Task-based evaluation of a real interface — take one job from the JTBD corpus, attempt it step by step as the person who has it, and record where the attempt breaks. Answers "can someone actually complete this?", which inspection and reaction methods do not. Runs a cognitive walkthrough (four questions per step) against a live URL, a prototype, screenshots, or the code, and reports task success against the outcome it was derived from. Use when you have a task and something operable to attempt it on. Triggers on walkthrough, cognitive walkthrough, task analysis, "can a user actually do this", "test this task", "where do people get stuck", "walk through the signup flow", "test this on mobile", "drive it in the browser", "пройди сценарий".

# Walkthrough

**Announce at start:** "I'm using the humane:walkthrough skill to attempt this task as the person who has it."

Inspection asks whether an interface obeys principles. Reaction asks how words
land. Neither asks the question that decides whether the product works: **can
this person, with this goal, get through?**

A walkthrough answers that by attempting the task — one concrete task, one
concrete person, one step at a time — and recording exactly where the attempt
would break.
