Cheat Sheet (Rubric)
This rubric is editable (JSON). The app detects behaviors from your prompts and uses them to compute 4D scores.
4D dimensions
- D1: Description (weight 0.22)
- D2: Delegation (weight 0.22)
- D3: Discernment (weight 0.34)
- D4: Diligence (weight 0.22)
Discernment is weighted higher to counter “polished artifact bias”.
Artifact Bias Index
Formula: (D1 + D2) - D3
Thresholds: medium ≥ 7, high ≥ 15
If Description + Delegation outruns Discernment, you may be trusting “finished-looking” outputs too quickly.
