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.	🟢	Lede, Protocol (lines 450–478), Time to effect (489–517), gates, tiers and Monitoring all trace to ER text (Conclusion, Therapeutic Protocol, Practical Considerations, Key Interactions, Monitoring Protocol).
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 carried: “cell studies suggest it may speed” (lede), “sources differ” (action_3_sub), “Not specified in the ER” / “No established target” in Monitoring.
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”).	🟢	No strengthening or softening; “not a daily longevity supplement” matches ER Discontinuation & Cycling (“not as a daily longevity supplement”).
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.	🟢	Contraindications from ER avoid-list, interactions from documented/theoretical groups, risks from Potential Risks; no modifying factor relabeled.
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.	🟢	No PMIDs, citations, expert names, NCT IDs or brand names in the QRS.

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 expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven	🟢
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	🟢	No direct address (no “you”/”your”).
2.7	The QRS is written in plain language, avoiding unnecessary medical jargon	🟢	Technical terms (CYP3A4 substrates, sulfonylureas) are ER labels carried verbatim.
2.8	Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner	🟢
2.9	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.	🟢
2.10	The target audience is willing to employ lifestyle and behavioral changes as well as follow protocols that may be inconvenient, costly, or require effort.	🟢
2.11	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.	🟢
2.12	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.	🟢	Lede frames it as a short-course tool, not a daily longevity supplement.
2.13	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.	🟢	No “anti-aging” wording; “longevity” used.
2.14	The document’s own voice uses formal clinical and scientific terminology, not colloquial or consumer-grade language (e.g., “oral medication” not “pill(s)”; “oral” / “administered orally” not “taken by mouth” / “given by mouth”; “injection” not “shot”; “adverse event” not “bad reaction”). This holds on EVERY surface, including the QRS lede — the stricter plain-language bar (see 2.7) does not license lay phrasing for route of administration. 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, gate headings, tier labels and column headers match the template.
3.2	Every element carrying a data-qrs-var attribute in [qrs_template] is present in the QRS with the same name	🟢	All template data-qrs-var names present; marker_# and qualitative_item_# expanded per 14.2/15.2.
3.3	Everything outside the data-qrs-var spans — markup, text, styles, comments — is as in the template; spans that no checklist item addresses are left unchanged as well	🟢	Diff vs template shows changes only inside data-qrs-var spans plus pipeline-added metadata fields (duration, git_user, git_issue).

4. Formatting

#	Description	Result	Comments
4.1	An empty ER section never produces visible empty-state text in the QRS: the corresponding region is hidden or left empty. Phrases such as “None documented in human trials to date” or “Not formally studied” appear only where the ER uses them for a fact the QRS carries over.	🟢	Empty High/Medium tiers hidden; no empty-state text.
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.	🟢	Protocol labels “Emulsified oil (integrative approach)”, “Carvacrol-standardized dosing”, “Time of day” match ER bold labels verbatim.
4.3	Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented.	🟢	Example lists trimmed with ER wording kept (e.g., CYP3A4 substrates, OTC drugs, mint-family herbs).
4.4	The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels.	🟢	No emoji indicators.
4.5	The QRS is designed to render on one A4 page. It fails this item only for one of four things: a trailing clause after a dash, an optional gloss, an example list left untrimmed, or a repetition. Nothing else is cut to fit.	🟢	No trailing dash clauses, optional glosses dropped (e.g., warfarin-type gloss), example lists trimmed, no repetition.

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.	🟢	duration value quoted because it 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]”	🟢	26.10.25 matches QRS.md.

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 the full name without the version number, with all remaining words joined by hyphens (e.g., Opus, Sonnet, Grok, Gemini-Flash, GPT); when the full name has no version number or is “Unknown”, the nickname equals the full name	🟢
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 model name (the word or words directly before the version number, leaving out the first if there is more than one, e.g., Claude Opus 5.5 → Opus 5.5), the model version number and the variant (if any) as stated in the system prompt or developer instructions of the creating model, with every word capitalized and without product, effort or pricing names (e.g., Opus X.Y, Sonnet X.Y, Grok X.Y, Gemini X.Y Flash, GPT X.Y), the model name alone when the system prompt or developer instructions name a model without a version number (e.g., Grok), or “Unknown” when neither the system prompt nor the developer instructions of the creating model name a model	🟢

7. At-A-Glance Section

#	Description	Result	Comments
7.1	[at_a_glance] opens by saying what the intervention is — its kind (e.g., dietary supplement, prescription medication, peptide, plant, procedure, practice) — and what it is used for, in plain language, before any verdict on the evidence	🟢	Opens: “Oregano oil, a concentrated plant oil sold as a supplement, is promoted for gut infections…”

8.2	[stop_items] represent the Contraindications from the ER	🟢	All five ER avoid-populations 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.	🟢
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).	🟢	“within 2 weeks” and “(undiluted essential oil)” preserved.
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	No ranking notation in the ER.
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.	🟢	Section populated; ER names avoid-populations.
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	Section not empty.

