This is not a score and it is not a rating. It is the page you write a review from:
everything you actually logged about Sarah this cycle, grouped and dated, with the evidence beside it — and the quiet
stretches shown as quiet stretches. Every line below points at a dated entry. Nothing here was made up to
fill the page.
Highlights — grouped by kind
Each one is a real, dated entry with its evidence attached. There is nothing here that isn't written down somewhere.

Something ambiguous you flagged [confirm] and haven't resolved. It is not a highlight and not a strike — the machine won't decide what it was. It's here so you don't forget to ask.

A month with nothing on file renders as a month with nothing on file. The silence is part of the record.

You met her about monthly through the spring and weekly once the design-system rollout heated up in July.
April is simply empty — nothing was written down that month.
