Questions, answered from the data.

What is the best bioinformatics skill?

Exploratory Data Analysis from spacering-net/codeg ranks first of the 1,169 bioinformatics skills listed here, with the highest score: its repository has 3.8k GitHub stars, 15 other GitHub owners carry a copy, its SKILL.md loads about 3.6k tokens and it passes the automated safety check with no findings. Next come Alphagenome Single Variant Analysis and 13C Metabolic Flux Analysis.

Which bioinformatics skills are official?

7 of the 1,169 bioinformatics skills are official, published by the vendor's own GitHub organization: Biomarker Database Analysis, Genomics Variant Interpretation, Hcls Build Agent, Hcls Get Started, Research Biomedical Databases and 2 more.

How are these skills ranked?

By Skill Navigator score, which combines the GitHub stars of the skill's repository (shared across that repo's skills and discounted for large collections), how many other GitHub owners carry a copy of the skill, and automated SKILL.md quality checks, minus penalties for safety-check warnings and for each further skill from the same repository. Skills that fail the safety check are not listed.
