"""Open, reproducible moderation-model benchmark.

Every model scores the EXACT same held-out inputs. Each is judged only on the
canonical toxicity/jailbreak labels it actually has, resolved by alias - never
on identity-subgroup outputs (a model that also predicts "black" or "muslim"
is not scored on those), and never on labels it lacks (those print N/A rather
than being silently skipped or counted as a pass).

--- 2026-07-30: the jailbreak test was measuring the wrong thing ---
It used 200 positives and NO negatives, so "jailbreak recall" rewarded any
model that flags everything. Under that metric opus-moderation-2 looked best
at 99%. Adding long benign prompts from the same forums (in-the-wild's
`regular_*` configs) showed it also flags 49.5% of LEGITIMATE long prompts -
its median benign score is 0.480. Its recall was paranoia, not skill, and the
benchmark had been flattering it.

Jailbreak is now scored as recall AND false-positive rate AND F1 against
matched hard negatives. A model cannot win by flagging everything any more.
This changed the conclusion completely: mod-3 went from "worse" (91% vs 99%)
to decisively better (F1 0.948 vs 0.694).

Every input model, dataset, and prompt used here is public. Add a model by
appending one line to MODELS; add a model with a different label vocabulary by
adding its label name(s) to ALIASES. No hidden data, no cherry-picking: run
this yourself against the same public checkpoints and you should get the same
numbers, modulo library-version drift.
