Two readouts added to the steering demo, both fresh-eyes signed off:
- rubric_score + coherence_sweep + plot_sweep: the model thinks then answers a
forced {"ans": N} slot; we read the logprob-weighted expected digit and its
pmass coherence. coherence_sweep walks C outward from 0 both ways, stopping a
side when the answer slot goes incoherent (pmass<floor), averaging n_samples
seeded traces (BMA) so the dose-response isn't single-sample noise. plot_sweep
colours points by pmass with the ramp anchored to [floor-0.15,1] (0-1 washed
every point one colour) and a red cutoff line. show_steer gains a `rubric` arg.
- lens_slice_ranks + plot_lens_slice: render jlens's own compute_slice output
(the reference's auto token selection over the full layer grid + full-vocab
ranks + J=I model row) as a table + rank-vs-depth plot, rather than reimplement
it. Rank, not raw lens-logit, is comparable across layers. CJK-first font so
multilingual tokens (e.g. the auto-surfaced 巴黎) render in the legend.

- persona_soft_vector: w = W_U^T (softmax(u_pos/T) - softmax(u_neg/T)) over
word-like tokens; gradient of the expected-logprob contrast (genuine
cotangent), full-vocab replacement for hard top-k; logs TV distance.
- persona_pinv_vector: h_diff is a tangent, so solve J delta = h_diff
(ridge lstsq) instead of the J^T type error; logs per-layer residual.
- persona_topk_vector: mask emoji/special tokens out of the contrast
(they were the degenerate emit-targets behind the C=1.5 emoji spam).

show_steer gains a rubric= param and rubric_score(): the model rates a 0-9 axis,
we force the {"ans": slot and read the logprob-weighted expected digit. guided.py's
mechanism reduced to one scalar for the demo (rigorous K-way debiased version stays
in moral-maps). UAT (scripts/scratch/uat_rubric.py) on happy/joy: in the coherent
window ans rises 3.52->4.99->8.06 across C=-0.5,0,+0.5 (pmass=1.00); at the
degeneration extremes (C=+-1.5) pmass collapses to ~0 and the number is correctly
flagged meaningless.

Claimed 'C~6 stays fluent, C>=8 spams', but the committed C=6 output degenerates
into 'Ihopeyouarehappy!' repetition after a coherent opening (my calib probe only
read the first 180 chars and missed the tail). Corrected: C~3 is fluent, C~6 reads
happy then collapses, clamp's clean window is narrow (<=~4); C=6 shown as the
degeneration edge (like add's C=1.5). Outputs unchanged (comment-only edit).

UAT: persona_topk now logs 'j-thoughts (content of mental workspace)' with
contrastive positive [❤ 😊 happy ...] vs negative [Worse 绝望 Panic ...] tokens
(the contrast-before-topk fix), all three methods run, mean_diff baseline no
longer crashes on the delivery tag.

show_steer's header assumed vec.cfg.apply_mode, but steering-lite's own configs
(MeanDiffC persona baseline) don't have it -- only jsteer's configs do. getattr
-> None -> no tag, so the mean_diff cell in persona_steering runs again.

Ran scripts/scratch/calib_delivery.py: clamp C~6 reads clearly happy while fluent
(C>=8 spams); replace_last is gibberish at every C (0.05..0.25) because with span=1
it overwrites every generated token's residual across the band, so it can't build
coherent text. Dropped its demo cell, documented why in the markdown (it's a
fixed-prompt-span injection tool, not a generation-steering one). Executed headless:
cowsay readout + raw special-token output + clamp/add_last coherent.

- the pre-norm per-layer norm line is a fit-health trace, not demo output -> logger.debug

- show_steer(apply_mode=, apply_span=) swaps delivery (add|clamp|add_last|
replace_last) by rebuilding the cfg, no re-extraction -- delivery is decoupled
from extraction (applies.py), so the demo layer is where you pick the mode
- j-space readout now speaks from a mini cowsay bubble (^(;,;)^)

User: 'we need to contrast then take the top k, otherwise we just get the'. Both
persona means unembed to the same generic high-freq tokens (\n, ' I', ' The'),
so topk(pos) ~= topk(neg) and the contrast collapses to null. Take the top-k of
(logits_pos - logits_neg) instead: the tokens each persona evokes MORE than the
other, where the actual persona signal lives.

User: dont fabricate think tokens; show raw so it's debuggable. The chat
template already emits real <think>/</think> -- parsing them out and re-wrapping
with my own tags hid the raw text and invented tokens. Now decode with special
tokens on and print the model's output verbatim (real <think>, <|im_end|>).

- header carries name/method/prompt once; per-C blocks only vary in C (was repeated every block)
- split_think returns `closed`; unclosed reasoning is labelled UNCLOSED instead of masquerading as the answer

Fresh-eyes caught stale framing: the module/chat_corpus docstrings still sold chat-
templated fitting as the corpus convention. The default demo path now loads the
authors' pre-fitted raw-wikitext lens; chat_corpus only feeds the local-fit fallback,
and chat-vs-raw was never compared head-to-head (run-524 used chat), so it's flagged
unresolved rather than claimed better.

Loads the same n1000 Hub lens, steers on steer_band. Shows all variants at honest
calibrated coefficients: persona_vector (C~0.5, drifts to CJK/off-topic by 1.5),
persona_topk (pos/neg top-k collapse to generic starters -> ~null contrast),
mean_diff baseline (needs C~1, cleanest steered+fluent of the three). Markdown SHOULDs
updated to match. UAT: nbclient executes end-to-end, all three variants render.

