Documentation Standards

Documentation standards should protect the reader from filler, drift, and false confidence.

For bijux-proteomics-core, documentation should keep contract meaning separate from runtime execution and make quality pages read like review gates rather than reassurance.

Documentation Model

flowchart TB
    contract["stable core contract meaning"]
    examples["examples stay on durable surfaces"]
    quality["quality pages behave like review gates"]
    reader["reader knows what core owns and what it does not"]

    contract --> examples
    examples --> quality
    quality --> reader

This page should stop core docs from sliding toward nearby convenience paths. Readers should leave with a sharper idea of stable rule ownership, not a blurrier one.

Review Rules

  • docs should help readers distinguish contract meaning from runtime execution
  • examples should focus on stable core surfaces, not nearby convenience paths
  • quality pages should sound like review gates, not reassurance text

First Proof Check

  • packages/bijux-proteomics-core/tests
  • src/bijux_proteomics/program_spec.py and targets.py
  • src/bijux_proteomics/lifecycle.py and validation.py

Design Pressure

The common drift is to explain runtime-adjacent convenience so heavily that the actual durable contract starts to disappear from view.
