Working on a "Summer Recap" style feature (think Google Photos Memories), a rule-based lexical scoring system picks the top 15 photos from a user's library based on tags and assigned weights/scores for each tag. My job is to figure out if this logic is actually good enough to ship or not.

Problem is I'm non-technical, I don't have engineering bandwidth to build a proper eval pipeline, and I've got about 3 weeks to get to a ship / no-ship decision.

What I've figured out so far:

- Need a rubric for what "good" means (no screenshots/blur/duplicates, diverse across days and events, feels like an actual summer highlight reel)

- Ideally want to score sets of 15 photos, not just single best-photo picks

- Was thinking of using Claude/GPT vision as an "AI judge" against the rubric instead of manual human rating, since I don't have a rater team

- Considered building an actual lightweight no-code tool for this (Claude artifacts can call the API directly) instead of manually uploading photos into chat one set at a time

Questions for anyone who's done something similar:

1. Has anyone actually shipped an AI-judge-based eval like this without an eng team? What broke, what worked?

2. Any no-code / low-code tools you'd recommend for batch-running images through a vision model and logging structured scores (thinking Zapier, Make, Airtable + API, Google Sheets + Apps Script, that kind of thing)?

3. For a rule-based (not ML) recommender/ranking system specifically, is there a simpler eval approach I'm missing, given I don't need to retrain anything, just score outputs?

4. How many test cases would you consider the minimum for a credible go/no-go call in this kind of timeline?

Not looking for a full research operation, just need something defensible enough to bring to my manager for a ship decision. Any playbooks, war stories, or "don't bother, just do X" advice welcome.

My Kuldevi (ancestral deity) is Maa Bhadrakali. My ancestors were originally from Madhya Pradesh, but in the late 19th or early 20th century, they migrated to Bihar. When they moved, they did not bring our Kuldevi along with them. For more than a century now, she has not been worshipped by our clan, and we don't even have a temple for her in our native village.

When my sister was a child, she used to have dreams and sometimes even visions of Maa Kali. At that time, I had no idea that our Kuldevi was Bhadrakali or that we had stopped worshipping her. Personally, I am an ardent worshipper of Bhagwan Shiva and have lately been worshipping Hanuman ji as well, but I was never really drawn to Kali worship.

However, over the last one and a half years, I have had three very vivid dreams of Maa Kali.

In the first dream, I saw a massive idol of Maa Kali inside a dark cave. She was alive, with her tongue out, looking at me angrily.

In the second dream, I was in a lake filled with zombie-like creatures. In the dream, I intuitively knew they were Brahmarakshasas (a term I had never even heard of in real life before this dream). Next to the lake, an idol of Maa Kali was sitting out in the open on the bank. Despite the terrifying surroundings, I found absolute peace and protection when I approached her idol.

In the third dream, I dreamt of a temple in my native village that was in a completely dilapidated condition. In the dream, I was clearing away the vines and creepers, cleaning the deity's shrine. In reality, that exact spot in our village is currently just a piece of empty, barren land.

Following that last dream, I decided to step up. I volunteered to completely fund and construct the Kuldevi mandir myself, as the other people in my clan were not ready to contribute financially.

I’m not entirely sure why I’m sharing this here, but I wanted to ask: am I doing the right thing? Why did Maa choose to approach me like this?

I am also deeply worried about the long-term upkeep of the mandir because I live thousands of kilometers away from my native village. If the temple is built but people stop maintaining it, will it bring wrath upon our entire clan again? How do I convince my family and relatives to help maintain it? I want to explain the tangible benefits of Kuldevi worship to them so they feel motivated to keep the temple alive, even in my absence.

TL;DR: After migrating a century ago, my clan forgot and stopped worshipping our Kuldevi, Maa Bhadrakali. Recently, despite not being a Kali worshipper, I had three powerful dreams of her, including one where I was cleaning her ruined temple on a plot of land that is currently empty in my village. I have committed to funding the construction of her temple 100% alone, but I am worried about how to convince my reluctant clan to maintain it since I live thousands of kilometers away.
