SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires pandas, ipdb, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill orchestrates end-to-end ADNI data workflows, enabling researchers to move from raw NIfTI files to BIDS-ready datasets, run preprocessing, and extract ROI analyses with minimal manual setup.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end ADNI workflow: Stages raw data into BIDS, runs fMRIPrep, and executes downstream DK68 ROI extraction with QC.
  • Optional VQA generation: Generates VQA datasets for longitudinal analysis and task-based assessments from ADNI histories.
  • Plan-driven execution: Delegates all heavy lifting to claw-shell tool skills, while the Skill defines WHAT to do and coordinates data organization, validation, and outputs.

Quick Start

Set up an end-to-end ADNI workflow from raw NIfTI to BIDS, run fMRIPrep, and extract DK68 ROI data.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate ADNI MRI data from raw NIfTI to BIDS format?

ADNI data orchestration stages raw NIfTI files into BIDS-ready datasets by defining a high-level workflow contract that enforces dataset organization, logging, and artifact generation. It coordinates data validation before delegating execution to tool skills.

Can I run fMRIPrep preprocessing and DK68 ROI extraction in one workflow?

Yes, you can run fMRIPrep preprocessing and DK68 ROI extraction in one workflow. The orchestration spans full fMRIPrep-based preprocessing with DK68 ROI extraction and quality control, moving from raw NIfTI staging to downstream analysis outputs.

What is the best way to generate VQA datasets from longitudinal ADNI task histories?

The best way to generate VQA datasets from ADNI histories is using the optional VQA generation feature. It creates VQA datasets for longitudinal analysis and task-based assessments directly from task outputs and longitudinal ADNI histories.

Does the ADNI workflow require claw-shell tool skills to execute preprocessing?

Yes, ADNI workflow execution requires claw-shell tool skills. The Skill itself defines what to do and coordinates data organization, while delegating all heavy lifting execution, including fMRIPrep preprocessing, to claw-shell tool skills.

Do I need pandas installed to run the ADNI data orchestration workflow?

Yes, you need pandas installed to run the ADNI data orchestration workflow. Pandas is a required dependency for executing the scripts that coordinate the staging, preprocessing, and ROI extraction processes.

What are the limitations of using a plan-driven contract for ADNI data processing?

The plan-driven contract limits direct execution control, as the Skill defines the workflow plan and delegates heavy lifting to claw-shell tool skills. Users cannot manually bypass the enforced dataset organization, logging, and artifact generation steps during processing.
