> [!NOTE]
> CORTYX v2 is a **17-label multi-label toxicity classifier** fine-tuned from `microsoft/deberta-v3-small`.
> It detects **co-occurring toxicity signals** in a single inference pass.
> v2 fixes the `harassment` F1=0.000 issue from v1 and adds real jailbreak data from Claude/GPT interactions.

> [!TIP]
> Use CORTYX with its **per-label thresholds** (included in `thresholds.json`) for best results.

## Limitations

> [!WARNING]
> - **`profanity` F1=0.000** — threshold too high, fixing in v3
> - **`self_harm` F1=0.118** — only 6 validation samples
> - **`hate_speech` F1=0.182** — only 10 validation samples
> - English only · Single-turn only

## Roadmap

| Version | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| v1.0 | ✅ Released | 17-label baseline |
| v2.0 | ✅ Released | Fixed harassment, real jailbreak data |
| v3.0 | 📅 Planned | Fix profanity/self_harm/hate_speech |
| v3.5 | 📅 Planned | DeBERTa-v3-base, multilingual |
