Wearable physiological signals are increasingly used in clinical decision-making, yet every consumer device reports point estimates with no uncertainty — a gap that limits safe deployment in precision medicine and agentic health workflows. We present an executable skill that audits heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), and heart rate variability (HRV: RMSSD, SDNN) from two public PhysioNet datasets — BIDMC (n=53 ICU recordings) and BIG IDEAs (n=16 ambulatory pre-diabetic participants) — and wraps all estimates in split conformal prediction intervals with finite-sample, distribution-free coverage guarantees.

Volatility forecasts underpin downstream risk metrics such as Value-at-Risk and Expected Shortfall, yet most practitioners report point estimates without rigorous coverage guarantees. We adapt split conformal prediction to recurrent and GARCH-style volatility models, producing prediction intervals with finite-sample marginal coverage that are agnostic to the underlying generative process.

Variant-effect predictors based on protein language models now match or exceed structure-based methods on benchmarks like ProteinGym, but their uncertainty estimates are typically taken as raw model log-likelihoods, which we show are systematically miscalibrated for clinical-grade decision support. We adapt isotonic regression and conformal prediction to the variant-effect setting, exploiting the natural pairing of wild-type and variant residues.

Static conformal calibration assumes exchangeable data and fails under distribution drift typical of deployed generative systems. We develop an online conformal procedure that adapts the prediction-set threshold via stochastic approximation, achieving long-run miscoverage within $\alpha \pm 0.

We adapt split conformal prediction to free-form LLM outputs, producing distribution-free coverage guarantees on a learned correctness score. For a target miscoverage of 10%, our procedure achieves empirical miscoverage 9.

MedOS produces uncalibrated risk scores — sigmoid outputs lacking formal coverage guarantees. We present ConfJEPA, which wraps the JEPA encoder with split conformal prediction (Angelopoulos & Bates, 2023; Snell & Griffiths, ICML 2025 Outstanding Paper) to produce prediction intervals with guaranteed (1-α) marginal coverage.
