  NO API CLIENT SDK EXISTS. Watchmaker Genomics ships no client library for any of its storefront
  APIs in any registry, and no SDKs pointer is wired into apis.yml because there is nothing to
  point at. What the company does publish is first-party bioinformatics software: three
  Watchmaker-authored repositories in its GitHub organization, one of which is distributed as
  release binaries and as a public container image. Those are recorded below. The other twelve
  repositories in the organization are forks of upstream projects (nf-core pipelines, picard,
  bioconda-recipes, rastair, fade) and are deliberately excluded — a fork is not a package this
  company publishes.

    amd64-only OCI image, read from the ECR Public gallery API (describeImageTags). `latest` and
    `1.1.1` were pushed the same day and carry the same content, so the floating tag is currently
    honest — but the README instructs `:latest`, which is unpinned, and a consumer following the
    README cannot tell which build they get. Version above is read from the pinned sibling tag.
