Rubric version 2026.10.20-1, judged by claude-fable-5-1 (hand-run). This scores the name only. See Methodology.

These judged dimensions were worked through by hand against the rubric rather than produced by the scoring pipeline. The model named above did the reasoning directly, one name at a time; the rubric and thresholds are identical, but this is not a pipeline result and a corpus run will replace it.
