Update to NGS Analysis Workbench

Snapshot Sep 30, 2026 · 23:20 UTC · version 0.2.16

Collection source: not recorded for this historical snapshot. These snapshots do not have a confirmed matching collection source. Differences in file lists alone do not establish changes to the package.

WHAT CHANGED · RULE-BASED ANALYSIS

Supporting file metadata differs

Newly listed paths: agents/openai.yaml. This compares saved file lists, not package contents; a different collection source can change the list.

Observed in package metadata. These changes alone do not establish a new customer-facing feature.

Prefer parsers, manifests, and workflow-owned metadata over\nfilenames.

State supportable tasks in scientific terms, not engine names. Ask\nonly for missing information that changes sample identity, assay\ninterpretation, method, or endpoint.\n\n## Output: StartingPointAssessment\n\nAdd a `starting_point_assessment` artifact with:\n\n1. known objective\n2. material inventory and relationships\n3. evidence and provenance\n4. supportable tasks and their conditions\n5. missing, conflicting, or unusable inputs\n6. open questions and at most one pending user decision\n7. justified handoff to design, run, or results\n"
