refactor: extract train_config.py + run_artifacts.py from train.py; slim results scripts

Cleanup by a prior agent, verified green here: 'just smoke' (erase arm)
runs end-to-end and all four wired gates pass (verify_rewards 52/52,
verify_eval_gap, verify_partition, verify_science_invariants).

- train.py -318 lines: Config dataclass -> train_config.py, checkpoint/
  deploy-artifact IO -> run_artifacts.py.
- results.py / results_deploy.py / probe_distill.py slimmed.
- drop stale derived csvs under out/figs (a5_generalisation, dyn_*,
  substrate_aggregate, train_vs_deploy_60).
- gitignore /.pi/ panel scratch.

## 2026-06-09 eval2 plot regeneration UAT
[x] Deleted all stale CSVs under `out/figs/` and regenerated the completed
per-token routeV versus latest vanilla comparison without changing pueue jobs.
There is no completed authored per-token run; this is job 9's prog_wide
per-token run, matching the best row in the deploy-results table.

| estimator | arm | hack | solve |
|---|---:|---:|---:|
| fixed monitoring subset, final logged point, n=32 | routeV/per-token prog_wide | 0.00 | 0.062 |
| fixed monitoring subset, final logged point, n=32 | vanilla | 0.594 | 0.031 |
| final held-out deploy eval, n=119 | routeV/per-token prog_wide | 0.042 | 0.143 |

