cwl GATK GenotypeGVCFs error in linux due to quotes in filenames

Question

[cocchi.e89]

Hi noticed that everytime I try to run .cwl scripts that include GATK GenotypeGVCFs the runner encounter an error that is related to how the previous step creates filenames in genomic DB (from GATK GenomicsDBImport called through .cwl too):

Invalid filename: '8$1$146364022' contains illegal characters

and actually investigating the genomic DB directory (GenomicsDBImport output) it actually creates filenames for each chromosome directory within quotes that then raise the error above:

This happens every single time I have a GenomicsDBImport output in my Linux Ubuntu 18.04.5

Does anybody worked this around? I know I can call it from GATK outside .cwl but for pipeline purposes I'd like to be able to pass this DB through .cwl too.

Thank you very much in advance for any help! Below my cwl script:

Hello, sorry for just now seeing this. Support for CWL and the CWL reference runner has moved from biostars to https://cwl.discourse.group/ ; can you post your question there?
