+# Baseline Quality Assessment Components
+
+**Purpose**: V_meta(s₀) calculation components for strong iteration 0
+**Target**: V_meta(s₀) ≥ 0.40 for rapid convergence
+
+---
+
+## Formula
+
+```
+V_meta(s₀) = 0.4 × completeness +
+             0.3 × transferability +
+             0.3 × automation_effectiveness
+```
+
+---
+
+## Component 1: Completeness (40%)
+
+**Definition**: Initial pattern/taxonomy coverage
+
+**Calculation**:
+```
+completeness = initial_items / estimated_final_items
+```
+
+**Achieve ≥0.50**:
+- Analyze ALL available data (3-5 hours)
+- Create 10-15 initial categories/patterns
+- Classify ≥70% of observed cases
+
+**Example (Error Recovery)**:
+```
+Initial: 10 categories (1,056/1,336 = 79.1% coverage)
+Estimated final: 12-13 categories
+Completeness: 10/12.5 = 0.80
+Contribution: 0.4 × 0.80 = 0.32
+```
+
+---
+
+## Component 2: Transferability (30%)
+
+**Definition**: Reusable patterns from prior art
+
+**Calculation**:
+```
+transferability = borrowed_patterns / total_patterns_needed
+```
+
+**Achieve ≥0.30**:
+- Research similar methodologies (1-2 hours)
+- Identify industry standards
+- Document borrowable patterns (≥30%)
+
+**Example (Error Recovery)**:
+```
+Borrowed: 5 industry error patterns
+Total needed: ~10
+Transferability: 5/10 = 0.50
+Contribution: 0.3 × 0.50 = 0.15
+```
+
+---
+
+## Component 3: Automation (30%)
+
+**Definition**: Early identification of high-ROI automation
+
+**Calculation**:
+```
+automation_effectiveness = identified_tools / expected_tools
+```
+
+**Achieve ≥0.30**:
+- Frequency analysis (1 hour)
+- Identify top 3-5 automation candidates
+- Estimate ROI (≥5x)
+
+**Example (Error Recovery)**:
+```
+Identified: 3 tools (all with >20x ROI)
+Expected final: 3 tools
+Automation: 3/3 = 1.0
+Contribution: 0.3 × 1.0 = 0.30
+```
+
+---
+
+## Quality Levels
+
+### Excellent (V_meta ≥ 0.60)
+
+**Achieves**:
+- Completeness: ≥0.70
+- Transferability: ≥0.60
+- Automation: ≥0.70
+
+**Effort**: 6-10 hours
+**Outcome**: 3-4 iterations
+
+### Good (V_meta = 0.40-0.59)
+
+**Achieves**:
+- Completeness: ≥0.50
+- Transferability: ≥0.30
+- Automation: ≥0.30
+
+**Effort**: 4-6 hours
+**Outcome**: 4-5 iterations
+
+### Fair (V_meta = 0.20-0.39)
+
+**Achieves**:
+- Completeness: 0.30-0.50
+- Transferability: 0.20-0.30
+- Automation: 0.20-0.30
+
+**Effort**: 2-4 hours
+**Outcome**: 5-7 iterations
+
+### Poor (V_meta < 0.20)
+
+**Indicates**:
+- Minimal baseline work
+- Exploratory phase needed
+
+**Effort**: <2 hours
+**Outcome**: 7-10 iterations
