The outlined goal of the effort was to discuss the processes needed to increase the scientific confidence in potential biosignature detections and how best to convey the rigorous scientific process and this continuum of confidence to a broader audience.3 The product of this workshop was a document outlining the workshop attendees' proposed generalized framework for biosignature assessment and a proposed protocol for utilizing the framework in reporting potential discoveries, titled "Community Report from the Biosignatures Standards of Evidence Workshop" (henceforth Community Workshop Report) .4 CAPS began its review of the original document that was posted for public comment on October 18, 2021.
