Accountability Mirror Protocol — accountability against a mastermind

What mastermind does well: provides peer perspective, a recurring external commitment, and exposure to how other people solve the same problem.

What it does not do: operate between sessions, which is where the week actually happens.

Do this first. Isolation is the constraint and you would benefit from being asked about it by peers.

Do not do this. Treating the two as substitutes. A fortnightly external check and a daily internal loop are complements, not alternatives.

How do I find out what I actually did rather than what I meant to do? Write checkable commitments in advance and score only artefacts that exist afterwards.

When this framework is the right one. Use it when your sense of how the week went and what actually got finished have started to disagree.

Worked example: choosing between a mastermind and a written structure for accountability

How do I find out what I actually did rather than what I meant to do? Isolation is the constraint and you would benefit from being asked about it by peers.

Operate between sessions, which is where the week actually happens. A fortnightly external check and a daily internal loop are complements, not alternatives.

Write the commitment before the period starts, in a form that can be checked without interpretation.

What to measure. Met, partial, and not-met counts, plus the one change made for the next period.

Running Accountability Mirror Protocol for accountability support

Self-assessment drifts because it is scored on effort and intent, both of which are visible from the inside. The mirror scores only on artefacts, which are visible from the outside, and shows the gap between what was committed and what exists.

  1. Write the commitment before the period starts, in a form that can be checked without interpretation.
  2. At the end of the period, list only what exists: files, sent messages, shipped changes, decisions recorded.
  3. Put the two lists side by side and mark each commitment met, partially met, or not met.
  4. Change one thing for the next period, and change the commitment rather than the effort.

The full set of failure modes for this framework, the evidence to record, and a prompt you can paste are on its framework page. This page covers the part specific to accountability support.

What this is not. It is not a performance review and it is not for anyone else to read. It is a measurement instrument, and instruments that shame you get switched off.

Evidence that it is working: met, partial, and not-met counts, plus the one change made for the next period.

Organizational support only. It is not clinical, legal, or financial advice.

Comparison disclosure

Mastermind is a category rather than a single product, so this page makes no claim about any specific provider's features, pricing, or terms, and cites no official source for the category because none exists. It compares what a category of tool is for against what an operating structure is for.

Methodology: category-level buyer fit compared on operating structure, what each thing decides, implementation burden, and where each one stops.
