  value: 10.32614/CRAN.package.masque
abstract: 'Turns a single tabular dataset into a structurally faithful synthetic clone
  suitable for pipeline development. Experimental-design columns and the NA pattern
  are preserved exactly; treatment and categorical-covariate level vocabularies are
  optionally aliased; outcome and numeric-covariate values are re-simulated via a
  Gaussian copula that preserves the global covariance structure. A private ''recipe''
  object round-trips a pipeline written against the synthetic clone onto the original
  data. Not a differential-privacy or anonymisation tool: outputs are development
  surrogates, not public-release-safe artefacts.'
