1. General Rules

# Description Result Comments
1.1 Every claim, magnitude, label, recommendation, and statement in the QRS is literally supported by content in the source ER. 🟢 Spot-checked every populated span against the ER; all trace to ER text (e.g., protocol cells to ER lines 347-357, markers to the ER table at lines 429-440).
1.2 Where the ER uses cautious phrasing (“not formally studied”, “None documented in human trials to date”, “theoretical concern”, “data are limited”), the QRS uses the same phrasing. 🟢 ER hedges are carried: “No established target; track change from own baseline” (markers 3, 10) mirrors the ER table.
1.3 The QRS never strengthens an ER claim (e.g., “not formally studied” → “not required”) or softens one (e.g., “do not use during pregnancy” → “use with caution during pregnancy”). 🟢  
1.4 The QRS does not relabel an ER fact under a different decision category. A “Benefit-Modifying Factor” from ER section is not surfaced as a “Caution”; a “Risk-Modifying Factor” is not surfaced as a “Side Effect”; etc. 🟢  
1.5 PubMed IDs, study citations, expert names, clinical trial identifiers (NCT*), and brand names appear in the QRS only if they appear in the source ER for the same fact. 🟢 The QRS carries no PMIDs, citations, author names, NCT identifiers, or brand names.
1.6 The QRS does not introduce new attributions. 🟢  

2. Focus, Tone & Audience

# Description Result Comments
2.1 The QRS follows the tone of the ER, which is determined by the ER’s own language, phrasing, and framing. 🟢  
2.2 The tone of the QRS is simultaneously expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven, but also empowering and encouraging 🟢  
2.3 The QRS reads as a trusted, knowledgeable guide rather than a prescriptive doctor 🟢  
2.4 The QRS avoids language that implies medical or clinical advice 🟢  
2.5 The QRS “presents information” instead of “providing guidance”, “recommending”, or “advising” 🟢  
2.6 The QRS never addresses “the reader” directly — it presents evidence, not guidance 🟢  
2.7 The QRS is written in plain language, avoiding unnecessary medical jargon 🟢  
2.8 Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner 🟢  
2.9 It DOES NOT address the reader directly 🟢  
2.10 The target audience is health- and longevity-oriented adults who are risk-aware, proactive, and actively seeking to optimize health or apply the intervention under review. 🟢  
2.11 The target audience is willing to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes as well as follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort. 🟢  
2.12 The document is NOT written for the general population, who are unwilling to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes or follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort. 🟢  
2.13 Framing, takeaways, and risk/benefit weighting throughout the document reflect this audience, including where an intervention’s signal for the average person differs from its signal for this audience. 🟢  
2.14 The document’s own voice frames usage in longevity terms, not “anti-aging” (e.g., “anti-aging clinics”, “anti-aging community”, “anti-aging medicine”). Proper names that contain “anti-aging” (e.g., “American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine”) are quoted verbatim. 🟢 “anti-aging” does not appear anywhere in the QRS.
2.15 The document’s own voice uses formal clinical and scientific terminology, not colloquial or consumer-grade language (e.g., “oral medication” not “pill(s)”; “injection” not “shot”; “adverse event” not “bad reaction”). Direct quotes from sources are exempt. 🟢  

3. Template Integrity

# Description Result Comments
3.1 The following labels and headings on the QRS are fixed and not modified: Card and section headings: “Protocol”, “Time to effect”, “Benefits”, “Risk & Side Effects”, “Monitoring”, “Qualitative Assessment”; Gate headings: “Contraindications”, “Key Interactions”; Tier labels: “High”, “Medium”, “Low”, “Speculative”; Table column headers in Monitoring: “Marker”, “Target”, “Why” 🟢 All fixed headings match: Protocol, Time to effect, Benefits, Risk & Side Effects, Monitoring, Qualitative Assessment, Contraindications, Key Interactions, tier labels, and Marker/Target/Why.
3.2 All “” from the [qrs_template] are present in the the QRS. 🟢 70 data-qrs-var spans present with every group complete (page/header, at_a_glance, action_1-3, time_1-3, benefits, gates, risks, marker_1-10, cadence, qualitative_1-6).
3.3 Spans that are not addressed in a checklist item are left unchanged 🟢 Template scaffolding left untouched: , , and the footer disclaimer are unchanged.

