DICOM Series Preflight

Purpose

Used for header-only preflight of one DICOM series folder before conversion or inference. Not for de-identification or clinical clearance.
Use the wrapper exactly as documented; do not replace the upstream entrypoint with a handwritten implementation.
Manifest I/O: inputs are dicom_dir; outputs are preflight_json.

Instructions

Read skill_manifest.yaml before changing arguments, side effects, or validation gates.
Run scripts/preflight_series.py through the documented command below; keep outputs under a caller-provided run directory.
If a host agent exposes run_script, use run_script("scripts/preflight_series.py", args=[...]); otherwise run the Bash/Python command shown below.
Check the emitted JSON and paired verifier guidance before treating the run as evidence.

Available Scripts

Script	Purpose	Arguments
`scripts/preflight_series.py`	Primary entrypoint declared by skill_manifest.yaml.	`PATH_TO_DICOM_DIR`

Prerequisites

Runtime requirements: Python packages listed in runtime.side_effects.pip_packages.
NiBabel 5.4 or newer is required so extreme-oblique axes remain labeled consistently across reorientation.
Run commands from the repository root unless an existing section below says otherwise.

Limitations

Header-only; does not decode pixel data or detect burnt-in PHI.
Canonical orientation gate assumes LPS-derived CT axcodes L,P,S.
Compressed transfer syntax and multi-frame instances are warned, not decoded.
Single-directory scan; does not reconcile multiple studies in one tree.
Not for clinical deployment, regulatory de-identification, autonomous diagnosis, production ingestion without a vetted converter.

Troubleshooting

Error	Cause	Fix
Missing dependency or import error	Runtime package drift from `skill_manifest.yaml`.	Install the packages declared in the manifest or use the documented setup command.
Empty or schema-invalid output	Wrong input path, unsupported modality, or upstream failure.	Re-run with a known fixture and inspect the wrapper JSON plus stderr.
Validation gate failure	Output violated a declared engineering invariant.	Keep the failed evidence pack and use the gate message to repair inputs or wrapper code.

Scans a DICOM directory (one series per folder) without decoding pixels. Emits JSON with inventory, orientation axcodes, PHI flags, findings, and a preflight.verdict of pass, warn, or fail.
