What problem does it solve?
It removes the manual burden of validating sequencing files and assembling deepTools analysis steps for genome-wide signal, quality control, and visualization tasks.
Core Features & Use Cases
- File Validation: Checks BAM, bigWig, and BED inputs for existence, readability, indexing, and basic format correctness before analysis.
- Workflow Generation: Creates ready-to-run templates for ChIP-seq quality control, ChIP-seq comparison, RNA-seq coverage, and ATAC-seq analysis.
- Reference-Guided Analysis: Provides detailed documentation for normalization choices, genome size selection, QC interpretation, and common deepTools commands.
- Use Case: A researcher can confirm that all inputs are ready, generate a reproducible workflow for a ChIP-seq experiment, and produce correlation plots, coverage tracks, heatmaps, and enrichment summaries from a single skill.
Quick Start
Use the deeptools skill to validate your BAM, bigWig, and BED files, then generate the workflow template that matches your experiment type.
