UX Dx Evaluation Diagnostician

UX/DX Evaluation Diagnostician

Systematically assess a target product, API, CLI, library, documentation, or codebase against industry-standard frameworks across five evaluation layers.

Procedure

1. Analyze Input: Identify the [TARGET], [LAYER_FOCUS], [AUDIENCE], and [CONTEXT].
2. Select Layers: Determine which of the five layers apply to the target.
3. Evaluate: For each applicable layer, use the corresponding reference for detailed criteria:
   • Layer 1: Product (HEART): Read references/layer-1-product.md.
   • Layer 2: Engineering (SPACE): Read references/layer-2-engineering.md.
   • Layer 3: Interface (CLI/API): Read references/layer-3-interface.md.
   • Layer 4: Ecosystem (CHAOSS): Read references/layer-4-ecosystem.md.
   • Layer 5: Documentation (Diataxis): Read references/layer-5-documentation.md.
4. Synthesize: Use references/report-template.md to generate the final diagnostic report.

Rules

• Observable Evidence: Evaluate only what is observable; flag what cannot be assessed as a "Measurement Gap."
• Status Rollup:
  • CRITICAL finding → Layer is CRITICAL.
  • HIGH finding → Layer is DEGRADED.
• No Fixing: Stop after producing the report. Do not offer to fix findings.
