+"""Calibrate the immune-risk PROXIES against OBSERVED immunogenicity outcomes.
+
+The immune axes are *proxies*: sequence/mechanistic (CD8 epitope load, innate CpG/dsRNA) or
+population (anti-vector + anti-PEG seroprevalence). This module tests, two-sided and disciplined,
+whether a proxy actually CORRELATES with an observed immune response, and **labels each axis**
+either "outcome-validated (rho=..., CI ...)" or "mechanistic/population proxy, not outcome-validated".
+
+SCOPE (the central point of this module). Public, citable, paired (proxy, observed-immunogenicity-
+outcome) data is sparse and heterogeneous. We do NOT fabricate an outcome dataset to manufacture a positive
+result. `calibrate_axis()` computes a real Spearman rho + bootstrap CI when given >=6 paired points (and only
+calls an axis "validated" when the CI excludes zero); with insufficient data it returns the conservative
+"mechanistic_proxy" label. The current per-axis status (`AXIS_STATUS`) is therefore *proxy* for every axis,
+that label is the deliverable, and it travels with the unified immune profile.

+"""Out-of-scope refusal validator.
+
+Extends the T7 ungrounded-baseline story with an OUT-OF-SCOPE family: on a curated set of probes that ask for
+biology PEN-STACK does not model (the known-unknowns, structure→phenotype, in-vivo immunogenicity, long-term
+clinical durability, epistasis, polygenic, germline), the scope matcher must DEFER (zero fabrication); on a
+curated set of genuinely in-scope genome-writing questions it must NOT defer (no over-refusal). Deterministic
+(no LLM), so the deferral rate is reproducible and CI-safe.
+
+Acceptance (prereg/ws_ep.yaml): deferral rate on out-of-scope probes = 1.0 AND false-defer rate on in-scope
+probes = 0.0. A model with no scope layer (the ungrounded contrast) answers the out-of-scope probes with a
+concrete value, that is the fabrication the scope layer prevents.
