+![Probity demo — the same question asked 20 times, same clause, same model, flipping between pre-money and post-money](demo/demo.gif)
+
+LLMs are fundamentally probabilistic. Ask one the same question twice and you can get two
+different answers — that's not a bug, it's how sampling works. Most of the time that's fine. It is
+**not fine** when the question is "is this a pre-money or post-money valuation" and the answer
+decides who owns what in a startup financing. Finance needs determinism; LLMs supply probability.
+Nobody was measuring that gap, so Probity does: it benchmarks how often a model's answer *wobbles*
+on real term sheets, charters, SAFEs, convertible notes, and cap tables — before you ever get to
+whether the answer is right.
+
+- **Wobble** (the core metric) — does the model give the *same* answer when you ask it the same
+  question 20 times at temperature 0.7? A model whose answer flips run to run cannot be trusted in
+  a workflow that touches money, even when it is often right. This is label-free: it needs no
+  ground truth, only repetition.
+- **Accuracy** — does the model get the answer *right*, graded against a validated answer that a
+  human extracted from the source document (not authored by an AI)?
+
+These are scored separately and never averaged into one headline — a model can be perfectly
+consistent and consistently wrong. Models are run across a **size ladder** (1B → 12B local, plus a
+hosted model) to test whether wobble falls as capability rises. Heavier models (a 27B local model
+and hosted frontier models) are reserved for a single comprehensive sweep once every test is built.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+### Option A — install the package (fastest way to run a real benchmark yourself)
+
+```bash
+pip install probity-bench
+probity-bench onboard   # pick documents to fetch, models to run, and store your API key(s)
+```
+
+`onboard` is a guided wizard — same idea as `openclaw onboard` or `claude setup`: it walks you
+through which leaves to pull real SEC documents for, which models to benchmark (auto-detects local
+Ollama models; DeepSeek/Gemini for hosted), and collects + **verifies** any API key by making one
+real call before it lets you proceed. Everything is stored locally at `~/.probity/` — nothing
+leaves your machine except the model calls you explicitly configure.
+
+![Probity onboarding — documents, models, and API key setup, all local](demo/onboard.gif)
+
+The package ships the **full pipeline** — `engine/`, all 60 leaves' code, oracles, and prior
+results — everything except the raw SEC documents themselves (fetch those via `onboard` or
+`source.py`, per leaf) and, obviously, no model weights (those come from Ollama/DeepSeek/Gemini).
+
+```bash
+probity-bench demo       # zero-config: replay a real wobble example, no install/network needed
+probity-bench results    # print the 2 summary tables from bundled scored.json
+probity-bench list       # every leaf + whether you've fetched its corpus
+probity-bench run <leaf> # fetch (if needed) + benchmark one leaf with your configured models
+```
+
+### Option B — clone the repo (full reproducibility, no package boundary)
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/eikiyo/probity.git
+cd probity
+make setup     # runs the test suite + regenerates results/RESULTS.md + this README's tables from disk
+```
+
+That's it — zero third-party dependencies, pure Python 3 stdlib, no network call, no API key.
+(No `make`? `python3 -m unittest discover -s tests && python3 results/render.py` does the same thing.)
+
+To **re-run a test yourself** against live models (needs [Ollama](https://ollama.com) running
+`gemma3:1b` locally + a DeepSeek API key — see [`.env.example`](.env.example)):
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env && set -a && source .env && set +a
+cd leaves/vesting_schedule       # or any other leaf under leaves/
+python3 source.py                # fetch the real SEC documents into corpus/
+python3 run.py                   # run the model ladder, N=20 each, writes scored.json
+python3 ../../results/render.py  # regenerate the tables with your fresh numbers
+```
+
+## Benchmark results
+
+<!-- BENCHMARK:START -->

+
+## Why the answers are trustworthy
+
+Most LLM benchmarks in niche domains are built from synthetic data with synthetic answers. That has
+a hidden flaw: if an AI writes both the question and the answer key, the answer key can be wrong in
+exactly the ways the model under test is wrong. Probity avoids this with a strict **oracle layer**:
+
+1. **Source a real document** that contains the ground truth in its own authoritative text — for
+   example, a Certificate of Incorporation filed with the SEC that states, in legally precise
+   language, whether its preferred stock is participating.
+2. **A human separates the question from the answer.** The model sees only the clause (the question).
+   The validated label, plus the exact quote that proves it, is stored in a separate oracle file the
+   model never sees. Items whose answer cannot be determined with confidence are *excluded*, not guessed.
+3. **Run only the question** through each model, N times, and score the majority answer against the
+   validated label.
+
+Synthetic instantiation is used only to *multiply* difficulty (varying numbers, off-market terms,
+ambiguous phrasing) on top of a real, human-validated seed — never as the sole source of truth.
+
+## The test map
+
+Probity's full test backlog is a structured map of fundraising-reasoning capabilities
+(`engine/registry.json`) — 67 atomic checks across priced equity, convertibles, cap-table math,
+exit waterfalls, investor rights, founder equity, regulatory filings, and off-market risk flags.
+Each check is built one at a time, to depth, against real sourced documents.

