polars-bio accelerates genomic interval math and bioinformatics I/O by combining Polars, Arrow, and DataFusion to handle BED/VCF/BAM/GFF/FASTA streams, SQL queries, and cloud storage with overlap, coverage, and nearest APIs plus streaming fallbacks.

This guide provides techniques to significantly boost performance when integrating with the Hex API. It covers essential optimization strategies such as implementing LRU caching for project lists, running multiple independent jobs in parallel, and adopting adaptive polling intervals to manage API latency and resource usage effectively. Use this when facing slow data retrieval or requiring high-throughput data processing.

This tool manages the continuous and periodic execution of specialized background workers, such as security auditing, performance optimization, code mapping, and documentation generation. By utilizing in-session looping (`/loop`) and MCP dispatching, users can schedule critical maintenance tasks (e.g., optimize, audit, consolidate) at fixed intervals, ensuring the system remains monitored and up-to-date.
