Completion Evaluator

A technology-agnostic skill for evaluating deliverables against acceptance criteria and achievement indicators.

Core Purpose

Provide objective, evidence-based evaluation of deliverables to determine:

• Whether acceptance criteria are met
• Pass/fail verdicts with justification
• Specific feedback for improvements
• Next action recommendations

Evaluation Framework

Achievement Indicator Categories

completeness_indicators:
  description: "What must be present in the deliverable"
  examples:
    - "All required functions implemented"
    - "Error handling present"
    - "Edge cases covered"
    - "Documentation included"

quality_indicators:
  description: "How the deliverable should be built"
  examples:
    - "Code follows project standards"
    - "Test coverage meets threshold"
    - "No security vulnerabilities"
    - "Performance within limits"

functionality_indicators:
  description: "What the deliverable must do"
  examples:
    - "Business logic correct"
    - "User acceptance criteria met"
    - "Integration points working"
    - "No regressions introduced"

Evaluation Process

step_1_load_context:
  actions:
    - "Read acceptance criteria/indicators"
    - "Identify all criteria to evaluate"
    - "Prepare evaluation checklist"

step_2_evaluate_each_indicator:
  for_each_criterion:
    - "Gather evidence from deliverable"
    - "Compare to threshold/target"
    - "Determine PASS/FAIL"
    - "Document evidence"

step_3_calculate_verdict:
  rules:
    all_pass: "Overall PASS"
    any_fail: "Overall FAIL"
    note: "No CONDITIONAL - binary verdict only"

step_4_determine_next_action:
  if_pass:
    - "Deliverable accepted"
    - "Return to workflow-orchestrator"
  if_fail:
    - "Identify failed indicators"
    - "Determine responsible agent"
    - "Provide specific feedback"

Indicator Evaluation

Evidence Requirements

evidence_types:
  code_presence:
    method: "File/function existence check"
    example: "Function X exists in file Y"

  test_results:
    method: "Test execution output"
    example: "All 15 tests pass"

  static_analysis:
    method: "Linter/analyzer output"
    example: "No errors in cs-check"

  coverage_metrics:
    method: "Coverage tool output"
    example: "82% line coverage"

  performance_metrics:
    method: "Benchmark results"
    example: "Response time: 150ms"

  manual_verification:
    method: "Code review observations"
    example: "Error handling present in all external calls"

Threshold Comparison

threshold_types:
  boolean:
    example: "Feature X implemented: true"
    pass_if: "value == expected"

  numeric:
    example: "Test coverage >= 80%"
    pass_if: "value >= threshold"

  count:
    example: "Critical bugs == 0"
    pass_if: "count <= max_allowed"

  presence:
    example: "Documentation exists"
    pass_if: "file/section exists"

Verdict Generation

Pass Criteria

pass_requirements:
  - "ALL completeness indicators PASS"
  - "ALL quality indicators PASS"
  - "ALL functionality indicators PASS"
  - "No critical issues found"

pass_verdict:
  overall: "PASS"
  action: "Proceed to commit/completion"
  delegate_to: "workflow-orchestrator"

Fail Criteria

fail_triggers:
  - "ANY indicator fails"
  - "Critical issue found"
  - "Blocking problem identified"

fail_verdict:
  overall: "FAIL"
  action: "Return for rework"
  delegate_to: "<agent responsible for failed area>"
  feedback: "<specific issues and remediation>"

Iteration Management

Iteration Tracking

iteration_limits:
  max_iterations: 3
  focus_by_iteration:
    iteration_1: "Critical issues"
    iteration_2: "Major improvements"
    iteration_3: "Final polish"

escalation:
  trigger: "After 3 failed iterations"
  action: "Consult user for decision"
  options:
    - "Accept current state"
    - "Modify requirements"
    - "Abandon task"

Feedback Quality

feedback_requirements:
  specific:
    bad: "Code quality issues"
    good: "Missing error handling in getUserById() at line 45"

  actionable:
    bad: "Improve test coverage"
    good: "Add tests for edge case: null user input in login()"

  prioritized:
    bad: "Fix all issues"
    good: "Critical: SQL injection at line 23; Major: Missing validation"

  agent_assigned:
    bad: "Fix the code"
    good: "code-developer: Add input validation to processPayment()"

Output Format

evaluation_result:
  overall_verdict: PASS|FAIL

Best Practices

1. Evidence-Based: Every verdict must cite specific evidence
2. Objective: Apply same standards consistently
3. Actionable Feedback: Every failure includes remediation path
4. Clear Assignments: Failed areas specify responsible agent
5. Iteration Awareness: Track progress across iterations
6. Escalation Ready: Know when to involve user
