Pass the profile object exactly as that tool exports it, reference table included: the z-scores in it were computed against the writer's own pieces, and without that table they have no units, so a profile with it stripped out is refused rather than guessed at. The tool uses conservative, uncalibrated floors of 150 draft words and 5 reference pieces; below either it returns the counts and habits that still hold but no distance. This is not an AI detector: a low distance means the writer's own commonest words appear at similar rates, and nothing more."
