Scope check (read before piloting)
Capability boundaries: Capability matrix (scope and non-scope). Non-goals: Known limitations and non-goals (current).
Who this is for¶
- Teams who want to validate lift and operational fit before committing
- Procurement/security reviewers who need a concrete artifact trail and clear rollback story
What you will get¶
- The minimum “credible pilot” instrumentation checklist
- A recommended 2–6 week plan and exit criteria
- Links to the exact docs you will run during the evaluation
What “evaluation” means here¶
An evaluation is successful when you can answer these questions with evidence:
- Does RecSys improve a KPI you care about (with guardrails holding)?
- Can you audit what happened (logs → reports → decision trail)?
- Can you roll back safely (config/rules/manifests) and restore a known-good state?
Evaluation onboarding checklist (Phase 1)¶
- Choose one recommendation surface (for example: home feed, PDP similar-items, related content)
- Integrate
recsys-servicefor that surface (auth + tenancy + request/response contract) - Emit exposure logs and outcome logs with the same
request_id - Produce your first report (offline gate or experiment mode)
- Do one rollback drill (before you are on fire)
Minimum data requirements¶
- Stable join key:
request_idpresent in exposures and outcomes - A pseudonymous
user_idorsession_id(no raw PII) tenant_idandsurfaceon every exposure record
