Hi all! I wanted to share a pipeline I’ve been working on called KOCheck ✅. KOCheck ✅ is a workflow for validating genetic knockouts from sequencing data. It’s designed primarily for microbial genetics workflows using short reads and performs QC, alignment, coverage analysis, marker/deletion validation, and summary report writing to facilitate quick interpretation. If anyone has suggestions for improving the pipeline structure, especially since this is my first foray into Nextflow, I’d really appreciate feedback! (More details below in the 🧵) Thanks!

I built this partly as a portfolio project to practice workflow engineering, containerized execution, and basic CI/CD using GitHub Actions. I also tried to make it something practically useful, especially for biologists who might not be very comfortable with the command line. The project includes: • Modular process design • Dockerized tool execution • Optional Python GUI launcher • End-to-end integration testing triggered on pushes to the main branch on GitHub.
