It provides both HTTP REST APIs (powering the clinical.scilifelab.se web portal) and a command-line interface to automate interactions between sequencing tools and manage cross-tool communication. The package bundles a substantial dependency stack including Flask for the web layer, SQLAlchemy for data persistence, cryptography for secure operations, and specialized bioinformatics libraries like genologics for instrument integration.\n\nThe platform is designed to bridge multiple genomic analysis tools and expose their capabilities through unified interfaces. It runs on Python 3.11 or later and is actively maintained, with recent releases. The large runtime dependency footprint reflects its role as a full-stack system rather than a lightweight library, combining web serving, database management, authentication, and domain-specific genomics integration.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are operating a clinical genomics platform or integrating with SciLifeLab's infrastructure. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and low install friction. However, verify the license terms before use, and note that it is tightly scoped to clinical sequencing workflows\u2014not a general-purpose library. The Python version requirement and large dependency footprint make it suitable for dedicated backend deployment rather than lightweight embedding."},"id":"cg","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cg","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cg.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/cg/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"cg","python_support":"capped_below_current","summary":"Clinical Genomics command center"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":90961,"position":13553,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"88.2.1"}
