Research direction

Reproduce the BioPhi command-line failure and inspect the temporary FASTA file referenced in the HMMscanError, especially line 3. Trace the command-line path that creates or passes this sequence file to HMMscan, then establish the expected behavior for the illegal character and verify it with a regression case.
