From the SKILL.md

## Version Compatibility Reference examples tested with: matplotlib 3.8+, numpy 1.26+, pandas 2.2+, scanpy 1.10+, squidpy 1.3+ Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ: - Python: `pip show <package>` then `help(module.function)` to check signatures If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying. # Spatial Cell-Cell Communication Analyze ligand-receptor interactions and cell-cell communication in spatial data. ## Required Imports ```python import squidpy as sq import scanpy as sc import pandas as pd import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt ``` ## Ligand-Receptor Analysis with Squidpy **Goal:** Identify significant ligand-receptor interactions between spatially proximal cell types. **Approach:** Build a spatial neighbor graph, then run permutation-based ligand-receptor analysis using Squidpy's built-in database. **"Find cell-cell communication in my spatial data"** -> Test ligand-receptor co-expression between neighboring cell types with permutation-based significance. ```python # Requires clustered data with cell type annotat

About this skill
What does the bio-spatial-transcriptomics-spatial-communication skill do?

Analyze cell-cell communication in spatial transcriptomics data using ligand-receptor analysis with Squidpy. Infer intercellular signaling, identify communication pathways, and visualize interaction networks. Use when analyzing cell-cell communication in spatial context.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills --skill bio-spatial-transcriptomics-spatial-communication --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills, a repository with 2,909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
