What this adds

An Applications in practice section in docs/COOKBOOK.adoc: one worked real-world case that shows the OND side: significance statuses become a type where an unrun test cannot publish; the CNO side: the complete-separation refusal certified as an operation that provably computes nothing -- grounded in MetaManifold, an amplicon-sequencing pipeline in production use, because the value of the discipline is clearest on a live pipeline rather than a toy.

The section answers the question a newcomer actually has: what is this for in the real world, and what goes wrong without it? It is deliberately short, states what the undisciplined alternative gets wrong, and links the concrete case.

What this leaves out

Documentation only. No code, no API, no claim changes anywhere else in the repo. The commit is signed.

Versions tested

Not applicable -- documentation.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added practical guidance on handling OND status and CNO refusals of degenerate negative-binomial GLM fits in MetaManifold.
    • Explained how machine-checked guarantees can help address silent failure paths.

… a real pipeline

Appends a worked real-world case to docs/COOKBOOK.adoc: the concrete situation in
an amplicon-sequencing pipeline in production use where the type, the OND
discipline or the algebra earns its keep -- and what the untyped or
undisciplined alternative gets wrong. Documentation only; no code changes.

📝 Walkthrough

The cookbook adds examples of OND-style status handling and refusal to fit a negative-binomial GLM when one group has no reads. It also describes machine-checked guarantees for silent failure paths.

Changes: Applications in practice

Layer / File(s) Summary
OND and GLM examples
docs/COOKBOOK.adoc
Adds an example where only computed results carry numbers and publishing requires evidence that a test ran. Describes refusal of a degenerate fit when one group has no reads, and adds a closing statement about machine-checked answers for silent failure paths.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

  • observed — Modified behavior in docs/COOKBOOK.adoc: Adds a MetaManifold example of OND-style status handling: only :computed results carry numbers, and publishing requires evidence that the test ran; untested results cannot be published as null results.
  • observed — Modified behavior in docs/COOKBOOK.adoc: Adds a MetaManifold example describing refusal to fit a negative-binomial GLM when one group has no reads, and characterizes the degenerate fit as a CNO that can be excluded through a typed guarantee.
  • observed — Modified behavior in docs/COOKBOOK.adoc: Adds a closing statement presenting machine-checked answers for silent failure paths that may not appear in logs.

treatment as proposed, not as an existing guarantee in MetaManifold. Remove
claims of a machine-checked answer unless the cookbook links to a
MetaManifold-specific proof or type-check artifact.

…app's code (CodeRabbit, PR #189)

The section read as though MetaManifold already provides a typed
machine-checked guarantee; its implementation enforces both rules with
status symbols and guarded control flow, held by tests. The passage now
says that plainly, names the type-level treatment as the modelled
endpoint checked in this repository (proofs/agda/OND.agda,
proofs/agda/CNO.agda), and links the concrete app-side artifacts at
their pins: the status logic in src/analysis/analysis.jl (7d5e9a4) and
the complete-separation refusal asserted in
test/unit/test_differential.jl. The closing sentence claims a
machine-checked account of the failure paths, not a machine-checked
answer shipped by the app.
