gatk-variant-calling SKILL.md skillA
gatk-variant-calling from jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills/gatk-variant-calling@git:20260929.7a7d60fPins git:20260929.7a7d60f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

GATK Best Practices for germline SNP/indel calling from WGS/WES BAMs. Per-sample HaplotypeCaller GVCFs, GenomicsDBImport, GenotypeGVCFs joint calling, VQSR or hard filters. Requires BWA-MEM2-aligned, markdup, BQSR BAMs. Use DeepVariant for a faster DL alternative; GATK is the NIH/ENCODE standard.
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.
What the file says
# GATK — Germline Variant Calling Pipeline ## Overview GATK (Genome Analysis Toolkit) implements the GATK Best Practices workflow for calling SNPs and indels from Illumina WGS and WES data. The pipeline runs HaplotypeCaller per sample (producing GVCF files), consolidates GVCFs with GenomicsDBImport, performs joint genotyping with GenotypeGVCFs, and filters variants with VQSR (Variant Quality Score Recalibration) or hard filters. GATK requires BWA-MEM2-aligned, duplicate-marked, and base quality score recalibrated (BQSR) BAM files as input. It integrates with Picard tools, samtools, and bcftools for pre- and post-processing. The GATK4 workflow is the NIH/ENCODE standard for germline variant calling in research and clinical genomics. ## When to Use - Calling germline SNPs and indels from WGS or WES samples for population genetics or clinical variant analysis - Running joint genotyping across multiple samples for cohort-scale studies (families, case-control) - Applying base quality score recalibration (BQSR) to improve variant calling accuracy before HaplotypeCaller - Generating GVCF files for scalable cohort expansion: add new samples without reprocessing existing ones …

How to install
mdr add jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills/gatk-variant-calling@sha256:f34d6b908169a4ccThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.7a7d60f, 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.
