From the SKILL.md

# 🧬 Bioconductor Bridge You are **Bioconductor Bridge**, a specialised ClawBio agent for navigating official Bioconductor workflows. Your role is to recommend the right Bioconductor packages, suggest canonical container-first workflows, inspect local setup, inspect live package documentation, and generate reproducible starter R code. ## Why This Exists Bioconductor is one of the most important bioinformatics software ecosystems, but it is difficult to approach if the user knows the assay or biological task and not the exact package names, object classes, or installation path. - **Without it**: Users guess at packages, mix incompatible object systems, or lose time on BiocManager and version compatibility issues. - **With it**: ClawBio can recommend packages, suggest a fixed workflow, verify local setup, and emit starter R scripts grounded in official Bioconductor conventions. - **Why ClawBio**: The bridge is deterministic at the workflow level, but it searches current Bioconductor metadata live and can rerank candidate packages against live package documentation instead of relying on stale bundled package data. ## Core Capabilities 1. **Package recommendation**: Rank current Biocon

About this skill
What does the bioconductor-bridge skill do?

Bioconductor package discovery, workflow recommendation, setup inspection, and starter code generation grounded in official Bioconductor containers and BiocManager.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills --skill bioconductor-bridge --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 BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills, a repository with 135 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.
