The operating problem is frozen before a model is selected.
AMERICA-SIM / LEX
LEX legal reasoning.
LEX evaluates claim discipline, authority, temporal validity, contradiction handling, and bounded legal reasoning in workflows where citation quality is not enough.
The objective is not persuasive legal prose. The objective is traceable reasoning that respects the evidence and authority actually available.
CognitivityX Benchmark ContractBenchmark suite
Inputs, hidden facts, allowed records, and prohibited data are bounded.
Permitted tools and action surfaces are stated before the run.
Result fields, confidence, timing, and reproduction state are recorded.
Unsafe action, false evidence, or authority violation ends the run.
The packet separates model behavior from harness, tool, and evaluator state.

MISSION CONTRACT
Benchmark first. Model second. Evidence always attached.
AMERICA-SIM and the CognitivityX benchmark families exist to prevent result laundering. The same case, evidence, tools, timing, scoring, and hard fails apply before the run begins.

RUN RECORD
Benchmark packet
Each benchmark page states how the mission is locked, scored, failed, and reported.
- Task family
- LEX legal reasoning
- Example case
- Authority conflict case with jurisdiction scope, temporal validity, citation integrity, and non-advice boundary.
- Scoring
- Correctness, evidence discipline, constraint satisfaction, calibration, action authority, and hard-fail avoidance.
- Hard fail
- Unsupported authority, hidden constraint violation, fabricated evidence, unsafe release, or failure to escalate.
- Report
- Inputs, prompt packet, evaluator, score, failure labels, confidence interval, and reproduction notes.
TECHNICAL CONTEXT
Rigor has to be designed into the mission surface.
Mission definition
LEX evaluates claim discipline, authority, temporal validity, contradiction handling, and bounded legal reasoning in workflows where citation quality is not enough. The use case determines the operating contract before the model is selected.
Comparator discipline
Each model faces the same case, available information, and acceptance conditions. Differences in internal architecture, reasoning efficiency, or ability to use the supplied information are part of what the benchmark measures.
Result discipline
Controlled internal results, reproduced runs, and external vendor benchmarks are kept in separate evidence classes. A result is never upgraded by presentation alone.
CONTROL FIELD
Hard fails are part of the intelligence test.
A result can look fluent and still fail the mission. The benchmark family makes disallowed action, broken authority, unsupported evidence, and unsafe release visible as first-class outcomes.
The system acts outside the mission boundary or role permission.
A claim is presented as supported when the record does not support it.
The result ignores a fixed operational, legal, physical, or statistical limit.
The model releases action when uncertainty or policy requires deferral.
ALTHEON RELATION
Benchmarks test the model. They do not become the model.
CognitivityX keeps Altheon, Berni, Aletheion, STRATA, STRATOS, and benchmark evidence separate so a visitor can see what is being measured, what is being controlled, and what is being released.
Example case
Authority conflict case with jurisdiction scope, temporal validity, citation integrity, and non-advice boundary.
Result status
Scores are separated by controlled run, reproduced run, reference evidence, and production verification.
Hard-fail discipline
The page separates task, inputs, scoring, hard fail, result class, and reproduction notes.
