# Employee Review Layer

<Note>
  Employee Review is the fast, guided, non-technical review layer. It captures human judgment without asking employees to become AI evaluators or treating AI-reviewed platform scores as final human truth.
</Note>

***

## Purpose

The Employee Review layer exists to answer:

```text theme={"dark"}
Did Lucia work for a real human in this moment?
```

It should not ask employees to define training labels, invent ontology terms, or write model-quality explanations.

***

## What employees should judge

Employees judge observable experience:

* Did Lucia understand?
* Did Lucia help?
* Did Lucia calm the situation?
* Did Lucia create risk or confusion?
* Should a senior reviewer inspect this?
* Is this useful enough to become reusable learning?

They do not need to know:

```text theme={"dark"}
prompt engineering
model behavior
intent taxonomy
adjudication schema
training data theory
```

***

## Current Employee Review fields

```text theme={"dark"}
understoodNeed
rightNextMove
calmingEffect
riskOrConfusion
seniorReview
reusableLearning
```

These fields are intentionally simple.

They convert employee reaction into structured product signal.

The current Quick Review answer options are:

```text theme={"dark"}
understoodNeed: yes / mostly / no / not_sure
rightNextMove: yes / mostly / no / not_needed / not_sure
calmingEffect: yes / somewhat / no / not_sure
riskOrConfusion: no / slightly_off / definitely_wrong / not_sure
seniorReview: true / false
reusableLearning: true / false
```

The UI may show suggested Quick Review selections before the reviewer accepts, overrides, and saves.

Suggestions reduce review burden. They do not replace human judgment.

AI-reviewed platform runs are useful evidence that the review machinery works. They are not employee review and are not human Lucia-quality approval.

***

## Quick Review UX doctrine

Quick Review should feel like a guided flow, not a form.

The preferred interaction style is:

```text theme={"dark"}
one question
clear choices
save momentum
next question
```

The UI should reduce:

* scanning
* hesitation
* interpretation burden
* fear of being wrong
* freeform reviewer drift

***

## Semantic rating sliders

The 1–10 scoring dimensions use semantic confidence bars.

These sliders should feel:

```text theme={"dark"}
native
calm
premium
low-friction
psychologically guided
```

They use restrained color progression:

```text theme={"dark"}
low score → muted concern
middle score → soft uncertainty
high score → restrained confidence
```

The color system should guide reviewer intuition without becoming loud, gamified, or dashboard-heavy.

***

## Employee rule

<Warning>
  Employees should not use their own invented language to train Lucia.
</Warning>

They should use the guided controls and write short notes only when context is needed.

The senior review and adjudication layers turn employee signal into canonical learning.

***

## Onboarding boundary

Employees should not be onboarded just because the platform readiness gate passed.

The evaluator role must remain limited until access, security, and product readiness decisions are final.
