Query ReMap 2022 TF ChIP-seq peak database via REST API and BED downloads.

   
Type Claude Skill
Supplier jaechang-hits (community OSS, CC BY 4.0)
Availability GA — part of the BixBench-evaluated SciAgent-Skills collection
Pricing Free / OSS (CC-BY-4.0)
Capabilities Read/Write — Claude runs the skill’s Python locally (Bash), not as an MCP tool

How to install

SciAgent-Skills is not an npm package — skills are plain markdown read directly by the agent (no npx/npm).

  • Claude Code — clone and load as a plugin:
    git clone https://github.com/jaechang-hits/SciAgent-Skills
    

    Then inside Claude Code run /plugin install sciagent-skills (verify it appears under /plugin → Installed). Clone into your project directory so Claude Code picks the skills up via CLAUDE.md.

  • Manual / other agents — point the agent at the skill file directly:
    cp -r SciAgent-Skills/skills/genomics-bioinformatics/databases/remap-database ~/.claude/skills/
    

    The skill declares its own Python dependencies in its SKILL.md; install them when prompted on first use.

What it does

Query ReMap 2022 TF ChIP-seq peak database via REST API and BED downloads. Retrieve TF peaks overlapping a region (chr:start-end), peaks near a gene, TFs by species, peaks filtered by biotype (promoter, enhancer), and BED files for a TF-cell type pair. Use for TF co-occupancy, regulatory annotation, and TF binding atlases. Use jaspar-database for PWM motifs; encode-database for ENCODE tracks.

Primary use cases: TF co-occupancy, regulatory annotation, and TF binding atlases.

Notes

Distributed as a SKILL.md (plus code examples) in the SciAgent-Skills collection — Claude executes it locally via Bash/Python rather than as an MCP server. Upstream license: CC-BY-4.0. The skill directory upstream is skills/genomics-bioinformatics/databases/remap-database.
