Even if these planets are tainted by carbon monoxide, they could still probably be made perfectly habitable. In the worst case they could be inhabited by tweaks or neogens. Note, however, that this star is only 12 light years from Earth, so it would probably be an early target for colonisation. Tweaks and neogens that could withstand an poisonous atmosphere would probably not be available in the early days of colonisation, so the colonists would presumably live in sealed habitats or in space for at least a thousand years.
