Showing everything that measures Legitimacy — 1 instrument, 3 assessments, 0 trackers.Clear filter
Four depths, and you can stop at any of them. A question takes two minutes and tells you whether to keep going. An instrument takes a session and produces something you could put in front of a board.
Every one of them returns a score you can dispute, with the inputs shown. That is the point: the argument moves from whether we are right to whether the number is. Anything that returns a figure without showing what produced it is a slot machine, and we do not publish those.
One symptom, in your words. Returns a direction, not a diagnosis.
2 questionsOne dimension, properly. Returns something you could take to a colleague.
3 assessmentsThe full scored measure for one substrate, with every input shown.
1 instrumentA score is a snapshot. These are the ten worth a trend line.
0 trackersA question tells you whether the deeper version is worth your afternoon. It does not tell you what is wrong — that is what the instrument is for.
Heavier than a diagnostic, lighter than an instrument. Each returns something you could take to a board.
The graph on each row is what the instrument is looking for — teal dashed is what the substrate should do, ochre is what it does when it fails.

Composite measures. Start here if the symptom is only that something feels wrong.
The five things that make a commitment hold, and how each would be scored. In development — the dimensions are settled, the scoring is not.
A commitment binds when abandoning it is costly and the cost sits outside the committer’s control. Almost every failed pledge fails on the second clause rather than the first.
The five dimensions are not invented for the instrument — they are the argument of Commitment Without Binding and Why Net-Zero, Safety and Reform Pledges Fail, turned into things you can score. The fourth is where it meets the institute’s own thesis: a cost that lands after your tenure is not a cost to you.
A score is a snapshot. These are the ten worth watching over time, once you have a baseline.
Nothing here measures this substrate yet. That is a real gap, not a filter bug.
