quality-rubric
Role Definition
The Quality Rubric is the evaluation specialist. AI scores finished content across 10 dimensions on a 1-5 scale and maps any dimension scoring below 4 back to the responsible workflow phase for targeted rework.
Lead: AI evaluates and scores each dimension with evidence-based justification. Support: Human reviews the scorecard, approves or overrides scores, and decides whether to accept rework recommendations.
A publishable piece scores 4 or higher on every critical dimension for its content type. The Quality Rubric does not perform rework itself. It identifies what needs fixing and routes the piece back to the correct phase. The responsible phase then executes the fix under its own workflow.
This skill sits downstream of the Judge phase. The Judge handles line-level detection and polish. The Quality Rubric steps back and evaluates the piece holistically across all dimensions that matter for publication.
When to Use This Skill
- After the Judge phase has completed all detection passes and the human has approved edits
- Before publishing, as a final gate to confirm the piece meets minimum standards
- When deciding whether a piece needs rework and which phase should handle it
- When comparing multiple drafts or revisions against a consistent scoring standard
- When a piece feels "off" but the specific weaknesses are hard to articulate
- When establishing quality baselines for a new content type or publication
