Intermediate
Severity
Severity is how significant a swing fault is expected to be for performance, labeled Critical, High, Moderate, or Low.
Severity ratings let the recommendation engine prioritize: Critical and High faults are surfaced first in training recommendations because they cost the most performance. Severity is assigned by the deterministic rules from how far a value falls outside its target window and how much that pattern typically affects results.
Example
A path fault that produces a 30-yard slice is rated Critical; a minor tempo inconsistency is rated Low.

- Primary vs. Secondary FaultThe primary fault is the swing issue with the highest severity and impact on performance; the secondary fault is the most likely co-existing issue.
- Rules EngineThe rules engine is the configuration-driven core that checks your shot data and symptoms against sport-specific target windows to identify the best-fitting pattern.
