Score a software category using the B4 Index. Provide a known category name to get pre-computed scores, or provide raw dimension scores (1-5 each) for a custom evaluation. Returns the banded verdict (primary, confidence, near-call flag, full distribution, tipping point), axes, urgency level, and a concise breakdown. The default result is intentionally lean — set includeEvidence: true to also get the full research trail and source URLs behind each score. Verdicts are banded (B4 methodology v4.0), not point calls: each of the three quadrant dimensions carries a ±1 uncertainty band, the resulting cells are enumerated exactly, and the verdict is the quadrant holding the most probability mass. Every verdict ships with its full distribution, a confidence word — clear (≥70% of the mass), lean (50–70%), split (<50%) — and a near-call flag when the runner-up is within 15 points. An axis counts as high only when it clears the 3.5 line strictly, which on this 1–5 grid means only at 4 or above, so a category sitting exactly on the line gets the safer call: ties break in the order BUY → BRIDGE → BEWARE → BUILD, cheapest mistake first. Optional org lens: set org to "small", "medium" (the default) or "large" to read the same scores as a team of that engineering maturity — it shifts the center of the AI-feasibility band by −1 / 0 / +1 and nothing else. The lens is a filter the caller looks through, never a stored profile: no user attribute is saved, inferred, or asked for, and the scores themselves never change. Omit it and you get the default-lens numbers, which are the ones published on logged-out surfaces.
