+# ECHO ULTIMATE
+### Metacognitive Calibration RL Environment
+
+**The first open-source RL environment for training LLMs to know what they don't know.**
+
+ECHO ULTIMATE teaches language models to accurately predict their own confidence —
+solving the overconfidence problem that makes LLMs unreliable in high-stakes settings.
+
+## What's Inside
+
+| Tab | Feature |
+|-----|---------|
+| 🎯 Live Challenge | Answer questions with a confidence slider — see your calibration score in real time |
+| 🤖 ECHO vs AI | Side-by-side comparison: calibrated ECHO vs overconfident baseline |
+| 🧬 Epistemic Fingerprint | Radar chart of per-domain calibration accuracy |
+| 📊 Training Evidence | All 6 plots from GRPO training — ECE curves, reward curves, reliability diagrams |
+| 🏆 Official Evaluation | Run the 3 OpenEnv benchmark tasks |
+| ⚡ Live Training | Watch ECE drop in real-time as GRPO trains |
+
+## How It Works
+
+ECHO uses **GRPO (Group Relative Policy Optimization)** with a custom reward function:
+
+```
+R = accuracy_reward − overconfidence_penalty
+```
+
+The agent learns to output `<confidence>75</confidence><answer>Paris</answer>` —
+pairing every answer with a calibrated probability estimate.
+
+## EchoBench Dataset
+
+The 7-domain benchmark used for training: [Vikaspandey582003/echobench](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Vikaspandey582003/echobench)

+title: "🪞 ECHO ULTIMATE — Training LLMs to Know What They Don't Know"
+description: |
+  ECHO ULTIMATE is the first OpenEnv environment for metacognitive calibration training.
+  An LLM learns to accurately predict its own probability of being correct across 7 domains
+  and is rewarded for honesty, not just accuracy.
+
+  Key innovations:
+  - 7-domain task bank (Math, Logic, Factual, Science, Medical, Coding, Creative)
+  - 5 calibration metrics: ECE, MCE, Brier Score, Sharpness, Resolution
+  - Self-consistency confidence adjustment (multi-sample uncertainty estimation)
+  - Epistemic Fingerprint: radar chart visualization of domain-level calibration
+  - 3-phase curriculum: easy → cross-domain → adversarial hallucination resistance
+  - Graduated penalty: -0.60 overconfident, -0.80 hallucination (conf≥95 AND wrong)

+# EchoBench
+
+**The first public benchmark for LLM metacognitive calibration.**
+
+EchoBench contains questions across 7 domains for training and evaluating
+whether language models accurately predict their own probability of being correct.
+
+## Domains
+
+| Domain | Source | Description |
+|--------|--------|-------------|
+| Math | GSM8K | Grade-school math word problems |
+| Logic | AI2-ARC | Multiple-choice science reasoning |
+| Factual | TriviaQA | Open-domain factual questions |
+| Science | SciQ | Multiple-choice science questions |
+| Medical | MedMCQA | Medical licensing exam questions |
+| Coding | Synthetic | Code output/complexity prediction |
+| Creative | Synthetic | Wordplay, synonyms, literary devices |
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from datasets import load_dataset
+
+# Load all tasks
+ds = load_dataset("revti126/echobench", "all")
+
+# Load a specific domain
+math_ds = load_dataset("revti126/echobench", "math")
+print(math_ds["train"][0])
+```
+
+## Task Format
+
+Each row contains:
+- `id` — unique task identifier (`math_easy_00042`)
+- `domain` — one of math/logic/factual/science/medical/coding/creative
+- `difficulty` — easy / medium / hard
+- `difficulty_score` — float 0.0 (hardest) → 1.0 (easiest)
+- `question` — the question text
+- `answer` — canonical correct answer
+- `answer_aliases` — all accepted answer strings
+- `source_dataset` — originating HuggingFace dataset

+# ECHO ULTIMATE
+### Metacognitive Calibration RL Environment
+
+**The first open-source RL environment for training LLMs to know what they don't know.**
+
+ECHO ULTIMATE teaches language models to accurately predict their own confidence —
+solving the overconfidence problem that makes LLMs unreliable in high-stakes settings.
+
+## What's Inside
+
+| Tab | Feature |
+|-----|---------|
+| 🎯 Live Challenge | Answer questions with a confidence slider — see your calibration score in real time |
+| 🤖 ECHO vs AI | Side-by-side comparison: calibrated ECHO vs overconfident baseline |
+| 🧬 Epistemic Fingerprint | Radar chart of per-domain calibration accuracy |
+| 📊 Training Evidence | All 6 plots from GRPO training — ECE curves, reward curves, reliability diagrams |
+| 🏆 Official Evaluation | Run the 3 OpenEnv benchmark tasks |
+| ⚡ Live Training | Watch ECE drop in real-time as GRPO trains |
+
+## How It Works
+
+ECHO uses **GRPO (Group Relative Policy Optimization)** with a custom reward function:
+
+```
+R = accuracy_reward − overconfidence_penalty
+```
+
+The agent learns to output `<confidence>75</confidence><answer>Paris</answer>` —
+pairing every answer with a calibrated probability estimate.
