Skill instructions

Shotgun Metagenomics Use this skill for shotgun metagenomic FASTQs. Essential Inputs Confirm: - paired-end or single-end reads - host organism and host-depletion requirement - target outputs: taxonomic profile, functional profile, assembly, binning, or QC only - preferred database family, if any - database paths or permission to download large databases - sample metadata, batches, and negative controls Public Defaults Prefer nf-core/taxprofiler for reproducible taxonomic profiling. Use direct Kraken2/Bracken, MetaPhlAn, or HUMAnN when the user wants a focused path or already has databases installed. For direct backend execution, prefer the plugin runner over handwritten shell when possible because it validates database bundle contents and records resources/resourceplan.json, resourcemanifest.tsv, resourceenv.sh, and resourcereadiness.md. --run-bracken and --run-humann make those database bundles blocking, not merely optional.
