Start with cast evidence
A responsible AI I Ching reading should name the primary hexagram, upper and lower trigrams, changing lines if any, the transformed hexagram, and how those details answer the user's question.
Evidence does not mean stuffing the report with terms. The report should translate the structure into the situation: where the pressure is, what is changing, and what direction is implied.
Check whether it states limits
The I Ching is not a universal prediction machine. A good report names the decision window, the boundary of the question, and what should be verified in real life.
If every sentence sounds certain, be careful. Mature divination is not louder certainty; it is knowing what can be said, what cannot be said, and what must be tested.
End with usable action
The report should lead to one or two practical actions: pause, ask for terms, collect documents, reduce commitment, communicate directly, keep an exit path, or run a small test.
Oracle calibrates I Ching outputs toward that standard: cast evidence first, change logic second, limits third, practical guidance last.
