aqal-review

The AQAL framework evaluates weekly progress across four quadrants—I, WE, IT, ITS—and five development lines to capture interior, collective, and exterior dimensions, producing a structured summary and holistic growth plan.

Trigger the weekly AQAL assessment by running the /aqal-review command, which automatically scores your quadrants and development lines, integrates recent project activity, and generates a growth plan.

Yes, the AQAL review applies across both personal and team contexts, storing assessment results in a JSON history file to reveal development trends over consecutive weeks.

An AQAL review scores four quadrants—I, WE, IT, ITS—alongside five development lines: Cognitive, Technical, Product, Emotional, and Interpersonal, ensuring a comprehensive growth evaluation.

The review applies robust guardrails to handle missing data from recent commits or sessions, ensuring the assessment still generates clear next steps for improvement without failing.

Using the AQAL model is the best way to move beyond output metrics, as it evaluates interior and collective dimensions alongside technical progress to provide a holistic growth view.
