Dev Report — Feedback Loop
When to use
- After epic completion in any dev cycle
- User requests a development report or feedback summary
- ring:running-dev-cycle Gate 10 handoff
Skip when
- Epic was documentation-only with no code changes
- Not inside a development cycle
Collects metrics and writes a structured report for completed development epics.
Step 1: Collect Metrics
Read accumulated_metrics from each completed epic (state.epics[].accumulated_metrics),
then gather the following per epic:
yamlepic_id: {unit_id} completed_at: {ISO timestamp} agent_used: {ring:backend-go | ring:frontend | etc.} language: {go | typescript | python} service_type: {api | worker | batch | cli | frontend | bff} tdd: red_status: completed | skipped | failed green_status: completed | skipped | failed coverage: actual_percent: {float} threshold: {float} verdict: PASS | FAIL delivery: requirements_total: {int} requirements_delivered: {int} verdict: PASS | PARTIAL | FAIL quality: lint_pass: true | false file_size_violations: {int} license_violations: {int} migration_safety: PASS | FAIL | N/A
Step 2: Calculate Score
score = 0 TDD RED completed: +20 TDD GREEN completed: +20 Coverage ≥ threshold: +20 Delivery PASS: +20 Lint pass: +10 No file size violations: +5 License headers OK: +5 Total: 100 possible
Score tiers:
- 90-100: Excellent
- 80-89: Good
- 70-79: Acceptable
- < 70: Needs attention → root cause required
Step 3: Write Report
Save to docs/ring:writing-dev-reports/{epic_id}-{timestamp}.md:
markdown# Dev Report: {epic_id} **Completed:** {timestamp} **Agent:** {agent_used} **Language:** {language} | **Service Type:** {service_type} ## Score: {score}/100 ({tier}) ## Metrics | Metric | Value | Status | |--------|-------|--------| | TDD RED | {status} | ✅/❌ | | TDD GREEN | {status} | ✅/❌ | | Coverage | {actual}% (threshold: {threshold}%) | ✅/❌ | | Delivery | {delivered}/{total} requirements | ✅/⚠️/❌ | | Lint | {pass/fail} | ✅/❌ | | File Size | {violations} violations | ✅/❌ | | License | {violations} violations | ✅/❌ | ## Delivery Traceability | Requirement | Status | Evidence | |-------------|--------|----------| {per-requirement rows} ## Issues Found {list of ISSUE-XXX with severity and description} ## Root Cause (if score < 70) {mandatory analysis: what caused the gaps, pattern identification} ## Improvements for Next Cycle {1-3 concrete, actionable improvements}
Severity Reference
| Severity | Criteria |
|---|---|
| CRITICAL | Score 0 (rejected), complete workflow failure |
| HIGH | Score < 70, threshold breach |
| MEDIUM | Score 70-79, recurring pattern emerging |
| LOW | Score 80-89, minor improvements available |
