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. 🟢 All protocol, benefits, risks, gates, monitoring, qualitative, and at-a-glance content maps to ER passages.
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. 🟢 Speculative oral claims and null timelines keep cautious framing (e.g., “No reliable onset”, “not validated”).
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”). 🟢 Default remains no oral regimen; pregnancy/children stay absolute stops; risk–benefit stays unfavorable.
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. 🟢 Stops from populations list; cautions from interaction bullets; benefits/risks keep ER tiers.
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. 🟢 Brand names (Synthroid, Levoxyl, Tirosint, Cuprimine, Depen) appear in ER interaction bullets.
1.6 The QRS does not introduce new attributions. 🟢 No 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. 🟢 Matches ER unfavorable oral risk–benefit and limited topical medical role.
2.2 The tone of the QRS is simultaneously expert, accessible, objective, and data-driven, but also empowering and encouraging 🟢 Evidence-forward; informs decision not to use oral products for longevity aims.
2.3 The QRS reads as a trusted, knowledgeable guide rather than a prescriptive doctor 🟢 Presents ER defaults and gates without doctor-voice commands.
2.4 The QRS avoids language that implies medical or clinical advice 🟢 Decision-gate format presents ER content; footer disclaimer present.
2.5 The QRS “presents information” instead of “providing guidance”, “recommending”, or “advising” 🟢 Protocol states ER-derived defaults (e.g., “No oral regimen”) rather than “you should”.
2.6 The QRS never addresses “the reader” directly — it presents evidence, not guidance 🟢 No second-person address in variable content.
2.7 The QRS is written in plain language, avoiding unnecessary medical jargon 🟢 At-a-glance uses plain “blue-gray skin discoloration”; clinical terms mirror ER where needed.
2.8 Information is presented in a concise and very compact manner 🟢 Tier items and gates are compact; one-page condensation applied.
2.9 It DOES NOT address the reader directly 🟢 No direct address.
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. 🟢 Framed for longevity/healthspan goals throughout protocol and glance.
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. 🟢 Monitoring and qualitative markers assume proactive tracking if exposure occurs.
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. 🟢 Not dumbed-down general-pop framing.
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. 🟢 Oral use unfavorable vs infection-control foundations; topical medical use distinct.
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. 🟢 Uses healthspan/longevity language; no anti-aging framing.
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. 🟢 Formal terms (regimen, clinician-supervised, malabsorption); teaspoon–tablespoon is ER language.

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 and tier/column labels match template wording.
3.2 All “” from the [qrs_template] are present in the the QRS. 🟢 Expected data-qrs-var spans present (header, glance, actions, times, benefits, risks, stops, cautions, markers 1–6, cadence, qualitative 1–4).
3.3 Spans that are not addressed in a checklist item are left unchanged 🟢 No evidence of unsolicited span edits outside content fills.

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 used by the QRS is empty.
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 action labels match ER bold labels exactly.
4.3 Labels are not paraphrased, abbreviated, or invented. 🟢 Protocol labels verbatim from ER; interaction/contraindication wording tracks ER bullets.
4.4 The QRS DOES NOT use emoji indicators (no 🟩, 🟥, 🟨, etc.). Color and emphasis are conveyed through CSS and bold labels. 🟢 No emoji tier indicators.
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 condensed to single-sheet structure.

Issues 01/08/2026 11:45

  1. 4.2 / 4.3 — Quinolone label abbreviated: Key Interaction item uses “Quinolone antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, norfloxacin)” instead of the ER bold label “Quinolone antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, norfloxacin, and related)”.

Fixes 01/08/2026 11:46

  1. 4.2 / 4.3 — Quinolone label restored: Restored ER bold label wording by adding “, and related” to the Key Interaction quinolone item so it matches “Quinolone antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, norfloxacin, and related)”.

Issues 01/08/2026 11:36

  1. 4.3 — Interaction labels paraphrased: Caution list shortens ER bold label “Other metal-sensitive or absorption-sensitive oral drugs” to “Other absorption-sensitive oral drugs”, and merges “Additive antimicrobial topicals” with “Additive supplement effects” into an invented hybrid label.

  2. 7.4 — Technical term in at-a-glance: At-a-glance uses clinical-register “organ deposition”; plain-language form should be used (e.g., “buildup in organs”).

Fixes 01/08/2026 11:36

Issues 01/08/2026 11:30

  1. 1.3 — TSH target hedge dropped: Monitoring TSH target is “~0.5–2.5 mIU/L” without the ER parenthetical “(functional targets vary)”, which strengthens the range as fixed.

  2. 4.2 / 4.3 — Protocol labels not verbatim: Protocol action labels use invented phrases (“Longevity default”, “Consumer oral pattern”, “Medical topical”) instead of ER bold labels (“Evidence-based default for healthspan goals”, “Historical / alternative-medicine oral patterns (not validated)”, “Medical topical protocols (distinct intervention class)”).

  3. 4.3 — Monitoring marker labels abbreviated: Marker names drop ER parentheticals: “Skin/nail color (clinical)” → “Skin/nail color”; “ALT / AST (liver enzymes)” → “ALT / AST”.
