spikeinterface-electrophysiology SKILL.md skillA
spikeinterface-electrophysiology from jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Unified Python framework for extracellular electrophysiology. Load 20+ formats (SpikeGLX, OpenEphys, NWB, Intan, Maxwell, Blackrock), preprocess, run 10+ sorters (Kilosort4, SpykingCircus2, Tridesclous, MountainSort5) via one API, compute quality metrics (SNR, ISI, firing rate), compare sorters, export NWB/Phy. For format-agnostic multi-sorter workflows. For Neuropixels-specific PSTH/decoding use neuropixels.
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
# SpikeInterface — Unified Extracellular Electrophysiology Framework ## Overview SpikeInterface provides a common Python API to read extracellular recordings from 20+ file formats, preprocess raw voltage traces, run 10+ spike sorters, postprocess and quality-control sorted units, and export results — all without format-specific code. Its modular design lets users swap sorters, formats, and preprocessing steps without rewriting pipelines. SpikeInterface is built around lazy, chainable objects: a `Recording` holds raw data, a `Sorting` holds spike times, and a `SortingAnalyzer` ties them together for waveform and metric computation. ## When to Use - Loading recordings from multiple acquisition systems (SpikeGLX, OpenEphys, Intan, NWB, Maxwell MEA, Blackrock) with a unified API rather than format-specific parsers - Running the same preprocessing and sorting pipeline across experiments recorded on different hardware - Comparing two or more spike sorters on the same recording to assess agreement and choose the best output - Running containerized sorters (Kilosort, IronClust, MountainSort5) via Docker or Singularity without local installation …

How to install
mdr add jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills/spikeinterface-electrophysiology@sha256:13806a0fbcae41efThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260428.81ea2d2, 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.
