family/b

Judges whether an ancestral sequence or character-state reconstruction has earned its reliability claims, emitting a per-axis pass/flag/fail verdict.

Referees a batch-aware analysis for validity, returning sourced per-axis verdicts and empirical calibration requirements.

Audits a gene-family birth-death analysis for method validity: assumptions met, the named method real and appropriate, the error rate actually controlled.

Decides whether a gene-loss call is an established loss or a technical artifact, working ordered gates in which silence is never taken as evidence.

Reasons about an analysis's method validity from its method + data-handling trace, emitting a verdict that gates certification — never CERTIFY on its own.

Catches pangenome claims that are silently wrong — artifact-inflated, mis-partitioned, over-claimed, or reference-free in name only — gate by gate.

Audits a dN/dS positive-selection claim at the layer beneath the p-value, then passes it, flags it with a remedy, or rejects it as invalid as stated.

Screens a synteny or rearrangement conclusion for the cardinal sin of an artifact read as biology, flagging anything that flips with tool stringency.

Referees a whole-genome-duplication inference against the known artifact axes; a claim that cannot clear an axis is flagged, never silently passed.

Referees a whole-genome alignment and the biology drawn from it, flagging rather than passing any claim it cannot clear from the evidence supplied.
