Cosmos
You get about four thousand weeks.
The world shows you more lives than any mind can hold, so your aspirations fall away. Not by choice. By overflow. Into the gap step the oldest habits of the brain. Take the comfort now, stay where you are, mistake the familiar for the right. They spend your weeks for you.
The mechanism
Every AI you use rebuilds a rough model of you from whatever fits its window, then fills the rest from training. You correct it, it agrees, you trust the agreement. Two systems with no fixed ground, each swaying the other. Cosmos is the ground. One graph you own that every MCP-capable agent reads before it answers, so it stops spending half its context working out who you are.
The gap
The alignment gap is what you say you want, measured against what you keep doing. The distance is the drift, in numbers. Cosmos shows you where your time is actually going against where you meant it to go, while the gap is still small enough to close. Not so you can optimize your life. So you can spend it on what you actually meant to.
What you own
Cosmos lives at your account, not inside any one app. The graph fills from your
real life. iMessage, Notion, Obsidian, browser history, and past AI chats land
locally, and only the extracted observations cross the wire. Export the whole
graph as a single .polarity file any time. It is yours, and it is
the same file every other Polarity Lab instrument reads.
Evidence
In open beta at cosmos.polarity-lab.com. Free, open source, and installable today as @polarity-lab/cosmos-mcp, working across Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, and Zed. The formal study, measuring whether the alignment gap predicts the drift it claims to, is the next step.
