Evidence that remains traceable.
Deterministic calculations produce drafts. Practitioners review, adjust, approve, and publish the final recommendation.
Calculation engine
Energy, reconciled macro plans, hydration, fueling, weight, risk, and calculation checks are implemented as testable TypeScript modules.
Approval readiness
Calculation checks are separate from the clinical approval gate, which requires practitioner-authored care documentation, risk disposition when indicated, and attestation.
Version records
Approved assessments retain input, output, engine, and methodology snapshots so later updates do not rewrite history.
Calculation modules.
Energy
RMR equation selection, total daily expenditure, and domain context.
Macros
Protein, carbohydrate, and fat ranges with an energy-reconciled working plan.
Hydration
Daily and session guidance labeled as measured, recorded with incomplete context, or estimated.
Fueling
Pre-, during-, and post-session carbohydrate, protein, and fluid guidance.
Energy availability
A screening estimate for practitioner interpretation, never a RED-S diagnosis.
Checks and readiness
Input quality, deterministic calculation checks, and clinical approval readiness stay separate.