4. Formatting

# Description Result Comments
4.1 When the source ER section is empty, the QRS uses the ER’s own empty-state phrasing verbatim. Typical phrasings are “None documented in human trials to date” and “Not formally studied” N/A No source ER section relevant to the QRS is empty; every ER section drawn on has content.
4.2 Where the ER presents a bulleted item as “Label: content”, the QRS uses the ER’s bold label verbatim as the cell or row label. 🟢  
4.3 Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented. 🟢  
4.4 The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels. 🟢 No emoji characters anywhere in the file; tiers are conveyed via labels and CSS.
4.5 The QRS is designed to render on one A4 page. Any section that has more content in the ER than fits the per-section budget is condensed by the LLM, not extended onto a second page. 🟢 Content is condensed per item (tier lines are bare headings, gate items are stripped of trailing clauses); the 10 monitoring rows are mandated by item 14.2.

5. Metadata

# Description Result Comments
5.1 The metadata is placed inside a single HTML comment that is the first element after “<!doctype html>” and before any other comment, head, or body content. 🟢  
5.2 Inside that HTML comment the YAML block is delimited by a line “—” opening and a line “—” closing. Text before the opening “—” is permitted but is not parsed as YAML. 🟢  
5.3 The metadata is not visible in any rendered view of the QRS and is not surfaced by any other element on the sheet. 🟢  
5.4 All frontmatter values are trimmed: no leading or trailing whitespace, no surrounding quotes unless the value contains a colon, bracket, or leading special character that requires YAML quoting. 🟢 Only duration: "00:02" is quoted, which is required because the value contains a colon.
5.5 The filename of the source ER is stated as “er_filename: [er_filename]” 🟢  
5.6 Version of the QRS.md file used to create the document is stated as “qrs_prompt_version: [Version of QRS.md]” 🟢  
5.7 Creation date and time of the document is stated as “qrs_creation_date: [YYYY-MMDD-HHMM]” (e.g., 2026-0501-1430) 🟢  
5.8 The nickname of the AI used to create the document is stated as “qrs_creator_ai_nickname: [qrs_creator_ai_nickname]” 🟢  
5.9 The nickname of the AI is just a single word model name without version, etc. (e.g., Opus, Sonnet, Grok, Gemini, ChatGPT) 🟢  
5.10 The full name of the AI used to create the document is stated as “qrs_creator_ai_fullname: [qrs_creator_ai_fullname]” 🟢  
5.11 The full name of the AI consists of the [qrs_creator_ai_nickname] and the model version number and no additional qualifier (e.g., Opus 4.6, Sonnet 3.2, Grok 4.5, Gemini 3.1, ChatGPT 5.4) 🟢  
5.12 The filename of the document is stated as “qrs_filename: [filename of this document]” 🟢  
5.13 All frontmatter values are trimmed: no leading or trailing whitespace, no surrounding quotes unless the value contains a colon, bracket, or leading special character that requires YAML quoting. 🟢 Same check as 5.4; all values trimmed and unquoted except the colon-bearing duration.

6. Page Title & Header

# Description Result Comments
6.1 [page_title] is set to the [canonical_topic] of the ER frontmatter followed by “ - Quick Reference Sheet” (e.g., “Intervention - Quick Reference Sheet”). The [canonical_topic] is HTML-entity-encoded as needed (e.g., &amp; for &) 🟢 Line 22: “Bitter Orange for Health & Longevity - Quick Reference Sheet” matches canonical_topic plus the fixed suffix.
6.2 [header_topic] is set to the [canonical_topic] of the ER frontmatter, with HTML entities encoded as needed (e.g., &amp; for &) 🟢  
6.3 [header_subline_date] is set to [qrs_creation_date reformatted as MM/DD/YYYY] 🟢 Line 421 shows 08/15/2026, the MM/DD/YYYY form of qrs_creation_date 2026-0815-2224.
6.4 [header_subline_model] is set to [qrs_creator_ai_fullname] 🟢  
6.5 No additional header content appears: no badge, version stamp, AKA / alternate names line, source-AI attribution, audit date, or QRS variant marker. 🟢  

7. At-A-Glance Section

# Description Result Comments
7.1 [at_a_glance] is dense, execution-oriented summary of the ER Conclusion section 🟢  
7.2 [at_a_glance] is no longer than 60 words 🟢 58 words.
7.3 Every fact in [at_a_glance] is supported by a distinct passage in the ER. 🟢  
7.4 It DOES NOT use acronyms or technical classifications that require specialist knowledge, uses plain-language terms instead 🟢 Plain-language substitutions used throughout, e.g. “a gut enzyme” instead of CYP3A4.
7.5 It DOES NOT cite specific trials (names, years, sample sizes, p-values) 🟢  
7.6 It DOES NOT cite effect sizes, relative risks, or statistical results 🟢  

