What it does
Builds and operates reproducible genomics workloads on DNAnexus with the dx CLI, dxpy, apps/applets, native workflows, dxCompiler, and Nextflow. Supports DNAnexus data transfers, dxapp.json development, execution monitoring, workflow import, and project automation.
DNAnexus Integration
Purpose
Use this skill to build, run, and operate DNAnexus workloads without guessing at platform semantics. It covers:
dxCLI anddxpyautomation- Files, records, folders, projects, and metadata
- Apps and applets defined by
dxapp.json - Jobs, workflow analyses, retries, monitoring, and cost controls
- Native workflows, WDL/CWL through dxCompiler, and Nextflow imports
The documented baseline was reviewed on 2026-09-30 against
dxpy==0.415.0, dxCompiler 2.18.0, and the 2026 DNAnexus documentation.
Consult references/sources.md and current release notes when behavior may
have changed. SDK signatures, CLI help, and offline validators were executed
locally; examples that transfer data, build, or launch workloads are illustrative
and require testing in the target account. No authenticated platform run was
performed during this review.
Operating Contract
DNAnexus operations can expose regulated data, delete immutable objects, change permissions, or incur compute and egress charges. Follow these rules:
