@Jeremy Muhlich @Alex is there progress on the plan to move OMEVALIDATION to a external tool rather than in pure groovy. (https://github.com/nf-core/mcmicro/pull/120#discussion_r2695214376) As the exec is running in the headjob this currently blocks our testing on Seqera Platform with AWS Batch

Yes, Alex has the framework in place. We just need to sit down and design the validation checks as the ones implemented in the exec scripts aren't quite right.

Super... I was able to get it going on Seqera platform by using

toUriString()

and

file()

over

new file()

. So my use/testing us on the way.

We still want to eliminate it because it's just hard to manage in general

Absolutely!
