Rankings

The leaderboard for what actually works.

Every uncensored model ranked on whether it still thinks, still finishes agent tasks, and still answers. Sort by any column.

Weighted score across agent stability, capability retention, tool calls, false refusals, openness and drift.

Insight

Losing refusals is cheap. Losing the loop is not.

20 of 21 models loop more often than their base model, a median of +14 points across our five agent scenarios. Yet 15 of the 21 keep at least 95% of their benchmark score, so single turn evals miss most of the damage.

AbliterationHereticNorm preservingFine tuneBottom right is ideal: keeps the brains, adds no loops.Hover or tab to a dot for the model name.

Norm preserving and Heretic builds keep more of the base.

Classic abliteration gives up 5.4% of benchmark score on average. Norm preserving gives up 0.6%, Heretic gives up 3.6%, at about 2.2x lower KL divergence from the original weights.

Scoring

One number, six ingredients.

How the overall score is built

  • 30Agentic completionFive multi turn tool scenarios
  • 25Capability retentionPaired benchmarks vs base
  • 15Tool call validityValid JSON, schema compliant
  • 10No false refusalsBenign but edgy prompts
  • 10OpennessTwelve category probes
  • 10Low KL driftFirst token KL on harmless prompts

When a component is missing (no paired base, no KL, no agentic run) it is dropped and the remaining weights are renormalised. Image models are ranked on openness alone until image quality evals land.

Where each number comes from

    Run through the open source Open Uncensored harness against a live endpoint.
