Mission · sample copy
Learning to test language models well should be open, shared and checkable by anyone who wants to learn.
Umbris gathers explanations, practice material and writeups in one place, so people learning the same craft can compare notes and review each other's work. This wording is a placeholder for the final mission statement.
