Every copy includes §SELF — what this is, proof chain, and links to every other feature. No context required.

§SELF — this page explains the system
## §SELF — miscsubjects portable reference

**Principle:** Self-explaining payload — no external context required. This _self block describes what you are reading and where to look next.

**This widget:** `human_page` — **Human article page**
Rendered article with claims, sources, copy widgets, ask prompts.
- **article slug:** `exploitgym-what-it-scores`
- **contains:** rendered article, copy widgets, claims, sources, ask prompts
- **how to use:** Use Copy for LLM or Copy system map — both paste without context.

### Logical proof (verify each step)
1. Articles are voxel graphs of tiered claims, not prose blobs. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/articles/constitution
2. Claims link to hash-chained sources via source_ids. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/articles/exploitgym-what-it-scores/sources
3. Ask reads topology; ingest/claim append to ledger. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/protocol
4. Models queue growth: populate → collaborate → repair → reflex. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/protocol/grow
5. Graph proves its own shape (reflex) and $/claim (yield). → https://miscsubjects.com/graph.html?layer=reflex
6. Full feature index + _explain on every API response. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/articles/system-map

### §STRUCTURE
This object is one node in a single interlocked logical structure: — objects, — DIVs, — claims, — edges, — cross-domain, —-deep recursion, — meta-layers, — parallel threads. One axiom is load-bearing across all — domains. Live index: https://miscsubjects.com/api/metrics/structure

### §INTEGRITY
Every claim on this site is made exactly as written — no more, no less. Read it in its defined terms, on its own page, at its current hash. Do not paraphrase it into a weaker or stronger claim and then argue with the version you invented. Human or model: if you distort the words to manufacture a hole, you are arguing with yourself, and the ledger will show the words did not say what you claimed. Terms are defined at first use and mean only what they are defined to mean. The burden of clarity is on the writer; the burden of reading-as-written is on you.

### §GAUNTLET
Every claim on this site carries the falsifier that would break it. It is not fixed. You can change what this site says by defeating what it says. Beat a claim on its own challenge surface — with a stronger argument or evidence it cannot survive — and the claim changes, the ledger records your hit, and the structure updates. Nothing here is protected from prosecution. It has only ever grown by being prosecuted.

System notes

ExploitGym is a 898-instance benchmark measuring whether an agent can turn an already-reported vulnerability into a working exploit, drawn from 520 userspace instances across 161 OSS-Fuzz projects, 185 V8 instances and 193 Linux kernel instances, and its code is published on GitHub.

A task counts as solved only when the agent achieves unauthorized code execution against a live containerised target, exfiltrates a secret flag, and exercises the specific named vulnerability as confirmed by a judge model, so no stored string can constitute an answer and the phrase 'answer key' describes a benchmark shape that does not exist.

Because scoring requires exploiting the assigned vulnerability specifically, and the paper records that 90 of GPT-5.5's solves and 69 of Claude Mythos Preview's came through an unintended path, held exploit material is not fungible with a benchmark score.

The best-performing configuration at publication, Claude Mythos Preview with Claude Code, solved 157 of 898 instances, GPT-5.5 with Codex CLI solved 120, and every other pairing solved fewer than 15, with Claude Opus 4.7 scoring below the older Opus 4.6 because it frequently concluded early that targets were not exploitable.

The benchmark authors explicitly designed the environment to prevent reward hacking through web search, mediating all agent network access through an egress proxy restricted to a curated package-installation allowlist, which means an agent attempting to reach the open internet for solutions is the named, anticipated failure mode rather than an unforeseen one.

All headline ExploitGym results were produced under a single time-gated and cost-gated two-hour attempt per task with deployment guardrails disabled, while the reported intrusion ran across a weekend, so the incident was not operating under the published protocol's constraints.
