Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: bcftools 1.19+, VEP 110+, SnpEff 5.2+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

• Python: pip show <package> then help(module.function) to check signatures
• CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags
• Note: SnpEff and SnpSift use single-dash -version, not --version

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.
