Create or link this repo's Atlas research graph so hypotheses, experiments, runs, and decisions are tracked. Use when the canvas says 'no graph for this project', when the user asks to initialize/set up Atlas, or before starting research that should be recorded.
Cost modeling and ROI analysis for specialized LLM development. Use when deciding whether to train a custom model, estimating total cost, or calculating break-even vs frontier APIs. Covers training costs, inference costs, and time-to-ROI projections.
Data structure for annotated matrices in single-cell analysis. Use when working with .h5ad files or integrating with the scverse ecosystem. This is the data format skill—for analysis workflows use scanpy; for probabilistic models use scvi-tools; for population-scale queries use cellxgene-census.
Benchling R&D platform integration. Access registry (DNA, proteins), inventory, ELN entries, workflows via API, build Benchling Apps, query Data Warehouse, for lab data management automation.
Microscopy image analysis for cell biology. Cell segmentation (Cellpose, watershed), object tracking (trackpy), morphology quantification, colony counting, colocalization analysis, and cytoskeleton characterization. For pathology WSI use pathml; for flow cytometry use flow-cytometry-analysis.
Comprehensive molecular biology toolkit. Use for sequence manipulation, file parsing (FASTA/GenBank/PDB), phylogenetics, and programmatic NCBI/PubMed access (Bio.Entrez). Best for batch processing, custom bioinformatics pipelines, BLAST automation. For quick lookups use gget; for multi-service integration use bioservices.

Latch is a Python framework for building and deploying bioinformatics workflows as serverless pipelines. Built on Flyte, create workflows with @workflow/@task decorators, manage cloud data with LatchFile/LatchDir, configure resources, and integrate Nextflow/Snakemake pipelines.
The Latch platform provides four main areas of functionality:
# Install Latch SDK
python3 -m uv pip install latch
# Login to Latch
latch login
# Initialize a new workflow
latch init my-workflow
# Register workflow to platform
latch register my-workflow
Prerequisites:
from latch import workflow, small_task
from latch.types import LatchFile
@small_task
def process_file(input_file: LatchFile) -> LatchFile:
"""Process a single file"""
# Processing logic
return output_file
@workflow
def my_workflow(input_file: LatchFile) -> LatchFile:
"""
My bioinformatics workflow
Args:
input_file: Input data file
"""
return process_file(input_file=input_file)
