython.

  • Subsetting sequences
  • SKILL.md covers Version Compatibility, Required Imports, Core Pattern and Filter by Length, plus 7 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls pip
  • Removing unwanted records

What it does

Bio Filter Sequences is an agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills. Filter and select sequences by criteria (length, ID, GC content, patterns) using Biopython. Use when subsetting sequences, removing unwanted records, or selecting by specific criteria.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `examples/filter_seqs.py` and `usage-guide.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Bioinformatics. It works with Biopython. The repository describes itself as: The largest open-source medical AI skills library for OpenClaw🦞.

When your agent uses it

  • Subsetting sequences
  • Removing unwanted records
  • Selecting by specific criteria

Example prompts

  • “/bio-filter-sequences”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b1f9b6e. 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

    Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Bio Filter Sequences loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 354 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 354 words (~1,903 tokens).
