Single-Cell Genomics and Expression Matrix Analysis

RULE ZERO — Check for pre-computed results FIRST

Before following any instruction below, scan the data folder for:

  • *_executed.ipynb → read with tu run read_executed_notebook '{"data_folder":"<path>","search":"<keyword>"}' and cite its cell outputs as the authoritative answer
  • Pre-computed result files (CSV/TSV with names like *results*, *deseq*, *enrich*, *stats*, *_simplified.csv) → read directly and report the requested value
  • Canonical analysis scripts (analysis.R, run_*.py, find_*.R, *.Rmd) → execute as-is and read the output

Only follow this skill's re-analysis recipe below if none of the above exist. Re-running from raw data produces different numbers than the published answer and is much slower (often 5-10× turn count).


Comprehensive single-cell RNA-seq analysis and expression matrix processing using scanpy, anndata, scipy, and ToolUniverse.


LOOK UP, DON'T GUESS

When uncertain about any scientific fact, SEARCH databases first (PubMed, UniProt, ChEMBL, ClinVar, etc.) rather than reasoning from memory. A database-verified answer is always more reliable than a guess.
