abstract: Provides transparent, reproducible, and auditable tools for validating,
  preparing, encoding, summarising, comparing, modelling, and diagnosing ordered categorical
  sequence data. Supports explicit preprocessing policies, contiguous motifs and bounded
  subsequences, consensus and group comparisons, edit and transition distances, clustering
  and stability diagnostics, transition networks, higher-order models, categorical,
  mixture, multichannel, and covariate hidden Markov models, longitudinal panel workflows,
  time-varying models, design-aware inference, analysis contracts and provenance audits,
  and guarded adapters to specialist sequence-analysis packages.
