| Packages | R/Python libraries | @DESeq2, @Seurat, @pandas |
Search and Filtering
The mention search uses fuzzy matching—you don’t need exact names:

Multiple Mentions
Chain resources in a single request:
Align @sample_R1.fastq.gz and @sample_R2.fastq.gz using @STAR,
quantify with @featureCounts, then run differential expression
with @DESeq2 comparing treatment vs control
File Mentions
Reference files you’ve uploaded:
Analyze @experiment_data.csv
Using the @aligned_reads.bam from earlier, call variants with @GATK
Mentions are optional. Biomni can often infer the right tools from context—use @ when you want a specific resource.