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 ER’s documented interactions — the items under its “Documented interactions:” label — excluding any that are already listed as Contraindications and any entry phrased as no interaction found	🟢	Both documented interactions (iron, warfarin-type anticoagulants) listed.
9.3	[caution_theoretical_items] represent the ER’s theoretical interactions — the items under its “Theoretical interactions (inferred from mechanism, not studied in humans):” label	🟢	All eight theoretical interactions listed.
9.4	The ER placeholder “None identified” is never an item: it means that group is empty	🟢
9.5	Individual [caution_items] and [caution_theoretical_items] are formatted as <li></li>. The template’s bold “Theoretical (inferred from mechanism)” sub-heading is the only marker of the second list’s status: no item carries “(theoretical)”, “inferred from” or a mechanism clause	🟢
9.6	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.	🟢
9.7	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 kept, trimmed with ER wording.
9.8	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	No ranking notation in the ER.
9.9	If the ER’s theoretical group is empty, the whole Theoretical block — the caution_theoretical span with its sub-heading and list — is hidden with style="display:none", not removed: its spans stay in place, empty.	N/A	ER theoretical group is not empty.
9.10	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.	🟢
9.11	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, and the Theoretical block is hidden per 9.9. E.g.	N/A	Section not empty.

Pass rate 100.00%. No issues found.

Issues 11/06/2026 22:29

1. 7.5 — Unexplained “indirect studies” term: The lede at line 439 says “small, short or indirect studies”; “indirect” is an evidence-grading classification a non-specialist would not read exactly — the ER means tests of single compounds, extracts or multi-herb blends rather than the oil itself.

Fixes 11/06/2026 22:29

1. 7.5 — Unexplained “indirect studies” term: Replaced “small, short or indirect studies” with “small, short studies, mostly of related products” in the lede, and shortened “dietary supplement” to “supplement” to stay within 70 words.

Issues 11/06/2026 22:27

1. 4.3 — Benefit label paraphrased: The Low benefits list at line 534 reads “reduced surgical wound contamination” while the ER heading is “Surgical Wound Contamination”; the added “reduced” modifies the ER label.

Fixes 11/06/2026 22:27

1. 4.3 — Benefit label paraphrased: Changed “reduced surgical wound contamination” to “surgical wound contamination” in the Low benefits list, matching the ER heading.

Issues 11/06/2026 22:23

1. 2.5 — Imperative Why cell: marker_9_why at line 714 reads “Check for faster drug breakdown”, an instruction to the reader rather than a descriptive purpose like the other “Safety check: …” Why cells.

Fixes 11/06/2026 22:23

1. 2.5 — Imperative Why cell: Changed marker_9_why from “Check for faster drug breakdown” to “Safety check: faster drug breakdown”, matching the descriptive form of the other Why cells.

Issues 11/06/2026 22:21

1. 2.7 — Unexpanded jargon in cells: “SIBO” appears unexpanded in time_1_sub (line 495, “length of SIBO and parasite courses”) and marker_6_why (line 681, “SIBO response”), and “Enzyme-induction check” in marker_9_why (line 714) is technical; none is an ER label carried verbatim.
2. 4.5 — Untrimmed example lists: The theoretical items “CYP1A2 substrates (theophylline, clozapine, tizanidine, caffeine)” (line 572) and “Over-the-counter drugs (omeprazole, dextromethorphan, ibuprofen, naproxen)” (line 576) carry every ER example instead of a trimmed list.

Fixes 11/06/2026 22:21

1. 2.7 — Unexpanded jargon in cells: Replaced “SIBO” with “bacterial overgrowth” in time_1_sub and marker_6_why (“Bacterial overgrowth response”), and “Enzyme-induction check” with “Check for faster drug breakdown” in marker_9_why.
2. 4.5 — Untrimmed example lists: Trimmed “CYP1A2 substrates” to (theophylline, clozapine) and “Over-the-counter drugs” to (omeprazole, ibuprofen), keeping one example per mechanism.

Issues 11/06/2026 22:17

1. 4.5 — Sub-lines repeat values: time_1_sub (line 495) “SIBO and parasite courses lasted 4–6 weeks” and time_2_sub (line 506) “changes with carvacrol appeared after 1–2 months” restate the values directly above them; action_1_sub (line 456) “emulsified oregano oil …” repeats the label “Emulsified oil”.

Fixes 11/06/2026 22:17

1. 4.5 — Sub-lines repeat values: Trimmed time_1_sub to “length of SIBO and parasite courses”, time_2_sub to “changes with carvacrol”, and action_1_sub to “for 6 weeks in the parasite study”, removing the repeated values and label.

Issues 11/06/2026 22:14

1. 4.5 — Untrimmed and repeated example lists: The mint-family contraindication (line 549) keeps all seven names including “oregano” itself, the CYP3A4 item (line 571) repeats tacrolimus and cyclosporine from the transplant contraindication (line 550), and the supplements item (line 577) keeps six names while berberine recurs in the next item (line 578).

Fixes 11/06/2026 22:14

1. 4.5 — Trimmed example lists: Mint-family list cut from seven names to “(thyme, sage, mint, basil)”, dropping “oregano” itself; CYP3A4 list cut to “(midazolam, oral contraceptives, simvastatin)”, removing the repeat of the transplant contraindication’s drugs; supplements list cut to “(fish oil, ginkgo, berberine, St. John’s wort)” and berberine dropped from the antimicrobial-herbs item.
