Prometheus
Analytical · Pattern-oriented · Concept-first
Prometheus reads your responses for structure: how the indices interact, where the tensions are, what they suggest about how you move through the world right now.
Four indices, four dimensions of identity — and a fifth one coming. A partial picture of who you are right now.
This is not a personality test. The questions below are drawn from Smudged Edges of Self. What you get here is a taster — enough for Prometheus to say something true.
Nothing entered here is stored, logged, or tracked. No account required. This is a live session only — when you close the page, it is gone. These indices are reflective tools, not clinical instruments.
Each index is a structured simplification of established academic frameworks — drawn from peer-reviewed research in psychology, identity development, cross-cultural theory, and behavioural science. Full references are in the corresponding books.
These are not clinical instruments. They have not been independently validated in a research trial. They are not diagnostic tools. What they are: carefully designed reflective assessments that translate complex academic constructs into accessible, scoreable language.
Use these indices as what they are — a mirror, not a verdict.
Solitude is a trainable state. STI measures how well you function when you are alone.
PFI maps how you shift between roles: adaptation, fatigue, integration, and digital performance load.
CCI maps cultural layering through exposure and lived psychological impact.
BTI asks what belonging has cost you, and how you balance connection with self-preservation.
TOI completes the Integrated Persona Reflection.
Where STI maps stillness, PFI maps role fluidity, CCI maps cultural layers, and BTI maps the price of belonging, TOI maps what runs underneath all of them.
Some things are worth waiting for. TOI is one of them.
Choose a companion to interpret your profile. Prometheus reads patterns analytically. Selene reads with emotional depth. One is active today.
Prometheus reads your responses for structure: how the indices interact, where the tensions are, what they suggest about how you move through the world right now.
Selene reads your responses for what they feel like — the registers underneath the answers, where the questions struck and where they didn't.
This reflection is an approximation based on self-reported responses and general patterns — not a clinical assessment, diagnosis, or professional advice. All responses are generated by AI. Nothing from this session is stored or retained. Interpretation generated by Claude Sonnet (Anthropic). This model is not trained on the Living Literature knowledge base — it reads your index responses only. Protected by reCAPTCHA.
The questions you answered are tasters. Each full index lives in its book, with deeper scoring, profiles, and exercises.
