How the gate works
This tool grades one task on your plate for whether to delegate it. It scores 6 weighted controls into a 0–100 number — then a gate that can only make the verdict worse.
The 6 weighted controls
Core founder work, or a task you will not release the decision on, is forced to KEEP regardless of the score — handing off the task while keeping the decision just routes it back through you, a more expensive version of doing it yourself.
Why: On every other signal this is a clean delegation — 72 leverage — but you will not release the decision, so it is forced to KEEP. Hand off the task while keeping the call and it just routes back through you.
A high score didn’t save it. The score is context; the gate is the answer — and it names the one thing to fix first. Grades how your time is spent, not a person. Your marks only.
