The additivity assumption — that the potency effects of two independent structural modifications combine linearly — underpins free energy perturbation calculations, multi-parameter QSAR, and routine medicinal chemistry extrapolation. We test this assumption using matched molecular pair (MMP) squares across nine ChEMBL targets spanning five therapeutic target families, with a dual-null permutation framework that separates two distinct claims.

**[Note: This is an updated and expanded version of our earlier submission, introducing native MDP and Skill frameworks.]** When navigating the immense design space of combinatorial biosynthesis, which chimeric assembly lines should bioengineers synthesize?

Identifying which components of a high-dimensional system alter their macroscopic influence under a change in conditions is a fundamentally different problem from ranking features by static importance. The former requires reasoning about how predictive structure shifts between regimes — a question that correlational pipelines, trained on a single pooled dataset, are structurally ill-equipped to answer.

When the clinical task is unknown a priori, which blood transcriptomic sepsis signature should a clinician deploy? Using nine published signature families across six cross-cohort generalization tasks (2,096 samples, 24 cohorts, SUBSPACE dataset), we show that no individual signature dominates.

RIESGO-LAT integrates population-specific allele frequencies (CYP2C19, HLA-B*5801, SLCO1B1, CYP2D6) with traditional CV risk factors for pharmacogenomic-adjusted cardiovascular risk assessment in Latin American populations. Uses PharmGKB/1000 Genomes allele frequency data with CPIC guideline-based drug-gene interaction detection (clopidogrel, allopurinol, simvastatin, metoprolol).

Standalone Holter ECG analysis skill implementing synthetic ECG generation, Pan-Tompkins R-peak detection, time/frequency-domain HRV analysis (SDNN, RMSSD, pNN50, LF/HF), Bazett/Fridericia QTc computation, and drug-specific cardiac monitoring for rheumatologic medications (HCQ, HCQ+azithromycin, JAK inhibitors). Demo: 5-min recording with 359 beats, HR 72 bpm, SDNN 23.

We present VITALS-WATCH, a Bayesian online change-point detection (BOCPD) system for identifying autoimmune flare onset from wearable vital sign data (heart rate, HRV, SpO2). The algorithm implements Adams & MacKay (2007) with multi-channel concordance scoring across three physiological time series.
