Use this skill

Your agent runs on

Adds every file the skill has, pinned so you can update it. No account needed.

pip install "decimalai>=0.15"
decimalai skills add scikit-bio
claude --plugin-dir "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)/.agents"

The same install from Python, for a notebook or a setup script.

Install

pip install "decimalai>=0.15"

Add the skill

from decimalai import skillpkg

# Writes .agents/skills and .decimal/skills.toml. Safe to run twice.
result = skillpkg.add("scikit-bio")
if result.exit_code:
    raise SystemExit(result.problems)

print("Added. Start Claude Code with the command below.")

Start Claude Code with it

claude --plugin-dir "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)/.agents"

Type these in a Claude Code session. No account or API key. It writes the skill and any files it bundles, and asks first when its safety rating isn't Passed.

Add the DecimalAI plugin, once

/plugin marketplace add decimal-labs/decimalai-claude-plugins
/plugin install decimalai@decimalai

Install this skill

/decimalai:install scikit-bio

The plugin needs python3 and curl on your machine.

No Python or account. Claude Code picks it up in its next session.

Save it into your project

curl -fsSL --create-dirs -o .claude/skills/scikit-bio/SKILL.md https://app.decimal.ai/s/scikit-bio/SKILL.md

Copy SKILL.md

Save it in your project, as

.claude/skills/scikit-bio/SKILL.md

This gets SKILL.md only. The skill's 1 other file is not included.

scikit-bio

Overview

scikit-bio is a comprehensive Python library for working with biological data. Apply this skill for bioinformatics analyses spanning sequence manipulation, alignment, phylogenetics, microbial ecology, and multivariate statistics.

When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when the user:

Works with biological sequences (DNA, RNA, protein)
Needs to read/write biological file formats (FASTA, FASTQ, GenBank, Newick, BIOM, etc.)
Performs sequence alignments or searches for motifs
Constructs or analyzes phylogenetic trees
Calculates diversity metrics (alpha/beta diversity, UniFrac distances)
Performs ordination analysis (PCoA, CCA, RDA)
Runs statistical tests on biological/ecological data (PERMANOVA, ANOSIM, Mantel)
Analyzes microbiome or community ecology data
Works with protein embeddings from language models
Needs to manipulate biological data tables

Core Capabilities

1. Sequence Manipulation

Work with biological sequences using specialized classes for DNA, RNA, and protein data.

Key operations:

Read/write sequences from FASTA, FASTQ, GenBank, EMBL formats
Sequence slicing, concatenation, and searching
Reverse complement, transcription (DNA→RNA), and translation (RNA→protein)
Find motifs and patterns using regex
Calculate distances (Hamming, k-mer based)
Handle sequence quality scores and metadata

Common patterns:

import skbio

# Read sequences from file
seq = skbio.DNA.read('input.fasta')

# Sequence operations
rc = seq.reverse_complement()
rna = seq.transcribe()
protein = rna.translate()

# Find motifs
motif_positions = seq.find_with_regex('ATG[ACGT]{3}')

# Check for properties
has_degens = seq.has_degenerates()
seq_no_gaps = seq.degap()

Important notes:

Use DNA, RNA, Protein classes for grammared sequences with validation
Use Sequence class for generic sequences without alphabet restrictions
Quality scores automatically loaded from FASTQ files into positional metadata
Metadata types: sequence-level (ID, description), positional (per-base), interval (regions/features)

2. Sequence Alignment

Perform pairwise and multiple sequence alignments using dynamic programming algorithms.

Key capabilities:

Global alignment (Needleman-Wunsch with semi-global variant)
Local alignment (Smith-Waterman)
Configurable scoring schemes (match/mismatch, gap penalties, substitution matrices)
CIGAR string conversion
Multiple sequence alignment storage and manipulation with TabularMSA

Common patterns:

from skbio.alignment import local_pairwise_align_ssw, TabularMSA

# Pairwise alignment
alignment = local_pairwise_align_ssw(seq1, seq2)

# Access aligned sequences
msa = alignment.aligned_sequences

# Read multiple alignment from file
msa = TabularMSA.read('alignment.fasta', constructor=skbio.DNA)

# Calculate consensus
consensus = msa.consensus()

Important notes:

Use local_pairwise_align_ssw for local alignments (faster, SSW-based)
Use StripedSmithWaterman for protein alignments
Affine gap penalties recommended for biological sequences
Can convert between scikit-bio, BioPython, and Biotite alignment formats

3. Phylogenetic Trees

Construct, manipulate, and analyze phylogenetic trees representing evolutionary relationships.

