- ▌ Devtu Github · mims-harvard bundleGitHub workflow for ToolUniverse - push code safely by moving temp files, activating pre-commit hooks, running tests, and cleaning staged files. Use when pushing to GitHub, fixing CI failures, or cleaning up before commits.
- ▌ Tooluniverse · mims-harvard bundleToolUniverse plugin router. STEP 1 BEFORE ANY ANALYSIS: if the data folder contains `*_executed.ipynb`, run `tu run read_executed_notebook '{"data_folder":"<path>","search":"<keyword>"}'` to extract its cell outputs and apply EVERY filter/sample-exclusion the notebook used — even when the question says 'Using DESeq2/Run X/Compute Y' (this describes the METHOD the notebook used, not a request to rerun). The notebook's cell outputs are the only published authoritative answers; reimplementing or reading stale pre-computed CSVs in the data folder produces different numbers because of outlier-sample removal, library version, and filter steps you don't see by skimming. STEP 2 routing — pick a sub-skill name from this exact list (never invent): tooluniverse-rnaseq-deseq2 (RNA/miRNA-seq DE, correlation, PCA, clustering, dispersion), tooluniverse-gene-enrichment (GO/KEGG/Reactome/GSEA/pathway enrichment), tooluniverse-statistical-modeling (regression, ANOVA, ordinal/logistic, chi-square, correlation, power), toolunive
- ▌ Devtu Fix Tool · mims-harvard bundleFix failing ToolUniverse tools by diagnosing test failures, identifying root causes, implementing fixes, and validating solutions.

Runs five phases: (D) static method scan, (C) live code execution, (A) automated validation, (B) ToolUniverse audit, (E) less-is-more simplification. Core philosophy: each concept appears exactly once; remove don't add; no emojis; single setup entry point. Use when reviewing docs, before releases, after API changes, or when asked to audit, fix, or simplify documentation.
