ga4gh-beacon skill
Query a GA4GH Beacon v2 endpoint for genomic variants, individuals, biosamples, analyses, runs, cohorts, and datasets, follow its cross-entity links, and read its metadata and filtering vocabulary
Overview
Bundled Claude Code / MCP skill for GA4GH Beacon v2, shipped alongside the `@deepseek-ai/dsh-ga4gh-beacon` Cordis plugin and standalone MCP server in the `ga4gh-plugins` monorepo. Query a GA4GH Beacon v2 endpoint for genomic variants, individuals, biosamples, analyses, runs, cohorts, and datasets, follow its cross-entity links, and read its metadata and filtering vocabulary. Use when the user asks about GA4GH Beacon queries, variant-presence lookups against a Beacon v2 service, federated genomic discovery, or GA4GH Beacon interoperability.
