cellxgene-census
From the author
Queries the CZ CELLxGENE Census programmatically for versioned public single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data. Use when you need population-scale cell metadata, gene expression slices, Census summary counts, source H5AD URIs/downloads, embeddings, spatial Census data, or reference atlas comparisons across organisms, tissues, diseases, assays, and cell types. For analyzing your own local single-cell data use scanpy, anndata, or scvi-tools.

- anndataK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsHandles annotated matrices in single-cell analysis, .h5ad and Zarr files, and integration with the scverse ecosystem. This is the data format skill—for analysis workflows use scanpy; for probabilistic models use scvi-tools; for population-scale queries use cellxgene-census.Other★ 53.4K
- scgptaipoch/open-scienceEmbed and annotate single-cell expression data with scGPT, a foundation model for single-cell biology. Use this skill when: (1) Producing cell embeddings from an AnnData for clustering/integration, (2) Zero-shot or fine-tuned cell-type annotation, (3) Gene-level representation for perturbation/GRN tasks. For probabilistic single-cell models (scVI etc.), use the scvi-tools library.Science★ 5.3K
- scanpyK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsPerforms Scanpy single-cell RNA-seq QC, normalization, HVG selection, PCA/UMAP/t-SNE, clustering, exploratory marker ranking, pseudobulk preparation, visualization, and Seurat or SingleCellExperiment RDS conversion to h5ad. Applies to established exploratory scRNA-seq workflows with explicit count and expression provenance; complementary skills cover scvi-tools models and AnnData format details.Marketing★ 53.4K
- single-cell-rna-qcanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsPerforms quality control on single-cell RNA-seq data (.h5ad or .h5 files) using scverse best practices with MAD-based filtering and comprehensive visualizations. Use when users request QC analysis, filtering low-quality cells, assessing data quality, or following scverse/scanpy best practices for single-cell analysis.OfficialOther★ 31K
- scvi-toolsanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsDeep learning for single-cell analysis using scvi-tools. This skill should be used when users need (1) data integration and batch correction with scVI/scANVI, (2) ATAC-seq analysis with PeakVI, (3) CITE-seq multi-modal analysis with totalVI, (4) multiome RNA+ATAC analysis with MultiVI, (5) spatial transcriptomics deconvolution with DestVI, (6) label transfer and reference mapping with scANVI/scArches, (7) RNA velocity with veloVI, or (8) any deep learning-based single-cell method. Triggers include mentions of scVI, scANVI, totalVI, PeakVI, MultiVI, DestVI, veloVI, sysVI, scArches, variational autoencoder, VAE, batch correction, data integration, multi-modal, CITE-seq, multiome, reference mapping, latent space.OfficialOther★ 31K
- scveloK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsPerforms RNA velocity analysis with scVelo from spliced and unspliced single-cell RNA counts. Fits deterministic or dynamical models, examines gene phase portraits, builds velocity graphs, estimates relative latent time, and ranks velocity-associated genes. Use for directional trajectory hypotheses and kinetic-model diagnostics alongside Scanpy; velocity alone does not establish cell fate or causal drivers.Other★ 53.4K
