Description: Implements policy evaluation primitives from HM Treasury
        Magenta Book guidance (HM Treasury, 2026): theory of change and
        log-frame construction, evaluation planning and stakeholder
        mapping, power and minimum-detectable-effect calculations for
        randomised designs (including cluster and stepped-wedge designs
        following Hussey and Hughes (2007)
        <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2006.05.007> and Hemming et al. (2015)
        <doi:10.1136/bmj.h391>), Maryland Scientific Methods Scale
        ratings, structured confidence ratings, light-weight
        difference-in-differences and interrupted-time-series
        estimators (Bernal et al. (2017) <doi:10.1093/ije/dyw098>) with
        cluster-robust standard errors (Cameron and Miller (2015)
        <doi:10.3368/jhr.50.2.317>), pre-treatment balance checks
        (Stuart (2010) <doi:10.1214/09-STS313>), and cost-effectiveness
        analysis (cost per outcome, incremental cost-effectiveness
        ratio, acceptability curves, incremental net benefit,
        quality-adjusted and disability-adjusted life years). Designed
        as the evaluation companion to the appraisal package
        'greenbook'. Bundled rubric and reference tables carry vintage
        metadata for reproducibility. Aligned with the May 2026
        republication of the Magenta Book.
