Alterlab Scanpy

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-scanpy

Run the standard single-cell RNA-seq analysis pipeline with Scanpy on AnnData — QC filtering, normalization, dimensionality reduction (PCA, UMAP, t-SNE), Leiden/Louvain clustering, marker/differential expression, PAGA trajectories, and plotting. Use when analyzing scRNA-seq data through clustering, cell-type annotation, DE, or pseudotime workflows; for building or reading the .h5ad data structure itself (layers, obs/var, concatenation, backed mode) prefer alterlab-anndata instead, and for RNA velocity from spliced/unspliced counts prefer alterlab-scvelo instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
