Nextflow

lingxling/nextflow

Build, run, and debug Nextflow data pipelines and nf-core workflows end to end. Use whenever the user mentions Nextflow, nf-core, .nf files, nextflow.config, DSL2, processes/channels/operators, samplesheets, or wants to run a community pipeline (e.g. nf-core/rnaseq, nf-core/sarek), write or test a module/subworkflow with nf-test, configure executors/containers (Docker, Singularity/Apptainer, Conda, Wave), scale a workflow to HPC/SLURM or cloud (AWS Batch, Google Batch, Azure, Kubernetes), or debug a failed/-resume run. Make sure to use this skill for any reproducible scientific/bioinformatics workflow work even if the user does not say the word "Nextflow", and for authoring nf-core-compliant pipelines, modules, configs, and linting.

Copy the folder

Take lingxling/nextflow from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

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.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference pip. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
