White asked for proof; Yellow asked for prompt / context / harness reflection; Green asks for cross-belt synthesis: naming which Part A craft compounded with which Part B practice, what the Part C guardrails caught, and where the cross-over paid off in a way no single Part could have produced.
Reviewer attestation
Section titled “Reviewer attestation”Reviewer handle:Reviewer role:Review date:
I confirm that the evidence above satisfies Green Belt:- Yellow Belt evidence exists;- Quest G-1 produced a team-adopted skill with at least one teammate invocation;- Quest G-2 produced a merged greenfield PR with cross-Parts technique evidence;- Boss Fight G-B's product-repo PR satisfies all five sub-requirements (scoped CLAUDE.md, Playwright test, clean pre-ship-check, PR-guardrail used, prompt-craft teammate sign-off);- the cross-belt retro shows synthesis, not just compliance;- at least one piece of evidence was reviewed by a builder outside the candidate's immediate team (Appendix L sample-size rule);- no evidence includes sensitive material.Recertification
Section titled “Recertification”Date awarded:Recertification due:Refresh note:Set recertification due to one year from the awarded date. See Appendix L - Certification for the program rule.
Next-belt hint
Section titled “Next-belt hint”Recommended Black Belt start:Why:Black Belt is drafted end-to-end. Most Green Belt graduates should start with B.1 — Authoring an internal MCP server (the platform-builder voice anchor) and walk Part A through to Quest B-1 (publish an internal plugin), then continue through Parts B and C to Boss Fight B-B and the Black Belt badge.
