Vendored from upstream, pinned at SHA 7765fae. One file lives next to this note:

  • datatypes_conf.xml.sample — the structured source. Agents and casting should consume this when reasoning about the canonical extension set, datatype subclassing, MIME types, auto-decompression (auto_compressed_types), per-extension converters, and the global <sniffer> order. Sync is manual.

When to consult: picking valid format= values for tool wrappers (see galaxy-xsd), choosing output extensions in Molds, mapping Nextflow file types onto Galaxy datatypes, or reasoning about sniff-order ambiguity between related text/tabular formats.
