the cognitive telescope runs a curated 10-prompt benchmark through every major frontier model, every day, and publishes a cognometric fingerprint per model. K · C · D per axis. seven fault rates. trust score. gate distribution. the first public dataset of how commercial LLMs' cognition behaves over time.
aggregate K / C / D axes and per-fault rates on the Telescope-Bank-v0 prompt set. higher K = more reasoning work. higher C = stronger cross-phase coherence. higher D = more expression-computation dissociation (bad). fault rates are fraction of prompts flagged.
