Open tools for independent AI safety research.
PACT (Public Alignment & Control Tooling) builds research infrastructure, diagnostic tooling and practice environments for people doing AI safety work outside the big labs. Use them to get started, or to make the research you already do more rigorous.

Each problem runs through five phases: explore, brainstorm, plan, implement, verify. Papers, exercises and mock interviews come back on a spaced-retrieval schedule based on where you are weak. No streaks, no scores. Self-hostable, bring your own key.
pact/touchstone○ buildingA live eval rating tool that rates against public standards.
Touchstone rates evaluations live, against public standards. It is in development; its repository will show up here when it goes public.

How we build
Open source, self-hostable, runs on your own API keys. No lock-in.
Sized for one researcher or a small team, with the leverage a lab's internal tooling gives its staff.
Benchmarks and audit harnesses ship with what you need to rerun them and get the same answer.
