okay so bestie, welcome to vcfcheck, a lil tool from the vcflib family, and it's literally here to do a vibe check on your VCFs ✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

vcfcheck options

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she's lowkey mysterious like that 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does she actually do? she validates the integrity and the identity of your VCF, by verifying that every VCF record's REF actually matches a reference file you hand her. like, does your REF column match reality? she will find out. no cap. 🔥

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

here's the menu, bestie, every single one:

• -f, --fasta-reference — the FASTA reference file to use to obtain primer sequences.
• -x, --exclude-failures — if a record fails, don't print it. otherwise, do.
• -k, --keep-failures — print if the record fails, otherwise not.
• -i, --ignore-case — ignore case differences between the FASTA reference and the vcf.
• -h, --help — print this message.
• -v, --version — print version.

also worth noting: Type: metrics 🎀
