+# Model-Judge Calibration Notes
+
+This file is the curated, human-readable calibration summary for the define-product manual pointwise model-judge lane. Raw provider result bundles under `evals/results/**` remain local/ignored and are not committed.
+
+Deterministic eval verdicts remain authoritative. Pointwise model-judge evidence is manual, advisory, and cannot upgrade deterministic blockers.
+
+## Run Set
+
+These notes summarize the existing local provider-backed runs from July 4, 2026. No fresh provider calls were made for this curated summary.

+## Human Calibration Notes
+
+- False pass risk: no false-pass evidence observed in the P0 expected-bad runs.
+- False fail risk: no false-fail evidence observed in the P0 expected-good runs.
+- Ambiguity: no `partial` or `unknown` verdicts appeared in these runs.
+- Verbosity bias: no evidence that verbose PRD wording was required for coverage.
+- Reference wording bias: current evidence is based on local committed fixtures; future expansions should continue to check for semantic coverage rather than reference-text matching.
+- Unknown rate: zero unknown verdicts in the summarized run set.
+
+## Decision
+
+Keep the define-product pointwise lane manual and advisory. The P0 calibration behavior is acceptable for local product-intent judging: good fixtures covered the intended items, and bad fixtures remained adverse.
