Computes and interprets sequencing read depth and coverage over a genome, windows, or target regions with mosdepth (windowed depth, cumulative distribution, --quantize callable BEDs), bedtools genomecov/coverage (bedGraph tracks, per-target stats), samtools depth/coverage (per-base depth, per-contig depth+breadth). Covers the breadth-vs-mean distinction, the cumulative-coverage curve, evenness (CV/Fano/fold-80/Gini), what each tool silently counts (duplicates, secondary/supplementary, MAPQ, read span vs fragment, mate-overlap), the samtools-depth 8000-cap version trap, and the bedtools coverage -a/-b orientation flip. Use when assessing sequencing adequacy, building coverage tracks, computing breadth at a depth threshold, defining callable regions, or QCing target-capture uniformity.

Quick start
Copy the install prompt. Use the green button above this README.
Send it to your agent. Paste it into your coding agent’s chat and send.
Review the setup. Your agent checks the skill’s instructions, requirements, and installation scope.
