An observation that scores a target against a criterion (or whole rubric) — vantage = the judge, human or model: an LLM judge is just a vantage, and two models disagreeing are two coexisting cells with no winner (Principle 9). The judge model's identity and prompt digest travel as observation provenance. gmeow:assessmentCriterion / gmeow:assessmentRubric play the observationMethod ROLE but are deliberately not subproperties of it (observationMethod is functional with a QualityValue range; Criterion and Rubric are Entities — the claimModality axiom pattern). Scoring-density expectations by target granularity reuse kernel gmeow:hasGranularity on the target.

Practical Pattern

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use for a score of a target against a criterion or rubric — an observation whose vantage is the judge, human or model; disagreeing judges are coexisting cells with no winner.

Avoid when

• Avoid treating a model's score as ground truth (an LLM judge is just a vantage — Principle 9) and avoid omitting a zero score; a zero is a score, not an absence (false positives are worse than zeros).

How to use

• Mint one Assessment per criterion (a 21-axis pass is 21 Assessments), naming the target with gmeow:assessmentTarget, the criterion/rubric with gmeow:assessmentCriterion / gmeow:assessmentRubric, the score with gmeow:assessmentScoreValue, and the judge as observation vantage.

Examples

• ex:as1 a gmeow:Assessment; gmeow:assessmentTarget ex:chapter3; gmeow:assessmentCriterion ex:agency; gmeow:assessmentScoreValue 0.9.
