When to Use

Use this skill when you need a sample-level hierarchical clustering dendrogram from a bulk expression matrix and a sample annotation table.

• Good fits: sample QC, batch inspection, sample similarity assessment, checking whether annotated sample groups cluster as expected.
• Trigger keywords: hierarchical clustering, dendrogram, sample QC, batch inspection, sample similarity.
• Not for: differential expression testing, gene clustering heatmaps, single-cell clustering workflows.
