| description | MetaBinner — stand-alone ensemble contig binning using multi-feature k-means components and two-stage single-copy-gene ensemble integration. Use when: (1) Running MetaBinner as an ensemble-style single tool, (2) Comparing to MetaWRAP/DAS Tool/COMEBin, (3) Diversifying bin sets before further refinement. Upstream: https://github.com/ziyewang/MetaBinner. For recommended multi-assembly refinement still prefer basalt ★.

Analytical thinking
MetaBinner is an internal ensemble: multiple k-means component binning
results (multi-feature) integrated with SCG-aware two-stage selection — a
stand-alone alternative to piping MetaBAT/MaxBin into MetaWRAP/DAS Tool.
Still feed outputs through CheckM2; for related multi-assembly catalogues prefer
basalt ★. Complements comebin from the same group.