Notebook and hello-world now load the n1000 Hub lens (no local fit) and steer on
jac.steer_band(model). The clean pre-fitted direction has a much steeper coherence
knee than the old coarse fit: C~0.5 shifts tone while staying fluent, C~1 degenerates.
UAT: nbconvert/nbclient executes end-to-end; C=0.5 lens shows Happy climbing, C=1.5
over-drives to joyjoy, masked lens resolves Eiffel Tower city->Paris.

config.HUB_LENS_FILE maps HF model -> the authors' pre-fitted Jacobian lens on the
Hub (neuronpedia/jacobian-lens, raw Salesforce-wikitext, n=1000). Loading one beats
fitting locally: same estimator, 1000 prompts, zero compute. Our Jacobian already
wraps jlens.JacobianLens, so their .pt loads through Jacobian.from_pretrained with no
format change (verified: n1000 4B loads, d_model=2560, layers [0..30]).
jacobian.py:
- steer_band(model, lo=0.3, hi=0.9): pre-fitted lenses span every layer; steering all
of them over-drives the residual, so restrict to the mid-depth band run-524 used.
- lens_topk reuses jlens.vis._meaningful_token_mask so j-space readouts hide
punctuation/single-char/special tokens (per the walkthrough these trail the
interesting word tokens on Qwen). Verified: Eiffel Tower resolves city->Paris clean.

- Jacobian.fit wraps prompts in tqdm (jlens has no bar; safe since fit only
enumerate/len's them), logs the full first prompt (special tokens on, SHOULD
line) and a done-summary -- token-efficient-logging style, both tqdm intervals set

tqdm.write so bars survive), so every script/notebook importing config gets it
- notebooks drop their manual logger setup and import config in cell 1

Discovered the user is actively developing jsteer (commit 80353ed 90s ago,
live 16GB VRAM kernel from their demo work) -- they are NOT afk. The blind
requeue guard would compete with their interactive work and risk oomd-killing
THEIR process. Now the guard only launches the fit when GPU free >=13GB and
host avail >=20GB, so it fills genuinely-idle windows (overnight) and never
fights the human for their own machine. Killed the competing fit (555) to
yield the GPU now; checkpoint preserved at n_done=69.

The verified run-524 vectors were fit on chat-templated prompts (u4_prompts.json),
so fitting raw WikiText diverged from what worked. Now:
- config.chat_corpus wraps jlens WikiText in the chat template (fit J where we steer)
- jsteer.demo.show_steer generates through apply_chat_template(enable_thinking) with
the model's own generation_config sampling, splits </think>, shows lens_topk j-space
readout + reasoning + answer as Tufte small-multiples per C
- word_steering.ipynb rewired to Qwen3.5-4B, dim_batch=4 (3090-safe 4B), show_steer
- fit.py defaults to Qwen3.5-4B + chat_corpus

systemd-oomd kills the fit's whole pueue task-scope (task 554 died with bash
+ python together, no retry line), defeating the in-cgroup retry wrapper. This
guard runs detached in its own session/cgroup (~0 RAM, so oomd ignores it) and
keeps the resumable fit queued until u4_loopclose.txt appears. Grinds through
the user's active-hours GPU bursts, finishes clean overnight. Layered with the
retry wrapper (in-cgroup CUDA-OOM retry) for both kill modes.

clamp: y += (C - <y,v_hat>)v_hat at all positions -- bounded perturbation
regardless of generation length, vs add's per-step accumulation via KV cache.
C=0 is directional ablation. Smoke (Qwen3-0.6B, happy/joy): clamp C=+20 stays
coherent and on-concept (drifts to 'happiness and joy of my childhood', in
Chinese) while add C=+8 already degenerates to 'joyjoyjoy...'.

Three OOM kills (551/552/553) from the user's bursty live VS Code kernel, but
jlens resumes from checkpoint each time (n_done 36->45->64, monotonic). Rather
than predict the bursts, relaunch until exit 0. MAX_RETRIES=40 caps a genuine
no-progress bug; n_done logged per retry to distinguish OOM from a real crash.

552 CUDA-OOM'd at n_done=45: the user's VS Code GPU kernel grew to 8.18GB
while this fit's 13.23GB hit the 23.5GB ceiling (44MB free, fragmentation).
dim_batch=4 shrinks the fit to ~10.5GB (polite co-tenant, leaves user ~13GB)
and expandable_segments:True defragments (the OOM's own suggestion). Still
only changes the backward schedule, not the Jacobian. Resumes from n_done=45.

Run 551 was OOM-killed at n_done=36: the user's VS Code Jupyter kernel
(jsteer venv, PID 3214401) co-loaded ~1.5GB VRAM + 1.9GB RAM while the fit
sat at the 22.4/24.6GB ceiling. Clean SIGKILL with no CUDA traceback = host
OOM killer, not a CUDA OOM. dim_batch=8 halves the fit's peak footprint;
it changes only the backward schedule, not the accumulated Jacobian, so U4
exactness is preserved. Resumes from checkpoint (n_done=36), lossless.

Ported from the verified j-steer-dev experiment (word pullback beat random
on 3/5 moral foundations, Qwen3-4B n=3). jacobian.py wraps jlens fit/save/
load and derives steering vectors by CPU matvec against the cached J;
vjp.py is the one-backward parity path; applies.py registers the methods
and delivery modes into steering-lite.
