accessibility-aggregation SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

accessibility-aggregation from ammawla/encode-toolkit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add ammawla/encode-toolkit/accessibility-aggregation@git:20260921.7231da8

Pins git:20260921.7231da8 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Build comprehensive chromatin accessibility maps by aggregating ATAC-seq and DNase-seq narrowPeak data across multiple ENCODE experiments, donors, and labs. Use when the user wants to answer "where is chromatin accessible in my tissue?" by combining peak calls into a union peak set. Handles cross-lab variation, ATAC vs DNase platform differences, and ENCODE blocklist filtering.

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

## When to Use

- User wants to combine ATAC-seq or DNase-seq peaks across multiple experiments for a tissue
- User asks "where is chromatin accessible in my tissue?" or "build an open chromatin map"
- User needs to merge accessibility data from different labs, donors, or platforms (ATAC vs DNase)
- User wants a comprehensive set of open chromatin regions for regulatory element discovery
- Example queries: "aggregate ATAC-seq peaks for pancreas", "combine DNase-seq across donors", "find all accessible regions in liver"

# Aggregate Chromatin Accessibility Peaks Across Studies

Build a comprehensive map of open chromatin for a tissue/cell type by merging ATAC-seq and/or DNase-seq narrowPeak files from multiple ENCODE experiments.

## Scientific Rationale

**The question**: "Where is chromatin accessible in my tissue?"

Like histone marks, chromatin accessibility is a **detection question**. An open chromatin region detected in one donor but not another is still a real accessible site — individual variation, sequencing depth, and technical factors explain absence. We want the **union of all detections**.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ammawla/encode-toolkit/accessibility-aggregation@sha256:8efa4fe2bf4ddfd0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.7231da8, 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.