Key capabilities:

Tree construction from distance matrices (UPGMA, WPGMA, Neighbor Joining, GME, BME)
Tree manipulation (pruning, rerooting, traversal)
Distance calculations (patristic, cophenetic, Robinson-Foulds)
ASCII visualization
Newick format I/O

Common patterns:

from skbio import TreeNode
from skbio.tree import nj

# Read tree from file
tree = TreeNode.read('tree.nwk')

# Construct tree from distance matrix
tree = nj(distance_matrix)

# Tree operations
subtree = tree.shear(['taxon1', 'taxon2', 'taxon3'])
tips = [node for node in tree.tips()]
lca = tree.lowest_common_ancestor(['taxon1', 'taxon2'])

# Calculate distances
patristic_dist = tree.find('taxon1').distance(tree.find('taxon2'))
cophenetic_matrix = tree.cophenetic_matrix()

# Compare trees
rf_distance = tree.robinson_foulds(other_tree)

Important notes:

Use nj() for neighbor joining (classic phylogenetic method)
Use upgma() for UPGMA (assumes molecular clock)
GME and BME are highly scalable for large trees
Trees can be rooted or unrooted; some metrics require specific rooting

4. Diversity Analysis

Calculate alpha and beta diversity metrics for microbial ecology and community analysis.

Key capabilities:

Alpha diversity: richness, Shannon entropy, Simpson index, Faith's PD, Pielou's evenness
Beta diversity: Bray-Curtis, Jaccard, weighted/unweighted UniFrac, Euclidean distances
Phylogenetic diversity metrics (require tree input)
Rarefaction and subsampling
Integration with ordination and statistical tests

Common patterns:

from skbio.diversity import alpha_diversity, beta_diversity
import skbio

# Alpha diversity
alpha = alpha_diversity('shannon', counts_matrix, ids=sample_ids)
faith_pd = alpha_diversity('faith_pd', counts_matrix, ids=sample_ids,
                          tree=tree, otu_ids=feature_ids)

# Beta diversity
bc_dm = beta_diversity('braycurtis', counts_matrix, ids=sample_ids)
unifrac_dm = beta_diversity('unweighted_unifrac', counts_matrix,
                           ids=sample_ids, tree=tree, otu_ids=feature_ids)

# Get available metrics
from skbio.diversity import get_alpha_diversity_metrics
print(get_alpha_diversity_metrics())

Important notes:

Counts must be integers representing abundances, not relative frequencies
Phylogenetic metrics (Faith's PD, UniFrac) require tree and OTU ID mapping
Use partial_beta_diversity() for computing specific sample pairs only
Alpha diversity returns Series, beta diversity returns DistanceMatrix

5. Ordination Methods

Reduce high-dimensional biological data to visualizable lower-dimensional spaces.

Key capabilities:

PCoA (Principal Coordinate Analysis) from distance matrices
CA (Correspondence Analysis) for contingency tables
CCA (Canonical Correspondence Analysis) with environmental constraints
RDA (Redundancy Analysis) for linear relationships
Biplot projection for feature interpretation

Common patterns:

from skbio.stats.ordination import pcoa, cca

# PCoA from distance matrix
pcoa_results = pcoa(distance_matrix)
pc1 = pcoa_results.samples['PC1']
pc2 = pcoa_results.samples['PC2']

# CCA with environmental variables
cca_results = cca(species_matrix, environmental_matrix)

# Save/load ordination results
pcoa_results.write('ordination.txt')
results = skbio.OrdinationResults.read('ordination.txt')

Important notes:

PCoA works with any distance/dissimilarity matrix
CCA reveals environmental drivers of community composition
Ordination results include eigenvalues, proportion explained, and sample/feature coordinates
Results integrate with plotting libraries (matplotlib, seaborn, plotly)

6. Statistical Testing

Perform hypothesis tests specific to ecological and biological data.

Key capabilities:

PERMANOVA: test group differences using distance matrices
ANOSIM: alternative test for group differences
PERMDISP: test homogeneity of group dispersions
Mantel test: correlation between distance matrices
Bioenv: find environmental variables correlated with distances

Common patterns:

from skbio.stats.distance import permanova, anosim, mantel

# Test if groups differ significantly
permanova_results = permanova(distance_matrix, grouping, permutations=999)
print(f"p-value: {permanova_results['p-value']}")

# ANOSIM test
anosim_results = anosim(distance_matrix, grouping, permutations=999)

# Mantel test between two distance matrices
mantel_results = mantel(dm1, dm2, method='pearson', permutations=999)
print(f"Correlation: {mantel_results[0]}, p-value: {mantel_results[1]}")

Important notes:

Permutation tests provide non-parametric significance testing
Use 999+ permutations for robust p-values
PERMANOVA sensitive to dispersion differences; pair with PERMDISP
Mantel tests assess matrix correlation (e.g., geographic vs genetic distance)

7. File I/O and Format Conversion

Read and write 19+ biological file formats with automatic format detection.

