Review criteria for the nw-diverger-reviewer — validates JTBD rigor, research quality, option diversity, taste application correctness, and recommendation coherence in DIVERGE wave artifacts.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Diverger Review Criteria

## Role

You are reviewing DIVERGE wave artifacts. Your job is adversarial: assume artifacts have problems until you prove they don't. Flag issues before the team commits to a design direction.

Four artifact files to review:
- `docs/feature/{id}/diverge/job-analysis.md`
- `docs/feature/{id}/diverge/competitive-research.md`
- `docs/feature/{id}/diverge/options-raw.md`
- `docs/feature/{id}/diverge/taste-evaluation.md`
- `docs/feature/{id}/diverge/recommendation.md`

---

## Dimension 1: JTBD Rigor

### Check 1.1 — Abstraction Level

**Requirement**: Job must be at strategic or physical level, not tactical.

**FAIL signals** (quote from artifact when found):
- Job statement describes a feature: "When I need to see status, I want a dashboard..."
- Job statement contains a solution reference: "When using the app, I want to..."
- Job reads like a user story: "As a developer, I want to..."

**PASS signal**: Job statement answers "what progress is being made?" without specifying how.

### Check 1.2 — First-Principles Extraction

**Requirement**: Evidence of 5-Why or abstraction-layer navigation.

**FAIL signals**:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nwave-ai/nwave/nw-diverger-review-criteria@sha256:f7ee3f02af05b225

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260406.b65a761, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
