Validate alignment quality with insert size distribution, proper pairing rates, GC bias, strand balance, and other post-alignment metrics. Use when verifying alignment data quality before variant calling or quantification.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Alignment Validation

Post-alignment quality control to verify alignment quality and identify issues.

## Insert Size Distribution

Insert size should match library preparation protocol.

### samtools stats

```bash
samtools stats input.bam > stats.txt
grep "^IS" stats.txt | cut -f2,3 > insert_sizes.txt
```

### Picard CollectInsertSizeMetrics

```bash
java -jar picard.jar CollectInsertSizeMetrics \
    I=input.bam \
    O=insert_metrics.txt \
    H=insert_histogram.pdf
```

### Expected Insert Sizes

| Library Type | Expected Size |
|--------------|---------------|
| Standard WGS | 300-500 bp |
| PCR-free | 350-550 bp |
| RNA-seq | 150-300 bp |
| ChIP-seq | 150-300 bp |
| ATAC-seq | Multimodal |

### Python Insert Size Analysis

import pysam
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fridrichmethod/awesome-skills/bio-alignment-validation@sha256:fad089f8732a6794

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260520.7a7a671, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
