# TileDB-VCF

## Overview

TileDB-VCF is a high-performance C++ library with Python and CLI interfaces for efficient storage and retrieval of genomic variant-call data. Built on TileDB's sparse array technology, it enables scalable ingestion of VCF/BCF files, incremental sample addition without expensive merging operations, and efficient parallel queries of variant data stored locally or in the cloud.

## When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when:
- Learning TileDB-VCF concepts and workflows
- Prototyping genomics analyses and pipelines
- Working with small-to-medium datasets (< 1000 samples)
- Need incremental addition of new samples to existing datasets
- Require efficient querying of specific genomic regions across many samples
