bio-copy-number-cnv-visualizationVisualize copy number profiles, segments, allele-specific tracks, and cohort patterns from CNVkit, GATK, ASCAT, FACETS, Sequenza, and other callers.
Bio Copy Number Cnv Visualization is an agent skill from GPTomics/bioSkills. Visualize copy number profiles, segments, allele-specific tracks, and cohort patterns from CNVkit, GATK, ASCAT, FACETS, Sequenza, and other callers. Covers genome-wide and per-chromosome log2 scatter plots, B-allele-frequency/minor-allele-fraction tracks, ideograms, cohort heatmaps, circos views, and caller-native plots. Use when creating publication CNV figures, choosing which plot answers a given question, diagnosing a wrong diploid baseline visually, displaying loss of heterozygosity, or deciding what…
Its SKILL.md is about 3.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `examples/plot_cnv.py` and `usage-guide.md`).
It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Bioinformatics. It works with Matplotlib. The repository describes itself as: a set of SKILLS.md for doing bioinformatics with agents like claude code. The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d91ed3d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pipFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
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.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Bio Copy Number Cnv Visualization loads about 3.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 144 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,052 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.
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.

"Plot my copy number profile" -> A CNV figure is an argument, not a picture. The plot type, the y-axis quantity, and where the diploid baseline sits all determine what the reader can conclude. The single most important rule: a depth-only log2 plot cannot show loss of heterozygosity, cannot show tumor purity, and silently misleads if the diploid baseline is centered on a non-diploid mode.
cnvkit.py scatter / diagram / heatmap; gatk PlotModeledSegmentsmatplotlib for custom genome-wide and allele-specific tracksggplot2, karyoploteR for publication ideograms| Plot | Answers | Reveals | Cannot show |
|---|---|---|---|
| Genome-wide log2 scatter + segments | Where are the gains/losses? | Focal vs broad events, noise level | LOH, purity, allele-specific state |
| Per-chromosome scatter | Is this focal event real and where are its boundaries? | Breakpoints, bin support, weight | Absolute CN without purity |
| BAF / minor-allele-fraction track | Is there allelic imbalance / LOH? | CN-neutral LOH, mirrored imbalance | Total copy number alone |
| Combined log2 + BAF (two-panel) | What is the allele-specific state? | Gains vs CN-LOH vs balanced | — (this is the complete view) |
| Cohort heatmap | What is recurrent across samples? | Shared arm/focal events | Per-sample breakpoint detail |
| Ideogram / diagram | Where do events sit relative to cytobands/genes? | Gene-level context | Quantitative amplitude |
| Circos | Genome-wide CNV + SV breakpoints together | CNV-SV co-localization | Fine amplitude detail |
| Caller-native (GATK/ASCAT/FACETS) | Did the caller fit correctly? | Model fit, segment confidence | — (diagnostic, not publication) |
The decision rule: if the biological question involves LOH, allele-specific gain, or whole-genome doubling, a log2-only plot is insufficient — pair it with a BAF track.

--sequence-dictionary reference.dict --output-prefix tumor -O plots/ASCAT (ascat.runAscat ASPCF and sunrise plots), Sequenza (sequenza.results chromosome view and the cellularity/ploidy contour), and FACETS (plotSample) emit diagnostic plots — always inspect these to confirm the purity/ploidy fit before trusting downstream calls. They are diagnostic, not publication, figures.
Trigger: Plotting log2 from a hyper-aneuploid or whole-genome-doubled tumor with the y-axis centered on the data median or mode.
Mechanism: If most of the genome is at tetraploid baseline, centering on the mode places 4 copies at log2 0. Every true diploid region then appears deleted and the plot tells the opposite story.
Symptom: A genome-wide pattern of "loss" (or "gain") inconsistent with the BAF track or with the caller's ploidy estimate.
Fix: Anchor the y-axis baseline to the caller's ploidy estimate, not the data mode. Always show a BAF track alongside; if BAF says balanced where log2 says deleted, the centering is wrong.
Trigger: Labeling a log2 y-axis "copy number" or comparing log2 amplitudes across samples of different purity.
Mechanism: log2 ratio compresses with decreasing purity — a true CN=4 amplification at 40% purity has roughly half the log2 amplitude of the same event at 80% purity.
Symptom: A real amplification looks weaker than a passenger gain in a purer sample; cross-sample amplitude comparisons are meaningless.
Fix: For cross-sample or absolute claims, plot integer copy number from a purity-corrected caller, not raw log2. Label log2 axes "log2 copy ratio".
Trigger: Large uniform bins (e.g. 1-3 Mb) in a cohort heatmap.
Mechanism: A focal amplification (e.g. a few hundred kb at MYC or ERBB2) is averaged with flanking neutral sequence and disappears.
Symptom: Known recurrent focal drivers absent from the heatmap; only arm-level events visible.
Fix: Use a bin size matched to the question — Mb bins for arm-level surveys, gene-centric or GISTIC peak regions for focal drivers. Consider a separate gene-level panel.
| Choice | Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| log2 y-axis range | -2 to 2 | Covers homozygous loss to ~8-copy gain; clip extreme amplicons separately |
| Gain/loss plot coloring | log2 > 0.3 / < -0.3 | Visual convention (no single primary citation); not a calling threshold (see cnvkit-analysis) |
| Cohort heatmap bin (arm-level) | ~1 Mb | Balances resolution and matrix size |
| Cohort heatmap colormap center | 0 | Diverging map must be zero-centered or gains/losses are not comparable |
| Rasterize scatter points | yes, for > ~50k bins | Keeps vector PDFs openable; segments stay vector |
| Error / symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Whole genome looks lost or gained | y-axis centered on a non-diploid mode | Anchor baseline to caller ploidy; add a BAF track |
| LOH region not visible | log2-only plot | Add a BAF / minor-allele-fraction panel |
| Focal driver missing from heatmap | Bins too large | Use gene-level or GISTIC-peak bins |
| Giant unopenable PDF | 100k+ vector scatter points | rasterized=True on the scatter |
| Chromosomes out of order / overlapping | String-sorted contig names | Explicit chromosome order list |
| Amplitudes incomparable across samples | Plotting raw log2 across mixed purity | Plot purity-corrected integer CN |