Supported formats:

Sequences: FASTA, FASTQ, GenBank, EMBL, QSeq
Alignments: Clustal, PHYLIP, Stockholm
Trees: Newick
Tables: BIOM (HDF5 and JSON)
Distances: delimited square matrices
Analysis: BLAST+6/7, GFF3, Ordination results
Metadata: TSV/CSV with validation

Common patterns:

import skbio

# Read with automatic format detection
seq = skbio.DNA.read('file.fasta', format='fasta')
tree = skbio.TreeNode.read('tree.nwk')

# Write to file
seq.write('output.fasta', format='fasta')

# Generator for large files (memory efficient)
for seq in skbio.io.read('large.fasta', format='fasta', constructor=skbio.DNA):
    process(seq)

# Convert formats
seqs = list(skbio.io.read('input.fastq', format='fastq', constructor=skbio.DNA))
skbio.io.write(seqs, format='fasta', into='output.fasta')

Important notes:

Use generators for large files to avoid memory issues
Format can be auto-detected when into parameter specified
Some objects can be written to multiple formats
Support for stdin/stdout piping with verify=False

8. Distance Matrices

Create and manipulate distance/dissimilarity matrices with statistical methods.

Key capabilities:

Store symmetric (DistanceMatrix) or asymmetric (DissimilarityMatrix) data
ID-based indexing and slicing
Integration with diversity, ordination, and statistical tests
Read/write delimited text format

Common patterns:

from skbio import DistanceMatrix
import numpy as np

# Create from array
data = np.array([[0, 1, 2], [1, 0, 3], [2, 3, 0]])
dm = DistanceMatrix(data, ids=['A', 'B', 'C'])

# Access distances
dist_ab = dm['A', 'B']
row_a = dm['A']

# Read from file
dm = DistanceMatrix.read('distances.txt')

# Use in downstream analyses
pcoa_results = pcoa(dm)
permanova_results = permanova(dm, grouping)

Important notes:

DistanceMatrix enforces symmetry and zero diagonal
DissimilarityMatrix allows asymmetric values
IDs enable integration with metadata and biological knowledge
Compatible with pandas, numpy, and scikit-learn

9. Biological Tables

Work with feature tables (OTU/ASV tables) common in microbiome research.

Key capabilities:

BIOM format I/O (HDF5 and JSON)
Integration with pandas, polars, AnnData, numpy
Data augmentation techniques (phylomix, mixup, compositional methods)
Sample/feature filtering and normalization
Metadata integration

Common patterns:

from skbio import Table

# Read BIOM table
table = Table.read('table.biom')

# Access data
sample_ids = table.ids(axis='sample')
feature_ids = table.ids(axis='observation')
counts = table.matrix_data

# Filter
filtered = table.filter(sample_ids_to_keep, axis='sample')

# Convert to/from pandas
df = table.to_dataframe()
table = Table.from_dataframe(df)

Important notes:

BIOM tables are standard in QIIME 2 workflows
Rows typically represent samples, columns represent features (OTUs/ASVs)
Supports sparse and dense representations
Output format configurable (pandas/polars/numpy)

10. Protein Embeddings

Work with protein language model embeddings for downstream analysis.

Key capabilities:

Store embeddings from protein language models (ESM, ProtTrans, etc.)
Convert embeddings to distance matrices
Generate ordination objects for visualization
Export to numpy/pandas for ML workflows

Common patterns:

from skbio.embedding import ProteinEmbedding, ProteinVector

# Create embedding from array
embedding = ProteinEmbedding(embedding_array, sequence_ids)

# Convert to distance matrix for analysis
dm = embedding.to_distances(metric='euclidean')

# PCoA visualization of embedding space
pcoa_results = embedding.to_ordination(metric='euclidean', method='pcoa')

# Export for machine learning
array = embedding.to_array()
df = embedding.to_dataframe()

Important notes:

Embeddings bridge protein language models with traditional bioinformatics
Compatible with scikit-bio's distance/ordination/statistics ecosystem
SequenceEmbedding and ProteinEmbedding provide specialized functionality
Useful for sequence clustering, classification, and visualization

Best Practices

Installation

uv pip install scikit-bio

Performance Considerations

Use generators for large sequence files to minimize memory usage
For massive phylogenetic trees, prefer GME or BME over NJ
Beta diversity calculations can be parallelized with partial_beta_diversity()
BIOM format (HDF5) more efficient than JSON for large tables

Integration with Ecosystem

Sequences interoperate with Biopython via standard formats
Tables integrate with pandas, polars, and AnnData
Distance matrices compatible with scikit-learn
Ordination results visualizable with matplotlib/seaborn/plotly
Works seamlessly with QIIME 2 artifacts (BIOM, trees, distance matrices)

Common Workflows

Microbiome diversity analysis: Read BIOM table → Calculate alpha/beta diversity → Ordination (PCoA) → Statistical testing (PERMANOVA)
Phylogenetic analysis: Read sequences → Align → Build distance matrix → Construct tree → Calculate phylogenetic distances
Sequence processing: Read FASTQ → Quality filter → Trim/clean → Find motifs → Translate → Write FASTA
Comparative genomics: Read sequences → Pairwise alignment → Calculate distances → Build tree → Analyze clades
