DGS vs LLMs

How to evaluate LLM workflows vs DGS.

Focus on artifacts, reviewability, and governance — not vibes.

Does it produce an artifact?

Measure whether the system outputs a structured spec/plan/checklist your team can store and reuse.

Can a reviewer approve it?

If review is subjective or ambiguous, adoption won’t scale.

What fails and how?

Track failure modes: scope drift, hidden assumptions, missing constraints, and untestable claims.

Can you govern it?

Look for explicit gates: acceptance criteria, sign-off, and versioning for outputs.

Recommendation

Evaluate with real artifacts

Run a small workflow: request a spec, a plan, and acceptance criteria. Then time how long it takes a human to review and approve.
