What problem does it solve? Processing the NIFD frontotemporal dementia dataset requires coordinating BIDS validation, structural MRI, resting-state fMRI, and diffusion MRI pipelines plus phenotype extraction, which is error-prone when done manually across separate tools. ## Core Features & Use Cases - BIDS Validation: Validates NIFD directory structure, diagnostic group completeness, and modality presence, producing a compliance CSV report. - Multimodal Delegation: Delegates sMRI, rs-fMRI, and dMRI processing to dedicated modality skills and organizes outputs into a clean nifd_output/ layout. - Phenotype & QC Extraction: Merges diagnosis and cognitive scores (CDR, MMSE, neuropsychological battery) into a phenotype table and generates per-subject QC summaries with exclusion lists. - Use Case: A researcher with approved LONI IDA access stages a NIFD export, validates its BIDS structure, then runs the full multimodal pipeline to compare atrophy and connectivity patterns across bvFTD, svPPA, and nfvPPA groups. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to validate my local NIFD BIDS dataset and run the full multimodal processing workflow for structural, functional, and diffusion MRI.
