Yes, the Common Mechanism is designed with integration capabilities in mind. It includes a “fast mode” that is specifically designed to enable our sensitive biorisk detection to be incorporated into other pipelines that may use different approaches for flagging sequences of concern through taxonomic measures. Since the Common Mechanism is available as a Python package and can be run on Linux systems, it can be readily incorporated into standard bioinformatics pipelines. The software’s modular design allows for flexible implementation, where users can utilize specific components of the Common Mechanism that best complement their existing workflows.
