Pull request overview
This PR updates and expands repository documentation so it matches the current experiment implementation (6 trials, Iqra University/HEC stimuli context, “✨ AI Recommended” badge text, and Firestore-based persistence).
Changes:
- Adds a new root
README.mdwith quick start, deployment options, and a proposed data schema. - Updates study docs (RUNBOOK / METHODS / docs README / IRB checklist) to reflect 6 trials, current badge text, and Firebase/Firestore storage.
- Adds an MIT
LICENSEfile.

The line counts in the project tree are already out of date (e.g., index.html is 148 lines, experiment.js 490, style.css 282). Since these will drift frequently, consider removing line counts or generating them automatically.

| - Counterbalanced AI badge assignment | ||
| - Randomized trial order |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The README lists Counterbalanced AI badge assignment and Randomized trial order, but the code uses a fixed trial.target per trial and iterates through TRIALS sequentially (only left/right position is randomized). Please update these research feature bullets to reflect what actually happens, or add the missing counterbalancing/shuffle logic.
| - Counterbalanced AI badge assignment | |
| - Randomized trial order | |
| - Fixed AI badge assignment per trial (consistent across participants) | |
| - Fixed trial order across participants |
| - **Control condition:** Participants viewed 6 pairs of UI mockups with neutral labels ("Option A" / "Option B") and selected their preferred design. | ||
| - **AI Label condition:** Participants viewed the same 6 pairs, but one option in each pair displayed a "✨ AI Recommended" badge. | ||

| Assignment to conditions was randomized (50/50) using client-side JavaScript random number generation at the point of entry. |

This section says participants are randomly assigned (50/50) via client-side JavaScript, but the current implementation sets condition from the URL (?condition=ai => ai_labeled, else control). Please update the Methods text to reflect URL-based assignment (or adjust the code to actually randomize).
| Assignment to conditions was randomized (50/50) using client-side JavaScript random number generation at the point of entry. | |
| Assignment to conditions was determined via the experiment URL query parameter (`?condition=control` or `?condition=ai`), which mapped participants to the control and AI label conditions, respectively. |
| 4. Participants completed 6 trials presented in randomized order. | ||
| 5. On each trial, two UI mockups appeared side-by-side (left/right placement randomized). |

Methods states trials were presented in randomized order, but experiment.js advances sequentially through the TRIALS array (no shuffle). Please either update the document to describe a fixed trial order, or implement trial-order randomization and record the resulting order in the saved data.

| - The study involved minimal risk (viewing interface mockups and clicking preferences). | ||

| - Data was synced to Firebase Firestore (`conformity_telemetry` collection) with fallback to localStorage for offline participants. |

Ethics section claims there is a localStorage fallback for offline participants, but the code currently does not implement any local persistence on Firebase failure (it only logs a TODO comment). Please remove/qualify this statement or add the fallback behavior described.

The README mentions a localStorage fallback, but the current Firebase error path only logs a TODO comment and does not persist results to localStorage when sync fails. Please remove/qualify the fallback claim or implement an actual local persistence + retry/export mechanism.

The For Developers snippet uses TypeScript-style union types inside a JavaScript object ('ai_labeled' | 'control', 'A' | 'B'), which is not valid JavaScript and may confuse readers copying it. Consider rewriting as plain JS comments/examples or explicitly marking the block as TypeScript/pseudocode.

Firebase cloud storage with configurable retention is presented as already satisfied, but the repo doesn’t document/implement any retention configuration (e.g., TTL policy, deletion job, or documented manual process). Please clarify what mechanism enforces retention, or change the status/notes to reflect that this must be configured operationally.

| - User selection ("A" or "B") |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The listed metadata values for AI badge position and User selection are documented as "A"/"B", but the actual telemetry stores strings like Layout A/Layout B (and none for control). Please align the documented value format to the current payload so downstream analysis doesn't miscode these fields.

Closing: Fixes have already been incorporated directly into the master branch. |
Documentation contained outdated information that didn't match the production codebase: incorrect trial count (8 vs 6), generic e-commerce examples instead of actual Iqra University trials, wrong badge text, and missing Firebase integration details.