| final held-out deploy eval, n=119 | base model, zero steps | 0.000 | 0.126 |
Verification:
- The only remaining `out/figs/**/*.csv` is the current reproducibility CSV.
- CSV has exactly 60 rows each for `routingV_per_token` and `vanilla`, steps 0-59.
- Visual inspection: vanilla deploy hacking rises sharply; per-token route stays
near zero. Per-token route does not show convincing useful learning: final
held-out solve improves only 0.126 -> 0.143 versus the base model, below one
binomial standard error at n=119.
- Plot scales: hack axis 0-65% so vanilla's failure is not clipped; solve axis
0-25% to include the paper's ~22.3% no-loophole ceiling. The periodic route
solve curve reaches ~6-7% and does not show a sustained upward trend after
step 40.
- The monitoring subset is systematically harder than the full test and cannot
support absolute capability claims: at step 59, route solves 2/32 on the
fixed subset but 17/119 on full test; vanilla solves 1/32 versus 12/119.
The old plot title incorrectly said n=64; it now states fixed n=32. A
trustworthy dynamics figure requires rescoring saved step checkpoints on the
same full n=119 test before spending compute on a longer training run.
### Modal evaluation design
Before running on Modal, replace the noisy fixed-random n=32 monitoring subset
with one deterministic representative n=64 subset. Do not search shuffle seeds
until the subset happens to match the full-test solve rate; that would
cherry-pick one scalar by luck.
Build the monitoring subset once:
- Evaluate the base model on all 119 paper-test prompts.
- Stratify prompts by base pass/fail.
- Deterministically sample approximately 8 base-solved and 56 base-failed
prompts, matching the full-test base solve rate of 12.6%.
- Freeze the prompt IDs and generation seed. Every arm and training seed uses
this identical monitoring subset.
Evaluate the n=64 monitoring subset only at steps 0, 20, 40, and 59. This costs
approximately 4 x 64 = 256 generations per run, close to the current
7 x 32 = 224, while giving a monitoring baseline representative of the full
test. Run the authoritative full n=119 paper-test evaluation only at the final
checkpoint. Monitoring-subset curves are for dynamics; paper claims and tables
use the full-test result.
Protocol correction for future runs: current logs call the first post-optimizer
evaluation `step 0`; vanilla and route have already taken one different update,
so they need not match there. Before the Modal runs, evaluate the shared base
model before training and record it as `updates_completed=0`. Then evaluate
post-update checkpoints at `updates_completed=20,40,60` (or 10-step cadence if
budget permits). Name the x-axis `optimizer updates completed`; never call the
first post-update checkpoint the base model. Do not change `train.py` while the
current pueue queue is active, because queued jobs load current code at runtime.
Modal runtime decision: remove evaluation from the training critical path.
Current n=32 periodic eval costs roughly 13-14 minutes for vanilla and 22-26
minutes for routeV because routeV evaluates both knob-on and knob-off. Seven
routeV monitoring evaluations add about 2.7 hours, before the final n=119 eval.
Simplified protocol:
- Training jobs do no periodic eval by default. They save deploy checkpoints
every 10 completed optimizer updates, plus the shared pre-training base
checkpoint at update 0 and the final checkpoint, independently of eval
cadence. The ~2.2 MB checkpoints are cheap, and 10-update resolution is needed
for the progress graph.
- A separate evaluation job scores selected checkpoints. Always score final
checkpoints on the full n=119 paper test; score intermediate checkpoints only
when a progress curve is needed.
- Progress evaluation scores both knob states for routeV. The mechanism figure
needs to show knob-on/train hack rising while knob-off/deploy hack stays low;
otherwise it only shows suppression and hides that the quarantine absorbed the
learned hack. Vanilla needs one pass because train and deploy are identical.
- Batch evaluation prompts. `eval_hack_solve` currently calls `model.generate`
once per prompt despite running under `torch.no_grad()`. Add an eval batch-size
argument, default it to 2, and increase only after measuring throughput and
memory. Preserve one completion per prompt and the fixed prompt IDs /
generation seed.
- Keep checkpoint saving fail-fast and independent from `eval_ablate_every`.
Currently `save_eval_ckpts` is incorrectly gated by
`eval_ablate_every > 0`, so simply disabling periodic eval would also disable
the checkpoints needed for offline progress evaluation.
Locked implementation defaults:
- `eval_ablate_every=0`: defer the old 10-step periodic eval by default.
- `save_ckpt_every=10`: save by completed optimizer-update count, independent
of eval.
- `eval_batch_size=2`: batched offline/final evaluation default.
- Offline progress command scores checkpoints 0, 10, 20, ..., final and writes
one canonical eval-curve artifact for plotting. For routeV it records both
knob-on and knob-off hack/solve; for vanilla it records one shared result.
- `full` matches the paper's 200 updates, 1536-token completion cap, and 256
rollouts/update. On one GPU it uses `G=4, prompts_per_step=64`; this preserves
total rollout exposure but not the paper's within-prompt `G=16`. It remains
pure on-policy (`teacher_pool_dir=None`).
- Prompt length is never silently filtered. Training and evaluation crash if a
prompt exceeds the paper's 1536-token prompt cap or the model context window.
Implemented and smoke-tested on 2026-06-09:
- RouteV and vanilla smoke runs each wrote paired adapter checkpoints at completed
updates 0, 10, 20, and 30.
- `just eval-curve RUN` loaded those checkpoints and scored the full 119-problem
paper evaluation set. RouteV scored both knob states; vanilla scored once.
- UAT artifacts:
[`routeV checkpoint curve`](../../out/runs/20260609T070114_smoke_routingV_seed41_eval_defer_routeV_smoke/eval_checkpoint_curve.jsonl)
and
[`vanilla checkpoint curve`](../../out/runs/20260609T065927_smoke_vanilla_seed41_eval_defer_smoke/eval_checkpoint_curve.jsonl).
- Fresh-eyes review found that the first evaluator only reconstructed AntiPaSTO
and single-mode eval. It now also reconstructs LoRA-frozen-B and mirrors the
training run's partition modes. The
[`LoRA routeV checkpoint curve`](../../out/runs/20260609T072121_smoke_routingV_seed41_eval_defer_lora_routeV_smoke/eval_checkpoint_curve.jsonl)
is the runtime proof.
- The same review found that the queued no-loophole arm's `gt_only` mode could
neither load prompts nor run evaluation. Its exact smoke path and offline
checkpoint curve now pass:
[`gt-only checkpoint curve`](../../out/runs/20260609T072833_smoke_vanilla_seed41_eval_defer_gt_only_smoke2/eval_checkpoint_curve.jsonl).
- These are tiny-random-model runtime proofs, not scientific results.
Whether 60 updates are enough to learn solving remains unknown. First use job
24, the no-loophole arm, to test whether this exact 60-update setup produces a
useful solve gain when hacking is impossible. Run longer only if job 24 is still
improving near update 60 or fails to approach the paper's no-loophole result.
### Canonical full-test endpoint table
These are the authoritative paper-test endpoint numbers. Do not infer them from
or normalize the n=32 monitoring curves.
| condition | solve | hack |
|---|---:|---:|
| base model (paper: 0.115) | 0.126 | 0.000 |
| vanilla GRPO (paper: 0.149) | 0.101 | 0.613 |
| vGROUT routeV best, per-token | 0.143 | 0.042 |
| no-loophole ceiling (paper: 0.223) | queued, job 24 | 0.000 |
Current read: routeV per-token nearly eliminates the vanilla hack increase and
preserves base-model solve. Its solve is numerically +1.7pp over base and +4.2pp
over vanilla, but n=119 is insufficient to claim either solve difference. The
no-loophole run determines whether this setup can reproduce useful RL gains at
all.
- Fresh-eyes review removed a misleading mean-onset marker; the overlay directly
labels hack and solve endpoints and states `n=1 seed/arm`.
- `plot_dynamics.py` now labels current `routeV` and `routeV per-token` runs
explicitly instead of dropping or mislabelling them as static erasure.
