genomic-coordinates
Convert genomic intervals between coordinate conventions, normalise and compare variant representations, and detect assembly or contig-naming mismatches before they corrupt an analysis. Use whenever coordinates cross a format, tool, or assembly boundary - converting between BED, GFF/GTF, VCF, SAM/BAM, WIG, PSL, genePred, Picard interval_list, or region strings; reconciling 0-based half-open with 1-based inclusive; left-aligning or trimming indels; checking whether two variant records describe the same change; mapping genomic to transcript, CDS, or protein positions; auditing a BED/GTF/VCF for convention violations; or diagnosing GRCh37 vs hg19 vs GRCh38 vs T2T, chr-prefix, and liftover problems. Triggers include "off by one", "0-based", "1-based", "half-open", "coordinate system", "left-align", "normalize variant", "bcftools norm", "chr prefix", "wrong genome build", "liftover", "REF mismatch", and "HGVS".

What does the genomic-coordinates skill do?
Convert genomic intervals between coordinate conventions, normalise and compare variant representations, and detect assembly or contig-naming mismatches before they corrupt an analysis. Use whenever coordinates cross a format, tool, or assembly boundary - converting between BED, GFF/GTF, VCF, SAM/BAM, WIG, PSL, genePred, Picard interval_list, or region strings; reconciling 0-based half-open with 1-based inclusive; left-aligning or trimming indels; checking whether two variant records describe the same change; mapping genomic to transcript, CDS, or protein positions; auditing a BED/GTF/VCF for convention violations; or diagnosing GRCh37 vs hg19 vs GRCh38 vs T2T, chr-prefix, and liftover problems. Triggers include "off by one", "0-based", "1-based", "half-open", "coordinate system", "left-align", "normalize variant", "bcftools norm", "chr prefix", "wrong genome build", "liftover", "REF mismatch", and "HGVS". It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the genomic-coordinates skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install scientific-skills-genomic-coordinates` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/scientific-skills-genomic-coordinates/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.
Which AI tools does genomic-coordinates work with?
genomic-coordinates runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.
Is the genomic-coordinates skill free?
Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use genomic-coordinates after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/scientific-skills-genomic-coordinates` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the genomic-coordinates skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
