Remove sequencing adapters from FASTQ files using Cutadapt and Trimmomatic.

  • FastQC shows adapter contamination
  • SKILL.md covers Version Compatibility, Common Adapter Sequences, Cutadapt and Trimmomatic, plus 3 more sections
  • Runs Shell scripts from its folder
  • Before alignment of short reads

What it does

Bio Read Qc Adapter Trimming is an agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills. Remove sequencing adapters from FASTQ files using Cutadapt and Trimmomatic. Supports single-end and paired-end reads, Illumina TruSeq, Nextera, and custom adapter sequences. Use when FastQC shows adapter contamination or before alignment of short reads.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `examples/trim_adapters.sh` and `usage-guide.md`).

The repository describes itself as: The largest open-source medical AI skills library for OpenClaw🦞.

When your agent uses it

  • FastQC shows adapter contamination
  • Before alignment of short reads

Example prompts

  • “/bio-read-qc-adapter-trimming”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

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 (Shell), which the agent can run.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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 Read Qc Adapter Trimming loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~71
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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 221 words (~1,494 tokens).

“Reference examples tested with: FastQC 0.12+, Trimmomatic 0.39+, cutadapt 4.4+, fastp 0.23+”
