Published HR survey-instrument registry
A data-driven registry of PUBLISHED HR survey instruments fielded on the survey-orchestrator engine we already own — NOT a bespoke battery per instrument (that pattern stays for Mike's proprietary CAMS/EE/CoI/LMR composites). One registry + one generic subscale-mean scorer + one route trio + one MCP tool set covers all. 11 instruments mined from the field-defining-HR corpus (canonicai _clusters/field-defining-hr), each PARAPHRASED-after + cited (never verbatim; only CAMS is verbatim in this spoke): UWES-9, Google Upward Feedback Survey, an honest census-illustrative battery after Googlegeist, the Ulrich HRBP pair (HR Role-Assessment four-role model + HRCS six competency domains), the Buckingham/ADP Team Engagement Pulse, the PFIT fair-interpersonal-treatment scale (two reverse-coded items), Pink's Autonomy Audit, the Kegan & Lahey DDO-360, Becker's Line-Manager HR Responsibilities, and a direction-aware turnover-risk composite (APA-Handbook turnover antecedents harmonized to one scale + risk-oriented via reverse-coding so protective/risk constructs compose into one turnover-RISK index). One mined instrument stays deferred (PAT-HR-INSTR-2, the Knowing-Doing dual-form gap survey — needs a two-administration diff design).

Maturity evidence
- Functioning
- 17 unit tests (tsx --test src/spokes/survey-orchestrator/tests/hr-instruments.test.ts): every instrument validates the PublishedInstrument schema, the no-verbatim guardrail holds, subscale/total math + reverse-coding (incl. PFIT real-data) + min-N suppression + segment split, seeded-example contract, the Ulrich four-role + six-domain structure, and a turnover-risk direction-validation test (committed/low-intention → min risk; the mirror → max). contract 0.17.0; registry 1.0.0 -> 1.1.0. check:spokes clean (0 required gaps). check:types-changed clean.
- Valuable
- Turns the field-defining-HR corpus into fieldable, benchmarkable measurement — the fast-win half of the HR Field Program. Off-the-shelf published instruments (engagement, manager feedback, HRBP/operating-model, fairness, autonomy, developmental culture) that field on the survey engine we already own, contribute to the benchmark moat by design, and back the guide->tool funnel.
- Understood
- src/spokes/survey-orchestrator/README.md + CHANGELOG (0.17.0 + registry 1.1.0) + Layer-1 mermaid + session reports 2026-07-09-hr-survey-instrument-registry.md. Provenance discipline (paraphrased-after + cited) documented per instrument; one deferred instrument war-carded PAT-HR-INSTR-2 (Knowing-Doing dual-form gap).
- Integrated
- Extends the live survey-orchestrator spoke — same engine, same min-N gate, same MCP transport; no new spoke, no bespoke tool per instrument. Benchmark-store contribution rides PAT-FC-SURVEY-BENCH-1 (the survey kind, blocked on Principia); the scorer is a pure read until then.
