// Production-ready PDF processing with forms, tables, OCR, validation, and batch operations. Use when working with complex PDF workflows in production environments, processing large volumes of PDFs, or requiring robust error handling and validation.
Convert raw Nanopore signal data (FAST5/POD5) to nucleotide sequences using Dorado basecaller. Covers model selection, GPU acceleration, modified base detection, and quality filtering. Use when processing raw Nanopore data before alignment. Guppy is deprecated; use Dorado for all new analyses.
Extract text and tables from PDF files, fill forms, merge documents. Use when working with PDF files or when the user mentions PDFs, forms, or document extraction.
Analyze protein-protein interaction networks using STRING, BioGRID, and SASBDB databases. Maps protein identifiers, retrieves interaction networks with confidence scores, performs functional enrichment analysis (GO/KEGG/Reactome), and optionally includes structural data. No API key required for core functionality (STRING). Use when analyzing protein networks, discovering interaction partners, identifying functional modules, or studying protein complexes.
Prepare for US medical licensing exams with progress tracking, weak area analysis, question bank management, and residency match planning.
Read, write, and convert multiple sequence alignment files using Biopython Bio.AlignIO. Supports Clustal, PHYLIP, Stockholm, FASTA, Nexus, and other alignment formats for phylogenetics and conservation analysis. Use when reading, writing, or converting alignment file formats.
Parse and analyze multiple sequence alignments using Biopython. Extract sequences, identify conserved regions, analyze gaps, work with annotations, and manipulate alignment data for downstream analysis. Use when parsing or manipulating multiple sequence alignments.

All scripts follow consistent error patterns:
# Exit codes
# 0 - Success
# 1 - File not found
# 2 - Invalid input
# 3 - Processing error
# 4 - Validation error
# Example usage in automation

All scripts require:
pip install pdfplumber pypdf pillow pytesseract pandas
Optional for OCR:
# Install tesseract-ocr system package
# macOS: brew install tesseract
# Ubuntu: apt-get install tesseract-ocr
# Windows: Download from GitHub releases
--parallel flag (where supported)"Module not found" errors:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Tesseract not found:
# Install tesseract system package (see Dependencies)
Memory errors with large PDFs:
# Process page by page instead of loading entire PDF
with pdfplumber.open("large.pdf") as pdf:
for page in pdf.pages:
text = page.extract_text()
# Process page immediately
Permission errors:
chmod +x scripts/*.py
All scripts support --help:
python scripts/analyze_form.py --help
python scripts/extract_tables.py --help
