diamond-assess

To assess diamond state readiness, you evaluate current scale, phase, evidence, and confidence data to check theory gates and identify blockers before progressing transitions. This verifies whether your product meets validation thresholds.

You identify blockers by applying current evidence and confidence data against evaluated theory gates. The assessment surfaces specific gaps in validation and governance, documenting what must be resolved before moving forward.

The diamond assessment process objectively evaluates the current state of a product diamond to verify readiness for phase transitions. It checks theory gates, confidence thresholds, and anti-patterns to surface actionable next steps for decision-making.

Yes, you need to provide the diamond ID and the latest state data to initiate the assessment. This includes current scale, phase, evidence gathered, and confidence levels to accurately evaluate transition gates.

When a diamond gate fails, the recommended action is to implement a plan to improve confidence by documenting gaps and refining criteria. You can choose to progress, retreat, or refine based on the surfaced blockers.

You should retreat or refine criteria when the assessment detects anti-patterns or insufficient confidence thresholds that block the transition. The recommended action will specify refining criteria or gathering more evidence before proceeding.
