Internal classification
BiomeLogic Evidence-State Index
Every mechanistic concept on this site carries an evidence state: established biology, actively evolving research, contested findings, or explicit BiomeLogic inference. States are derived deterministically from the claim, contradiction, and revision registries maintained in this repository.
What this is not. This index is an internal editorial classification. It is not scientific consensus, not a GRADE or similar formal certainty rating, and not the product of external peer review. No panel voted, and no numeric credibility or prestige score is published — a number would imply precision this material does not have. The page URL remains
/consensus only so existing links keep working.- Stable
- Component mechanisms are well described in published biology and are not in dispute.
- Evolving
- Actively researched. The direction of the evidence is still moving.
- Controversial
- Published work disagrees. Presented as contested rather than settled.
- Speculative
- A BiomeLogic inference. Not established evidence, stated so it can be tested.

An evidence state describes this site's reading of the literature, not scientific consensus and not a promise about any individual case. Machine-readable: /api/public/v1/consensus/{slug}
