trackplot SKILL.md skillA

trackplot from ygidtu/trackplot is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add ygidtu/trackplot/trackplot@git:20260912.5da5c3e

Pins git:20260912.5da5c3e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Generate sashimi-style genome visualization plots (coverage, line, heatmap, IGV read-by-read, HiC, circRNA, motif) from BAM/bigWig/depth/HiC inputs. Use when the user wants to plot NGS data over a genomic region, make sashimi or intron-shrinkage plots, strand density, single-cell barcode-split density, protein domain tracks, or publish-ready PDF/PNG/SVG figures for a locus. Covers CLI usage, config TSV file formats, Docker, and the Python Plot chain API. Use when the user says trackplot…

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

# trackplot

trackplot is a pure-Python (>=3.8) sashimi-plot / locus-visualization framework. It draws
coverage, line, heatmap, individual-read (IGV), HiC, circRNA and motif tracks for a single
genomic region, and emits journal-ready PDF/PNG/SVG. Input is given as tab-separated config
files; output is one figure where each track maps to one config file.

## When to choose which track

| User wants | Use |
|-----------|-----|
| Coverage/sashimi of BAM or bigWig over a locus (junctions shown) | `--density` |
| Multi-sample coverage as lines (time course, conditions) | `--line` |
| Several samples side-by-side coverage blocks | `--heatmap` |
| Individual aligned reads, incl. long-read m6A/polyA marks | `--igv` |
| 2D contact matrix / HiC | `--hic` |
| Gene model, exon/intron, protein domains, custom beds | `-r` annotation + `--domain` / `--interval` |
| Circular RNA / back-splice highlight | `--density` + `--stroke` + `--link` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ygidtu/trackplot/trackplot@sha256:e784fefc46f496ed

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.5da5c3e, 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.
