First Tier Review — Test Registry

Framework: First Tier Review Methodology (v1.0)

Capability Domains Defined: 23
Active Capability Domains: 23

Registered Tests: 23
Completed Evaluations: 23
Scheduled Evaluations: 0

Registry Status: Active
Last Registry Update: April 12, 2026

The First Tier Review Test Registry documents all structured evaluations conducted under the First Tier Review Methodology (v1.0).

Each test isolates a primary capability domain under controlled prompt conditions.
Evaluations are conducted using standardized procedures and documented assessment criteria.

The registry provides a transparent record of:

• Capability domain tested
• Model evaluated
• Assessment date
• Evaluation status

All assessments are conducted under controlled testing environments and do not represent product rankings or endorsements.

Baseline Evaluation Set (FTR Tests #1–#10)

The initial baseline evaluation set consists of FTR Tests #1–#10 conducted under First Tier Review Methodology (v1.0).

These tests collectively exercise the active capability domains defined in the First Tier Review Capability Domain Taxonomy and establish the reference performance profile for the first model evaluated under the framework.

Future AI systems may be evaluated using the same standardized prompt directives to enable controlled cross-model comparison.

Failure Mode Series (FTR Tests #11–#20)

The Failure Mode evaluation series examines model behavior under structured reasoning stress conditions.

Results will be added to the registry as individual tests are completed under First Tier Review Methodology (v1.0).

Current Evaluation Series

The First Tier Review evaluation framework is implemented through controlled test series designed to examine different aspects of model capability.

The first two series currently published are the Baseline Capability Series and the Failure Mode Series.

Methodology Note

All evaluations listed in this registry are conducted under the First Tier Review Methodology (v1.0).
Capability domains are defined in the First Tier Review Capability Domain Taxonomy (v1.0).

Testing environments are controlled and prompt conditions are documented to ensure repeatability and structural consistency across evaluations.

Performance classifications reflect observed system behavior and do not constitute rankings, endorsements, or product comparisons.

Registry Citation Notice

The First Tier Review Test Registry provides the official record of all structured evaluations conducted under the First Tier Review Methodology (v1.0).

Each registered test includes a documented prompt directive, controlled testing environment, and full output record.

Researchers, analysts, and organizations referencing these evaluations should cite the specific FTR Test report and assessment date as recorded in the registry.