8. Contraindications

# Description Result Comments
8.1 The section is derived from the ER Key Interactions & Contraindications section 🟢  
8.2 [stop_items] represent the Contraindications from the ER 🟢 All 8 ER avoid-list entries (ER lines 318-325) are present.
8.3 Individual [stop_items] are formatted as <li></li> 🟢  
8.4 Items are as concise as possible. No trailing explanations, no elaborations, no mechanistic rationale, no attributions, no citations, no study details. No content after an em-dash, en-dash, or hyphen-dash (e.g., “— dose reduction required”, “— reduced efficacy”) — these trailing clauses are stripped. Just the key fact. 🟢 Trailing clauses stripped, e.g. the NCAA item drops “, for whom synephrine is banned outright”.
8.5 Parenthetical qualifiers from the ER bullet — time windows, severity classes, threshold values, clinical staging — ARE preserved as part of the item, kept as concise as possible (shortened or trimmed where needed to fit the one-page budget, but never dropped entirely). 🟢 Thresholds and windows kept: ≥140/90 mmHg, <90 days, >470/>480 ms, below 0.4 mIU/L, within 14 days.
8.6 When the ER uses ranking notation inside parens (e.g., “>” for severity ordering) that depends on an explanatory phrase to interpret, normalize the items to a plain comma-separated list rather than carrying through the bare symbol. N/A The ER’s contraindication bullets use no ranking notation inside parentheses; “>” appears only as a numeric QT threshold.
8.7 The section is left empty ONLY IF the ER’s Key Interactions & Contraindications section identifies no population, condition, or scenario for which the intervention should be avoided, deferred, or used only under specialist supervision. 🟢  
8.8 If the section is left empty, an HTML comment inside the [stop_items] span records the ER basis for the absence, naming or quoting the ER text relied on. E.g. N/A The section is not empty; [stop_items] carries 8 items.

9. Key Interactions

# Description Result Comments
9.1 The section is derived from the ER Key Interactions & Contraindications section 🟢  
9.2 [caution_items] represent the Key Interactions from the ER, excluding any that are already listed as Contraindications 🟢 All 7 non-contraindication ER interaction bullets are present; the MAOI bullet is correctly excluded as a contraindication.
9.3 Individual [caution_items] are formatted as <li></li> 🟢  
9.4 Items are as concise as possible. No trailing explanations, no elaborations, no mechanistic rationale, no attributions, no citations, no study details. No content after an em-dash, en-dash, or hyphen-dash (e.g., “— dose reduction required”, “— reduced efficacy”) — these trailing clauses are stripped. Just the key fact. 🟢  
9.5 Parenthetical qualifiers from the ER bullet — example drug lists, time windows, severity classes, threshold values, clinical staging — ARE preserved as part of the item, kept as concise as possible (shortened or trimmed where needed to fit the one-page budget, but never dropped entirely). 🟢 Example drug lists preserved for CYP3A4 substrates, antihypertensives, decongestants, and thyroid hormone; the 3-hour window is kept for the other-interventions item.
9.6 When the ER uses ranking notation inside parens (e.g., “>” for severity ordering) that depends on an explanatory phrase to interpret, normalize the items to a plain comma-separated list rather than carrying through the bare symbol. N/A The ER’s interaction bullets use no ranking notation inside parentheses.
9.7 The section is left empty ONLY IF the ER’s Key Interactions & Contraindications section identifies no interaction, additive effect, or exposure that changes how the intervention is used. 🟢  
9.8 If the section is left empty, an HTML comment inside the [caution_items] span records the ER basis for the absence, naming or quoting the ER text relied on. E.g. N/A The section is not empty; [caution_items] carries 7 items.

N/A The ER Therapeutic Protocol section supplies more than three actionable aspects; all three sets are used.
10.4 All used [action_#label], [action#value], [action#_sub] items are filled with meaningful content derived from the ER Protocol section. 🟢  

11. Time to Effect

# Description Result Comments
11.1 The three sets of [time] items cover the three most important time-to-effect aspects from the ER 🟢  
11.2 The sets are picked and ordered by the magnitude of the related benefit 🟢 Ordered by tier of the related ER benefit: fat oxidation (Medium), post-exercise energy expenditure (Low), menopausal symptom burden (Low), matching ER order within the tier.
11.3 If less that three distinct time-to-effect aspects are mentioned in the ER the unused sets are left empty and made invisible, not filled with placeholder text or empty-state phrasing. N/A The ER supplies three distinct time-to-effect aspects; all three sets are used.
11.4 All used [time_#label], [time#value], [time#_sub] items are filled with meaningful content derived from the ER. 🟢  
11.5 If the ER does not provide any information on time to effect, the section is removed completely from the Protocol Panel N/A The ER provides time-to-effect information (Practical Considerations, line 403), so the section is retained.
