Metrics & Diagnostics

Five gauges.
One hierarchy.

P&L alone is a terrible compass. MARS grades the machine with a strict hierarchy of five metrics, each answering one question — then runs structural diagnostics underneath to expose what raw numbers hide.

Core metrics — in order of authority

Five questions. Always in this order.

A strong answer lower in the hierarchy never overrides a weak answer above it. Edge without survival is worthless; velocity without stability is a lock event waiting to happen.

Structural diagnostics

What the surface numbers hide.

Six diagnostic reads that expose contradiction, drift, distortion, and leakage before they become drawdown.

Every metric lives inside the workbooks.

These aren’t theory pages — each metric is calculated, tracked, and interpreted inside the MARS module ecosystem.
