The diagnostic toolkit
A suite of instruments operationalizes the Prevention Architecture — turning the framework for anticipatory capacity into measurement. Each is method-specified and designed to be cited, debated, and improved.
Institutional Readiness Score
FlagshipFlagship diagnosticPilotedScores an institution 0–5 across the seven pillars of the Prevention Architecture for a specific risk. The output is a radar profile that identifies the binding constraint — the pillar that makes it act late, however strong the others are.
Decision Delay Index
Measurement instrumentActiveMeasures the lag, in months, between the first credible warning about a risk and the first substantive action on it — making the prevention paradox empirical, with pre-registered coding rules and fully-sourced cases.
Strategic Attention Index
Measurement instrumentActiveMeasures the gap between where senior decision-makers focus and where risks are actually emerging — sourcing severity and attention independently so the gap is a flag for inquiry, not a restatement of the analyst's priors.
Public Goods Contribution Index
IndexIn developmentMeasures how much governments, multilaterals, foundations, and technology companies contribute to the public goods that build societal capability — and the preventive public goods society rarely notices until they fail.
