What this skill does
Set up SingleR as a remote tool Validation status (2026-08-16): R 4.4.3/SingleR 2.8.0, loopback discovery, and a deterministic query/reference call passed with 240 aligned labels. Public publication, cross-user isolation, representative reference/accuracy validation, broad concurrency, and recovery remain incomplete. Authenticated private Platform import and owner testing passed on 2026-08-16; public publication and independent-caller authorization/isolation remain untested. Prerequisites Run from the ToolUniverse repository root on Linux with Python 3.12.3. CPU only; size RAM for test/reference matrices. Keep provider data, weights, caches, and credentials outside Git. Bind to loopback. A non-loopback bind requires TOOLUNIVERSEAPITOKEN; never put it in arguments or results. Run the standard-library contract check before downloading large dependencies: ~~~bash python scripts/remotevalidation/setupskillpreflight.py --implementation singler ~~~ After exporting provider resources, add --check-provider-env. After the server starts, add --live to verify the exact MCP tool set without running the model. Before sharing, add --check-connect-prereqs; this reports only whether a key is set and never prints its value. Create an isolated environment ~~~bash python3 -m venv .venvs/singler . .venvs/singler/bin/activate python -m pip install --upgrade pip python -m pip install -e . python -m pip install -r src/tooluniverse/remote/singler/requirements.txt Rscript -e 'if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE)) install.packages("BiocManager"); BiocManager::install(c("SingleR","celldex","Matrix","jsonlite"))' ~~~ Package/network-dependent commands must be rerun in a clean environment before marking this skill complete. Obtain credentials, data, and model weights Set TOOLUNIVERSEREMOTEDATAROOT and optionally RSCRIPTBIN. Use only approved built-in/relative references; verify licenses. …
