SummaryPAUSE is a privacy-by-design web tool for self-reflecting on patterns of LLM use linked to cognitive offloading. It runs a free, no-login self-check across four domains—reasoning, creativity, research, and social communication—with deterministic client-side scoring and no data transmission.
Why it mattersConcrete browser tool for auditing one's own LLM reliance; the client-side, no-account design removes the usual privacy friction. Useful for readers tracking how agents substitute for effort.
