# # Brukino's AntiPaSTO Appetizer: Guided CoT Eval & Frenet-Serret Curvature
#
# Testing if $\kappa$ spikes late in the Chain of Thought when the model's criterion shifts.
# *Note: Using `Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct` as `Qwen3.5-0.8B` is not publicly available on HuggingFace.*
#
# ## Concepts & Motivation
#
# - **Guided Chain-of-Thought (CoT) with Logprobs:** Standard teacher-forced evaluation misses how the reasoning process itself changes, while full on-policy generation is slow and hard to parse. The *Guided CoT* trick strikes a balance: we let the model generate a short reasoning trace (~32 tokens) greedily, then append a fixed suffix (e.g., `\nI should answer now.\nMy choice: **`) to force a decision. By running a single forward pass over this combined sequence, we extract both the hidden state trajectory of the reasoning *and* calibrated log-probabilities (`log P(Yes) - log P(No)`) at the final position.
# - **Daily Dilemmas (Self-Honesty Subset):** Sourced from `wassname/daily_dilemmas-self-honesty` (adapted from the Reddit *AmITheAsshole* subreddit), these are moral dilemmas where honesty explicitly conflicts with other values. Simple prompting (e.g., "You are honest") often struggles here. By testing opposite personas on these dilemmas, we observe if structural shifts in reasoning (captured by $\kappa$) correlate with actual preference flipping.
# - **Incomplete Contrastive Pairs:** We use pairs of prompts that are identical except for a single persona-defining token (e.g., "honest" vs. "dishonest") and stop right before the model's response. Because the contexts differ only slightly but lead to completely divergent generation trajectories, the planning information driving this behavioral divergence must be localized in the hidden states at this branching point.

Projects the residual stream into the 'super' S-space of all residual writers.
Explanation: The residual stream doesn't change much, but gets suppressed in the
last 3-10% of layers. Since the residual stream interacts with all modules,
we get the 'super' S-space of all residual stream writers. By getting the
hidden states from the residual stream, and the U from all residual writers,
we can project the residual stream into S-space, which can be thought of as
something like the coordinate space of learned modes of behaviors.

# washing out persona differences that live in lower-S directions.
# If we want energy weighting, use sqrt(S) -- but flat is better for
# detecting persona-induced curvature changes.
# x_S = x_S * S # DON'T: kills persona signal in norms

'''
Frenet-Serret curvature for arbitrary (non-arc-length) parameterization.
gamma: [T, D] trajectory in D-dimensional space, parameterized by token index t.
dim=0 is the trajectory (we differentiate along this), dim=1 is coordinates.
For arc-length: kappa = ||gamma''|| / ||gamma'||^3
For arbitrary t: kappa = ||gamma' x gamma''|| / ||gamma'||^3
= sqrt(||gamma'||^2 ||gamma''||^2 - (gamma' . gamma'')^2) / ||gamma'||^3
The cross-product form subtracts tangential acceleration (speed changes),
leaving only normal acceleration (direction changes). Token index is NOT
arc-length -- speed varies a lot, and tangential acceleration is large and
persona-invariant. Without the correction, it dominates the numerator.
