Alternatives to celltype-specificity-profiler
celltype-specificity-profiler is an agent skill by Jacky Siu: Given a gene and a single-cell atlas, compute how cell-type-specific its expression is — the tau specificity index, Sarle's expression bimodality coefficient…. If it doesn't fit your setup, these 12 agent skills cover similar ground. They are ordered by how closely they match celltype-specificity-profiler and by our rank, which weighs adoption, freshness and documentation; money never changes the order. scrna-embedding leads the list (repository has 1.2K stars; open source (MIT)). Each entry shows data reasons to switch, and you can open a side-by-side comparison with celltype-specificity-profiler.
