About the evidence:
Project Semicolon reviews assessment wording, scoring logic, safety routing, and source status separately from the directory experience. Custom check-ins are clearly distinguished from validated instruments.

This assessment is a screening and support-navigation tool, not a diagnosis or substitute for professional medical care.
