Feedback Loop

The system by which the output of an action is communicated back to the user, enabling them to confirm success, understand errors, and adjust behaviour accordingly.

In plain language

Every action should produce a visible response. Feedback tells users their action registered and gives them information to adjust.

In the wild

Implementations of this model aren’t wired to this view yet — they live in the implementations table.
