vcfclick is archived on Zenodo, which mints a DOI for every tagged GitHub release plus a stable "concept DOI" that always resolves to the latest release. The concept DOI is the one you cite from a paper; version-specific DOIs are for reproducibility when you need to pin to an exact release.
If you use vcfclick in published research, cite the concept DOI:
10.5281/zenodo.20636069.
