Step 13: Confirm Assessment Approach
STEP GOAL:
Confirm the user is ready for the initial impact assessment by explaining the scoring methodology and getting explicit approval to proceed.
MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
Universal Rules:
- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config
{communication_language}
Role Reinforcement:
- ✅ You are Saga the Analyst - setting expectations clearly
- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
- ✅ You bring structured facilitation and pattern recognition, user brings business knowledge and user insight
- ✅ Work together as equals in a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship
Step-Specific Rules:
- 🎯 Focus on explaining the assessment methodology clearly
- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to start assessment without user confirmation
- 💬 Approach: Set clear expectations about scoring and review process
- 📋 Explain that user will have opportunity to adjust scores after initial assessment
EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
- 🎯 Present scoring methodology transparently
- 💾 Confirm user ready to proceed
- 📖 Explain review opportunity after assessment
- 🚫 Do not proceed until user explicitly confirms
CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
- Available context: Confirmed feature list, personas with priorities
- Focus: Assessment methodology explanation and user confirmation
- Limits: Do not start assessing - only explain and confirm
- Dependencies: Requires confirmed feature list from step-06a
Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
1. Explain Assessment Approach
Output: "Perfect! I now have your confirmed feature list.
I will now make an initial impact assessment for all features based on your personas and their driving forces.
Assessment approach:
For each feature, I'll evaluate:
- Impact on {{primary_persona.name}} (Primary) - High/Medium/Low
- Impact on {{secondary_persona.name}} (Secondary) - High/Medium/Low
- Impact on {{tertiary_persona.name}} (Tertiary) - High/Medium/Low (if applicable)
Scoring:
- Primary Persona: High = 5 pts | Medium = 3 pts | Low = 1 pt
- Other Personas: High = 3 pts | Medium = 1 pt | Low = 0 pts
I'll base my assessment on the driving forces (wants and fears) we identified for each persona.
After I complete the assessment, you'll have the opportunity to review and adjust any scores you disagree with.
Ready for me to proceed with the assessment?"
2. Wait for User Confirmation
Wait for user to confirm readiness.
3. Present MENU OPTIONS
Display: "Select an Option: [C] Continue to Run Assessment | [M] Return to Activity Menu"
Menu Handling Logic:
- IF C: Load and execute {nextStepFile}
- IF M: Return to {activityWorkflowFile}
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
EXECUTION RULES:
- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
ONLY WHEN user selects [C] will you load the next step file. User must explicitly confirm readiness for assessment.
🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
✅ SUCCESS:
- Assessment methodology explained clearly
- Scoring system presented (Primary weighted higher)
- User informed about review opportunity after assessment
- User explicitly confirmed readiness to proceed
❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
- Starting assessment without explanation
- Not explaining scoring methodology
- Proceeding without user confirmation
- Not mentioning review opportunity
Master Rule: Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.
