Designs cytosine (CBE, C-to-T) and adenine (ABE, A-to-G) base-editor guides by positioning the target base at the activity-peak of the editing window (protospacer positions ~5-7, PAM-distal numbering), minimizing bystander edits for product purity, reading dinucleotide context (APOBEC1 TC favored / GC disfavored), and selecting the editor variant (BE4max, ABEmax, ABE8e, YE1/SECURE, TadCBE, CGBE, SpG/SpRY-BE). Covers knockout by premature stop (CRISPR-STOP/iSTOP) and splice-site disruption, the three off-target classes (Cas-dependent, Cas-independent DNA, RNA), outcome prediction (BE-Hive/DeepBE), and the base-vs-prime-vs-HDR decision.

Detects and removes contamination in genome assemblies via two disjoint workflows - foreign-sequence screening of a single-organism (eukaryote/isolate) assembly with NCBI FCS-GX (GenBank-submission-mandatory), FCS-adaptor, and BlobToolKit blob plots; and MAG/bin quality assessment with CheckM2 plus GUNC (chimerism) plus GTDB-Tk taxonomy, judged against MIMAG.
