Verification rubric.

A checklist-style rubric for reviewer-ready outputs: scope, assumptions, evidence, and deterministic gates.

1) Scope is explicit

A reviewer can state what the output covers, what it excludes, and what inputs were assumed — without reading the system’s mind.

2) Decision gates are deterministic

The workflow has fixed checkpoints (gates) that decide what counts as acceptable: required fields, constraints, policies, approvals, and sign-off.

3) Assumptions are listed

Every non-obvious assumption is surfaced: definitions, thresholds, dependencies, and defaults. If an assumption is wrong, the artifact shows where it entered.

4) Evidence is traceable

Claims are tied to sources, references, or inputs. If evidence is missing, the artifact makes that absence obvious instead of guessing.

5) Output is a reusable artifact

The result is structured for versioning and review (spec, plan, checklist, diff, table) — not just a fluent paragraph.

6) Failure modes are bounded

Known risks are named with mitigations: what can go wrong, how it will be detected, and what the reviewer should verify before adoption.
