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.