+  question 20 times at temperature 0.7? A model whose answer flips run to run cannot be trusted in
+  a workflow that touches money, even when it is often right. This is label-free: it needs no
+  ground truth, only repetition.
+- **Accuracy** — does the model get the answer *right*, graded against a validated answer that a
+  human extracted from the source document (not authored by an AI)?
+
+These are scored separately and never averaged into one headline — a model can be perfectly
+consistent and consistently wrong. Models are run across a **size ladder** (1B → 12B local, plus a
+hosted model) to test whether wobble falls as capability rises. Heavier models (a 27B local model
+and hosted frontier models) are reserved for a single comprehensive sweep once every test is built.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+### Option A — install the package (fastest way to run a real benchmark yourself)
+
+```bash
+pip install probity-bench
+probity-bench onboard   # pick documents to fetch, models to run, and store your API key(s)
+```
+
+`onboard` is a guided wizard — same idea as `openclaw onboard` or `claude setup`: it walks you
+through which leaves to pull real SEC documents for, which models to benchmark (auto-detects local
+Ollama models; DeepSeek/Gemini for hosted), and collects + **verifies** any API key by making one
+real call before it lets you proceed. Everything is stored locally at `~/.probity/` — nothing
+leaves your machine except the model calls you explicitly configure.
+
+![Probity onboarding — documents, models, and API key setup, all local](demo/onboard.gif)
+
+The package ships the **full pipeline** — `engine/`, all 60 leaves' code, oracles, and prior
+results — everything except the raw SEC documents themselves (fetch those via `onboard` or
+`source.py`, per leaf) and, obviously, no model weights (those come from Ollama/DeepSeek/Gemini).
+
+```bash
+probity-bench demo       # zero-config: replay a real wobble example, no install/network needed
+probity-bench results    # print the 2 summary tables from bundled scored.json
+probity-bench list       # every leaf + whether you've fetched its corpus
+probity-bench run <leaf> # fetch (if needed) + benchmark one leaf with your configured models
+```
+
+### Option B — clone the repo (full reproducibility, no package boundary)
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/eikiyo/probity.git
+cd probity
+make setup     # runs the test suite + regenerates results/RESULTS.md + this README's tables from disk
+```
+
+That's it — zero third-party dependencies, pure Python 3 stdlib, no network call, no API key.
+(No `make`? `python3 -m unittest discover -s tests && python3 results/render.py` does the same thing.)
+
+To **re-run a test yourself** against live models (needs [Ollama](https://ollama.com) running
+`gemma3:1b` locally + a DeepSeek API key — see [`.env.example`](.env.example)):
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env && set -a && source .env && set +a
+cd leaves/vesting_schedule       # or any other leaf under leaves/
+python3 source.py                # fetch the real SEC documents into corpus/
+python3 run.py                   # run the model ladder, N=20 each, writes scored.json
+python3 ../../results/render.py  # regenerate the tables with your fresh numbers
+```
+
+## Benchmark results
+
+<!-- BENCHMARK:START -->
+*60 tests, each item run 20x/item at temp 0.7 across a model size ladder. **Wobble** (lower = better) is the run-to-run inconsistency rate, weighted by item count across every test that model ran. Full per-test breakdown (all 60 tables): [`results/RESULTS.md`](results/RESULTS.md).*

+
+## Why the answers are trustworthy
+
+Most LLM benchmarks in niche domains are built from synthetic data with synthetic answers. That has
+a hidden flaw: if an AI writes both the question and the answer key, the answer key can be wrong in
+exactly the ways the model under test is wrong. Probity avoids this with a strict **oracle layer**:
+
+1. **Source a real document** that contains the ground truth in its own authoritative text — for
+   example, a Certificate of Incorporation filed with the SEC that states, in legally precise
+   language, whether its preferred stock is participating.
+2. **A human separates the question from the answer.** The model sees only the clause (the question).
+   The validated label, plus the exact quote that proves it, is stored in a separate oracle file the
+   model never sees. Items whose answer cannot be determined with confidence are *excluded*, not guessed.
+3. **Run only the question** through each model, N times, and score the majority answer against the
+   validated label.
+
+Synthetic instantiation is used only to *multiply* difficulty (varying numbers, off-market terms,
+ambiguous phrasing) on top of a real, human-validated seed — never as the sole source of truth.
+
+## The test map
+
+Probity's full test backlog is a structured map of fundraising-reasoning capabilities
+(`engine/registry.json`) — 67 atomic checks across priced equity, convertibles, cap-table math,
+exit waterfalls, investor rights, founder equity, regulatory filings, and off-market risk flags.
+Each check is built one at a time, to depth, against real sourced documents.
+
+## Structure
