What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d91ed3d. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • mixcr.com

    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 Tcr Bcr Analysis Mixcr Analysis loads about 4.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 216 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,892 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~216

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: MiXCR 4.7+ (Java 17)

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

  • CLI: mixcr --version (also prints the JVM) then mixcr <command> --help to confirm flags

If a command errors with an unknown-flag, unknown-preset, or missing-license message, run mixcr <command> --help and mixcr exportPreset --preset-name <name> and adapt rather than retrying.

Note: MiXCR 4.x is a rearchitecture of 3.x. The hand-built mixcr analyze amplicon/analyze shotgun pipelines are GONE, replaced by mixcr analyze <preset>; correctAndSortTags became refineTagsAndSort; AIRR export moved to a dedicated mixcr exportAirr. Current 4.x needs Java 17 and an activated license (see the licensing gate below). Any 3.x tutorial is stale.

MiXCR Analysis

"Extract TCR/BCR clonotypes from my sequencing data" -> align raw reads to V/D/J/C germline, collapse molecules/cells by barcode, and assemble reads into clonotypes keyed on CDR3 + V + J.

  • CLI: mixcr analyze <preset> runs the whole ordered pipeline; the underlying stages (align -> refineTagsAndSort -> assemblePartial/extend -> assemble -> assembleCells -> exportClones/exportAirr -> qc) can be run by hand for control.

The governing principle: the preset IS the analysis, and the wrong one fails silently

In MiXCR 4.x there is no default-correct pipeline. Correctness is ~90% preset choice plus library-chemistry match. mixcr analyze <preset> expands the preset into an ordered stage list encoding material (RNA vs DNA), 5'/3' alignment-boundary behavior (rigid vs floating), the barcode tag pattern, the assembling feature, and species defaults. The wrong preset does NOT raise an error -- it emits plausible-but-wrong clonotypes: a mismatched RNA/DNA model or boundary model mis-places V/J boundaries and truncates CDR3; a UMI kit run without a tag pattern skips barcode collapse and inflates diversity with PCR/sequencing artifacts. Because the failure is silent, the load-bearing skill is choosing and AUDITING the preset. Dump exactly what a preset does with mixcr exportPreset --preset-name <name> (full resolved parameter YAML), and confirm chemistry with mixcr exportQc align/chainUsage after the run. A clonotype is an analyst choice, not a fact: it is CDR3 (+ V + J) at a chosen boundary (assembling feature), counted in a chosen denominator (reads vs UMIs vs cells) -- every downstream number depends on these.

Licensing gate (do this first, or every run fails)

MiXCR 4.x refuses to run any analysis command until a license is activated -- the single most common reason a copied 3.x recipe fails today. Academic/non-profit use is free (obtain a key at platforma.bio/getlicense); for-profit use needs a business license. Activate by any one of:

  • mixcr activate-license then paste the key (interactive).
  • Place mi.license (or ~/.mi.license) in ~/, next to mixcr.jar, or next to the executable.
  • Set MI_LICENSE=<key content> or MI_LICENSE_FILE=/path/mi.license (best for HPC/Docker/CI).

MiXCR also validates the key over the internet periodically. On air-gapped or firewalled compute nodes, whitelist IPv4 75.2.96.100 and 99.83.215.63 (and the corresponding IPv6) or arrange an offline license, or a job silently stalls waiting on egress.

Preset selection by library type

The preset must match the exact wet-lab chemistry. Inspect the built-in list with mixcr exportPreset and the docs; verify current names against mixcr analyze --help since MiLaboratories occasionally renames presets between minor releases.

For generic-* presets --species <hsa|mmu|...> is REQUIRED (forgetting it fails or misaligns). xcr presets cover TCR and BCR together; single-chain presets (trb, ig) cover one locus. For gamma-delta (TRG/TRD), use the same generic/kit presets and restrict chains at export with -c TRG / -c TRD (or a gd-specific kit preset if the wet-lab kit targets gd); note that a gd repertoire is invisible if the library only primed alpha-beta.

Pipeline stages and where each one fails

mixcr analyze <preset> R1.fastq.gz R2.fastq.gz out_prefix runs the ordered stages below; the preset is embedded in the binary .vdjca/.clns files so hand-run commands only name the preset on align.

