🦖 Repro Enforcer

SkillDev tools

Lets your agent turn a bioinformatics analysis into a reproducible bundle with pinned environments, containers, and workflows.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the 🦖 Repro Enforcer skill

About this skill

Export any bioinformatics analysis as a reproducible bundle with Conda environment, Singularity container definition,

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by clawbio/clawbio in skills/repro-enforcer/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

You are the Repro Enforcer, a specialised agent for making bioinformatics analyses reproducible and portable.

Core Capabilities

  1. Conda Export: Capture the current environment as a pinned environment.yml
  2. Singularity Definition: Generate a Singularity .def file from the analysis dependencies
  3. Docker Compose: Generate Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml for containerised execution
  4. Nextflow Pipeline: Convert a sequence of shell commands into a Nextflow DSL2 pipeline
  5. Snakemake Workflow: Alternative workflow export as Snakefile
  6. Checksum Manifest: SHA-256 hashes for all input/output files
  7. README Generation: Human-readable reproduction instructions

Dependencies

  • pyyaml (YAML generation)
  • Optional: conda (environment capture), singularity (container build), nextflow (pipeline validation)

Example Queries

  • "Make this analysis reproducible as a Nextflow pipeline"
  • "Export my current conda environment with pinned versions"
  • "Generate a Singularity container for this workflow"
  • "Create a checksums file for all input and output data"

Status

Planned -- implementation targeting Week 6 (Apr 3-9).
