Lamina Evaluation

aryaniyaps/lamina-evaluation

Judge product usability and evidence quality. Use when running Persona-based walkthroughs on a built product, planning an expert heuristic review, defining evidence-backed success metrics, or checking quantitative claims without inventing measurements. Use lamina-research to plan or synthesize evidence collection and lamina-ux to design interaction behavior.

Lamina Evaluation

Reference-loading protocol

Match the request's primary evaluation method to one row below.
Open that linked reference before answering. Add another only when a second

method materially changes the answer; do not preload the directory.

Start the response with Using lamina-evaluation: <topic path(s)> so the

selected evaluation lens is auditable.

Topic index

| Evaluation signal | Read | Adds |

|---|---|---|

| Need actors to attempt workflows and edge probes on a built product | Actor Evaluation | Persona-based walkthrough method and reproducible blockers |

| Need specialists to inspect a contract or live product through explicit lenses | Expert Lens Review | parallel lens coverage tied to evidence and contract refs |

| Need success metrics, analytics interpretation, or experiment claims | Metrics Discipline | measurement boundaries and anti-fabrication rules |

Working rule

Use the smallest sufficient reference set. Actor evaluation requires a runnable

product; use expert review before build or when a lens-specific inspection is

requested. Pair either with metrics discipline only when real measurements or a

measurement plan are in scope.

How to use it

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