StageCommandPurposeCommon failure

QCmixcr qc, mixcr exportQc align/chainUsageAlignment rate, chain composition, tag coverageNot run -> silent quality problems pass downstream

From MiXCR 4.7, presets that do not intrinsically define an assembling feature REQUIRE --assemble-clonotypes-by <feature> (e.g. CDR3, VDJRegion); older tutorials that omit it now error. CDR3 is the robust default on short reads; VDJRegion needs reads/contigs spanning V-through-J and keeps SHM variants separate (useful for BCR full-length).

The quantitation denominator: reads vs UMIs vs cells

Clonotype abundance is only meaningful relative to the chemistry. Report the right unit or reintroduce the bias the chemistry was meant to remove:

  • Non-UMI bulk: abundance = readCount (cloneCount is an alias). PCR-amplification biased -- not a molecule count.
  • UMI bulk: after refineTagsAndSort, report uniqueMoleculeCount (generic form uniqueTagCount Molecule), NOT reads. Reporting reads on a UMI library re-adds the amplification bias the UMIs removed.
  • Single-cell: the unit is the CELL (uniqueTagCount Cell / cellGroup), not reads or UMIs.

Export: native MiXCR fields vs AIRR

MiXCR's native export headers are NOT AIRR or VDJtools names. Downstream renaming to a chosen schema is a user-side step; the field names to select from MiXCR are its own.

bash
mixcr exportClones -c TRB \
    -cloneId -readCount -readFraction -uniqueMoleculeCount \
    -nSeqCDR3 -aaSeqCDR3 -bestVGene -bestJGene -allVHitsWithScore -isProductive VRegion \
    clones.clns clones_TRB.tsv

Key native fields: cloneId, readCount/readFraction (aliases cloneCount/cloneFraction), uniqueMoleculeCount, nSeqCDR3/aaSeqCDR3 (CDR3 nt/aa -- the headline fields), bestVGene/bestJGene/bestCGene (gene-level), bestVHit (allele-level best), allVHitsWithScore (full hit list), isProductive <feature>. Filter flags: -c/--chains TRB, -o (drop out-of-frame), -t (drop stops), --export-productive-clones-only.

For AIRR-schema interchange (Immcantation, scirpy, any AIRR tool) use the dedicated command, which emits sequence_id, v_call, d_call, j_call, junction, junction_aa, productive, duplicate_count, cell_id:

bash
mixcr exportAirr clones.clns clones.airr.tsv

Field-name traps (do NOT use as MiXCR selectors): count/frequency/cdr3_aa/vGene are VDJtools/AIRR conventions, not MiXCR headers. A downstream tool expecting AIRR names should be fed exportAirr output, not renamed native output.

The D-gene caveat: never key or trust the D call in TRB/IGH

Dbeta and Dh segments are short (~12-16 nt) and heavily trimmed at both ends with N-additions between; the surviving germline-matchable D stretch is often 0-5 nt, statistically indistinguishable from random junctional nucleotides. A substantial fraction of TRB rearrangements have no detectable D at all (de Greef & de Boer 2021 PNAS 118:e2104367118), and any "longest germline D match" over-calls D by chance. Treat bestDGene/allDHitsWithScore as unreliable: never use the D call as a clonotype key, never stratify biology by D usage without heavy skepticism, and expect large tool-to-tool D disagreement. Clonotypes are keyed on CDR3 + V + J -- not D. This caveat is TRB- and IGH-specific: the TRD (delta) chain can incorporate one to two D segments in tandem, giving more germline D content than TRB's single heavily-trimmed D, so the D call is more informative for gamma-delta work (the junction is still highly diverse from N-additions).

QC: match preset to chemistry, catch cross-contamination

bash
mixcr qc clones.clns
mixcr exportQc align results/*.clns qc_align.pdf
mixcr exportQc chainUsage results/*.clns qc_chainUsage.pdf

Read exportQc align: targeted amplicon should align high (often >80-90%); a low rate signals wrong species/library/boundaries or untrimmed primers, and "absent CDR3" means reads too short or wrong boundaries. RNA-seq mining legitimately aligns a tiny fraction (only receptor-overlapping reads) -- judge it by absolute clonotype yield, not %. Read chainUsage: a TRB library showing appreciable IGH signals cross-contamination or index hopping on patterned flowcells. A huge reads-to-clonotypes drop (millions -> thousands, worse after UMI collapse) is normal; a tiny clone count with high alignment suggests over-aggressive filtering or a wrong assembling feature.
