Validate a UniProt accession

Validates a UniProt accession's format (locally) and confirms it exists in the bundled human Swiss-Prot reviewed set. confidence 1.0 = valid format and present; 0.5 = valid format but absent (may be a non-human or unreviewed accession outside the set); 0.0 = not a UniProt accession format (exists is null there — the set was never consulted; false means a real membership miss). Scope: the bundled human Swiss-Prot reviewed set. A not-found / exists=False result means 'not in that set' — a non-human or unreviewed (TrEMBL) accession will not be found. Charges 1 cost_unit.

Query parameters

include_receiptboolean

Set true to attach an execution receipt at meta.receipt — caller-verifiable sha256 hashes over the RFC 8785 (JCS) canonicalization of this call's as-received JSON body and its result (free, like include_trace). Reproduce with any JCS library: input_hash = sha256(jcs({"tool": <request path>, "args": <your body minus include_trace/include_receipt>})); result_hash = sha256(jcs(result)). For deterministic tools, same input on the same build reproduces result_hash.
