Profiles a genome from raw reads BEFORE assembly with a k-mer spectrum (KMC or Jellyfish histogram), then models it with GenomeScope2 to estimate genome size, heterozygosity, repeat content, and ploidy, and Smudgeplot to infer ploidy from heterozygous k-mer pairs (diploid AB vs triploid AAB vs tetraploid AABB). Covers choosing k via Merqury best_k.sh, the k-mer-coverage vs sequencing-coverage confusion, reading het/repeat/contamination/organelle peaks, why noisy ONT must not be used for counting, and how the estimate becomes the NG50 denominator, the Flye -g value, the hifiasm --hom-cov/purge setting, and the 1.5-2x-too-big haplotig sanity check. Use when starting any de novo assembly, deciding whether short reads can work, estimating genome size for an unknown organism, diagnosing ploidy, or sanity-checking an assembly's size against expectation.

Nominates and assesses CRISPR off-target sites genome-wide. Enumerates candidate sites by mismatch and bulge tolerance with Cas-OFFinder/CRISPRitz, ranks them with the published CFD score (SpCas9-only, relative ranker) or MIT/CRISTA/energy models, runs variant-aware screening against gnomAD/individual genomes (CRISPRme), and frames the empirical genome-wide discovery assays (GUIDE-seq, CIRCLE-seq, CHANGE-seq, DISCOVER-seq, Digenome-seq) and high-fidelity nuclease choice (HiFi Cas9, Sniper-Cas9, eSpCas9, SpCas9-HF1). Use when assessing guide RNA specificity, choosing among candidate guides, screening a therapeutic guide against population variation, or planning empirical off-target validation. Distinguishes predicted vs detected vs validated. On-target activity scoring and deaminase (Cas-independent) base/prime-editor off-targets are separate skills.
