I work in a cancer diagnostics lab and we check cancer patients’ sequencing data in genome viewers every day. Frustrated by the standard tools, last year I built tgv, a Vim-style, keyboard-driven genome viewer.
In 2026, while agents are scarily good at bioinformatics, bioinformatics tools haven’t kept up. tgv now brings a new kind of research workflow: expose multi-omics data to agents through a fast SQL data layer and they explain the analysis right in the viewer.
The TUI is just the start.
