-[mgoeckel/oscar-1-32m](https://huggingface.co/mgoeckel/oscar-1-32m) (RLCD-calibrated

-through the stock `laya.Agent` seam.

-Benchmark (typed-decisions, 400 cases): 32M **0.701** acc / Brier 0.087; 17M 0.678 / 0.104 —
-at 2.5 ms vs hosted jev's ~710 ms at 0.727.
+Laya-style **System 1 decision models**: send a **state** and **typed questions**, get typed answers with
+calibrated probabilities and a confidence score. It never generates text, so there is nothing to parse
+and nothing to hallucinate.
+
+| type | question | answer |
+|---|---|---|
+| `choice` | which of these options? | the option, a probability per option, confidence |
+| `score` | where on this rubric? | a position along your levels, probabilities, confidence |
+| `noul` | is this true? | the probability that it is |
