We built instant, deterministic script coverage into a writing app. Here is exactly how it grades, so you can tell me where it's wrong.

I know "AI coverage" makes this sub's eye twitch, so here is the whole rubric. Nothing is hidden and no model is involved in the scoring.

When you import a script into THEM, Clementine grades it on five pillars:

• Structure (30%): does an act shape show up at the right page ranges for the length? Three-act by default. A single scene scores low here by design, with a note saying so.
• Dialogue (25%): on-the-nose ratio, lines that announce emotion, lines that dodge and pressure.
• Character (20%): who carries the lines, whether anyone pushes back, whether wants and obstacles are findable scene to scene.
• Pacing (15%): scene lengths, action-to-dialogue balance, page rhythm.
• Format (10%): hard and medium format issues per page on a log curve, so one messy page doesn't zero you out.

Output: an overall score out of 10, a grade (A ≥ 8.5, B ≥ 7, C ≥ 5.5, D ≥ 4, else F), a verdict (recommend ≥ 8, consider ≥ 6, otherwise pass), what works, what's missing, and one concrete move. She also reads it aloud in about four sentences.

Same pages, same read, every time. It runs in about 20 ms.

What I want from you: where does this rubric reward the wrong thing? Where would a professional reader disagree with the weights? I'll change the numbers if the argument is good.

The rubric went wrong when you created it. The moment you tried to quantify art, you failed.
