Check Bioconductor Skills

check-bioconductor-skills

Confirm bioconductor skills are installed and visible, then provide a concise catalog of available skills by querying SKILLS.md.

Usage

Invoke this skill to check your setup or discover available skills:

• "Do I have the bioconductor skills?"
• "Is there a good bioconductor skill for [task]?"

Prerequisites

• The bioconductor/ai-agent-skills repository is present locally.

Process

1. Read SKILLS.md from the repository root — this is the primary discovery mechanism.
2. Read USAGE.md (if present) for the "Finding Skills by Use Case" section, which provides curated task-to-skill mappings for richer recommendations.
3. Parse skill names, descriptions, and categories from SKILLS.md.
4. List/Recommend: Present skills organized by category, or recommend the 1-2 best-fit skills for a specific task. Use the use-case mappings from USAGE.md when the user asks task-oriented questions (e.g. "Is there a skill for X?").
5. Report Status: Start with "✅ Skills detected" if found, or "❌ Skills not detected" if missing.

Examples

Example: Discovery and Recommendation

Troubleshooting

• Skills not detected: Verify skill paths in editor settings, ensure the repository is cloned, and see platform-specific instructions.
• Duplicate listings: Multiple configuration locations pointing to the same skills (normal).
