System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
It removes the manual trial-and-error involved in launching nf-core/createtaxdb runs, especially when you need the correct database inputs, required flags, and release-specific behavior to stay consistent.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Builds metagenomic classifier databases from a samplesheet describing DNA and protein reference FASTAs.
- Supports multiple classifier back ends such as Kraken2, Centrifuge, DIAMOND, Kaiju, MALT, sourmash, and others from one pipeline.
- Fits research and lab automation workflows that need reproducible, version-pinned database generation and standardized MultiQC reporting.
Quick Start
Ask the skill to prepare and run createtaxdb from your samplesheet, output directory, and database name while preserving the pinned release and validated parameters.
