article / QKV

The brief is a protocol in plain language.

QKV briefs state question, assumption, instrument, pass line, fail line, and stop rule.

A brief that can be built or tested

This page is for the person writing the one-page brief. A brief that cannot become a question, a map with empty nodes, and a trial that can miss is a wish. Turn a claim into a test another person can rerun.

Fields that belong on one page

Keep user or corpus, constraint, artifact, and a question that could embarrass the current version.

Fields that do not belong yet

Leave prestige outcomes, unnamed partners, and tool shopping off the page until the artifact exists.

When the brief is done enough

Write info@qkv.org. Fit details stay on apply.
