I'm incredibly grateful for the amazing community that's contributed, provided feedback, and helped shape it into what it is today. This journey wouldn't have happened without you all, a testament to the power of #openscience
Here's to the next decade of making #bioinformatics QC beautiful! π§¬
π Today marks 10 years since the very first @multiqc.info commit!
What started as a simple tool for QC reports has grown into something used by thousands of labs worldwide. It's become a foundational tool in the fabric of #bioinformatics and it's a joy to see it play a small part in global research

Modules #QUAST and #Trimmomatic got minor updates, and #VEP and #BclConvert got bugfixes. There were also a number of tweaks and fixes for AI summaries β¨

Ever wanted to set report Toolbox settings from the CLI whilst generating reports? (highlight, hide, and rename samples) Now you can! We finally closed this ancient issue from 2016 π§π»ππ github.com/MultiQC/Mult...
See the docs to get started: docs.seqera.io/multiqc/gett...
Another quality of life improvement is that we now have a #JSONschema via @pydantic.dev for #MultiQC configuration files π
This has been added to schemastore.org so that config files in #VSCode & other IDEs automatically get integrated error checking as you type, see docs.seqera.io/multiqc/gett...
Did you see, #MultiQC v1.28 went out a few days ago!
There are a handful of release highlights for this version, but perhaps the most exciting is that .gif, .webp and .tiff files are now supported for #CustomContent - you can finally put your favourite gifs into reports! Just name them *_mqc.gif

One of the cooler things I saw at the Nextflow summit a few months ago. Can't wait to try this.
23.01.2025 15:29 β π 22 π 11 π¬ 0 π 0We're really excited to hear what folks make of the new functionality. Give it a try now with v1.27 and check out the documentation at docs.seqera.io/multiqc/ai
github.com/MultiQC/Mult...
We made this functionality as flexible as possible. It works out of the box with @seqera.io AI and also #OpenAI and #AnthropicAI.
Reports also have "Copy prompt" options to paste into whatever LLM you like.
Read more in the blog post: hubs.ly/Q033KvM10
The premise is fairly simple: #MultiQC can now build prompts including sample data and send these to LLM services to get summaries.
This can be done at report-generation time, with the summary is part of the HTML. But also *interactively* on-demand when reading the report.
MultiQC v1.27 was released yesterday. It includes one major new feature:
=== β¨ AI summaries β¨ ===
LLMs are a natural next step for helping scientists understand large datasets. @multiqc.info now has built-in integration with @seqera.io AI as well as #OpenAI and #AnthropicAI π€
I'm excited to see my contributions made it into this version! It was a lot easier to add new modules than I expected. If anyone is wishing a tool was supported, you should just try adding it.

A highlight of this release is improved config parsing, with better support for environment variables π«
Every MultiQC config option can now be set via an env var, and YAML configs can interpolate env vars into their strings:
