V1Scenario

Concrete workplace scenario

A manager says: “Before we trust the metric plan, show me where the evidence will come from.”

It sounds like evidence is just links and files. The trap is that evidence needs owner, status, access, and open questions before it can support a decision.

V2Worked answer before the table

Worked answer

Bad example first: the plausible shortcut fails

Weak example

“Evidence: analytics export, support notes, manager feedback, customer comments.”

What goes wrong

The weak version contains no owner, no access status, no quality check, no open question.

Work-ready version: use the day rule

Source

What evidence object is used?

Owner

Who controls or confirms it?

Status

Available, missing, stale, or restricted?

Question

What still needs verification?

V3Decision fork

Quick decision check

The evidence needs an owner and status rule

Use this rule before filling the production table. It turns the day from abstract AI advice into a work-ready habit.

Q1Work request

Work request

A manager asks for a tracking review next week, but the metric evidences are scattered across analytics exports, CRM tags, and meeting notes. Your job is to create a evidence pack before anyone outlines the report.

Q2Artifact handoff

Artifact handoff

Previous artifact

D15 metric_tracking_plan_pack.md

Next artifact

D17 outline_from_materials.md

Learning checkpoint: Use the previous artifact as working input, produce today's artifact, and hand it forward with evidence, limitation, owner, and repair needs visible.

Q3Evidence Pack

Evidence Pack: production rule

Turn metric/evidence needs into a verified evidence packet before outlining.

Failure mode

build from whatever evidence is easiest to find.

Work-ready version

label evidence owner, access status, reliability, safe excerpt, and open question before outlining.

EXWorked answer

Evidence packet triage

The draft needs numbers, examples, and approval notes. Do not collect everything. Pick only evidence that can support a claim, be checked by an owner, and be used by D17 without guessing.

Q4Build evidence_pack.md

Starter row / sample row standard

Before filling all rows, model one row as a paid-course receipt: concrete source, evidence, limitation, owner/review, and next action. Do not export rows that only repeat defaults.

Core path: complete three rows. Deep path: complete three rows and mark any blocked item for the next day.

Q5Redline / quality gate

Redline / quality gate

Do not build an outline from unavailable, unsafe, or unverified evidence material.

Passes when

The evidence pack is usable when every evidence has owner, access/status, reliability, safe-use note, and an open question.

Repair if

Repair if a evidence is listed without ownership, safety status, or reliability.

V5Repair pass

Repair one weak row

Use this pass to find the row that could confuse someone, create unsafe AI use, or fail as workplace evidence before you export.

Repair example

Weak row: Evidence: support notes and analytics.

Repair move: Add owner, access status, quality check, and open question.

Better row: Analytics export owned by support ops, available weekly, needs field definition check before use.

Choose the row you would be comfortable showing to a manager. It should have a clear task, boundary, owner, and next action.

Choose the row most likely to fail, confuse someone, expose sensitive input, or need review.

Write the exact change. Sentence starter: The weak row is weak because ___. I will repair it by adding ___ before using AI.

QXExport artifact

Export artifact

This file is today’s work receipt. It should show what changed in your work habit, not just that you filled a table.

Before you export

  • Does every evidence item have an owner?
  • Is access/status clear: available, missing, stale, or restricted?
  • Does the pack name reliability checks and open questions?

What this artifact proves: This file proves you can collect evidence that is usable, owned, and decision-ready.

Weak export: a pile of links/files with no owner, access status, reliability note, or open question.

Good export: evidence sources with owner, status, reliability check, safe excerpt, and the question D17 must preserve.
