2. **Grade each file**: Apply rubric from [references/rubric.md](references/rubric.md)
3. **Generate report**: Score card + prioritized issues + improvement plan
4. **On approval**: Implement changes using [references/improvement-patterns.md](references/improvement-patterns.md)
5. **Verify**: Re-grade to confirm improvements
