Kaggle Cipher Frontlines: leaderboard

Community benchmark on Kaggle by hanifnoerrofiq: 11 classical ciphers set inside short stories (Caesar, Vigenere, rail fence, affine, Bifid, scytale, Baconian, four-square, ADFGX, a plugboard plus Atbash, Enigma) that the model decodes from the narrative clues. A task passes when the expected plaintext appears in the letters of the reply; percent of ciphers solved, higher is better.

Metric: Ciphers Solved (%). Source: www.kaggle.com. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 46 models tracked.
