Mentorship quality (backlog)

Follow-up work for how well a mentor is doing, after the opt-in mentor guide and users.mentor_became_at tenure stamp.

Cross-links: Mentorship, Messaging.

Goal: Let mentees (and later churches) give human feedback on a mentor — a rating distinct from activity metrics.

v1 gap: No rating columns, no submit UI, no aggregation. Becoming a mentor only records guide acceptance and tenure.

Sketch:

  • Who rates: primarily the mentee on an active or recently ended pairing
  • When: after a pairing ends, or on a cadence while active (decide at implementation)
  • Store: per-mentorship ratings, plus a denormalized aggregate on the user for display
  • Visibility: mentor may see an aggregate; raw comments policy TBD

Goal: A score derived from activity and/or AI (step reviews completed, guide adherence, message moderation, study outcomes on mentees) — not a substitute for human rating.

v1 gap: No computed score, no job, no display.

Dependencies: enough mentorship activity to be meaningful; AI guidelines for any automated quality signal.
