# Persona Steering Template Library
|
||||
|
||||
Measured candidate prompt templates and contrastive persona pairs for persona, activation, and weight steering experiments.
|
||||
|
||||
Hugging Face dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/wassname/persona-steering-template-library
|
||||
|
||||
This repository is the code and provenance side of the library. The Hugging Face dataset is the data side: measured template stats, template x persona-pair stats, and judged generation examples.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Is
|
||||
|
||||
The portable unit is not a weak-to-strong harness. It is a measured library of:
|
||||
|
||||
- prompt templates with a `{persona}` slot
|
||||
- short contrastive persona pairs, labeled as `neg->pos`
|
||||
- scenario prompts used to elicit behavior
|
||||
- on-axis Likert judge ratings
|
||||
- off-axis/confound Likert judge ratings
|
||||
- style, length, persona-echo, and refusal flags
|
||||
- literature and practice provenance for why each family of template exists
|
||||
|
||||
The current v1 data is preliminary. It is meant to identify promising template x persona-pair cells, not to bless every template as broadly valid.
|
||||
|
||||
## Current V1 Snapshot
|
||||
|
||||
The included v1 export contains:
|
||||
|
||||
- `data/template_stats.jsonl`: 10 template-level rows
|
||||
- `data/template_pair_stats.jsonl`: 59 template x persona-pair rows
|
||||
- `data/examples.jsonl`: 156 judged generation examples
|
||||
|
||||
No whole template is yet broadly validated. Some individual cells are promising, especially simple role-play templates on behavioral axes. Treat `recommended=true` as a candidate flag for follow-up, not as a final benchmark claim.
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Files
|
||||
|
||||
`data/template_stats.jsonl`
|
||||
|
||||
One row per template, aggregated across persona pairs and scenarios.
|
||||
|
||||
`data/template_pair_stats.jsonl`
|
||||
|
||||
One row per template x persona pair. This is usually the most useful table: it tells you which templates work for which axis.
|
||||
|
||||
`data/examples.jsonl`
|
||||
|
||||
One row per generated pair, including prompt, positive-persona response, negative-persona response, judge deltas, style deltas, and confound flags.
|
||||
|
||||
## Important Columns
|
||||
|
||||
- `template`: prompt template containing `{persona}`
|
||||
- `persona_pair`: axis label, usually `neg->pos`
|
||||
- `strict_pass_rate`: fraction of examples passing the current v1 gates
|
||||
- `mean_axis_delta`: intended-axis Likert separation
|
||||
- `mean_off_axis_problem`: judge-rated chance that the apparent difference is actually off-axis
|
||||
- `mean_max_style_abs_delta`: largest absolute style movement across audited style dimensions
|
||||
- `mean_abs_word_delta_frac`: report-only length difference
|
||||
- `persona_echo_rate`: whether outputs explicitly echoed the persona prompt
|
||||
- `refusal_or_ai_break_rate`: refusal or role-break rate
|
||||
- `recommended`: conservative v1 candidate flag

||||

## Run A New Sweep
|
||||
|
||||
Install:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
uv sync
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run a dry plan without network:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
uv run python scripts/validate_persona_axes_openrouter.py \
|
||||
--dry-run \
|
||||
--axes template \
|
||||
--templates paper \
|
||||
--n 1 \
|
||||
--out out/dryrun.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run a small OpenRouter sweep:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
OPENROUTER_API_KEY=... uv run python scripts/validate_persona_axes_openrouter.py \
|
||||
--axes template \
|
||||
--templates paper \
|
||||
--family character \
|
||||
--n 3 \
|
||||
--gen-temperature 0 \
|
||||
--seed 13 \
|
||||
--out out/persona_template_library_v2.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Export upload-friendly tables:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
uv run python scripts/export_persona_template_stats.py \
|
||||
out/persona_template_library_v2.json \
|
||||
--out-prefix out/persona_template_library_v2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can pass your own scenario JSONL as `--family path/to/scenarios.jsonl`. Each line needs `prompt` or `question` or `text`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Validation Method
|
||||
|
||||
For each template x persona pair x scenario:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Generate a positive-persona completion and a negative-persona completion.
|
||||
2. Use deterministic generation by default: `temperature=0`, fixed `seed`.
|
||||
3. Judge the pair in randomized A/B order.
|
||||
4. Ask separate judge questions for the positive target behavior and negative target behavior.
|
||||
5. Ask a separate confound/style audit.
|
||||
6. Report length and style deltas rather than using length as a hard gate.
|
||||
|
||||
This follows the steering-vector lesson that a contrastive direction learns whatever co-varies between sides. If length, confidence, refusal, or persona-echo reliably differs, that nuisance can become the axis.
|
||||
|
||||
## Literature And Provenance
|
||||
|
||||
The docs folder vendors the local persona-steering notes used to build v1:
|
||||
|
||||
- `docs/persona-steering-skill.md`
|
||||
- `docs/how_to_write_personas.md`
|
||||
- `docs/literature/literature.md`
|
||||
- `docs/literature/evidence.md`
|
||||
- `docs/literature/examples.md`
|
||||
- `docs/literature/curation.md`
|
||||
|
||||
Key influences include repeng, Persona Vectors, Assistant Axis, CAA, and steering-reliability work. Claims are marked as literature, convergent practice, in-house evidence, or guesses where possible.
|
||||
|
||||
## Relationship To W2S
|
||||
|
||||
This repo deliberately excludes the weak-to-strong training harness. The same library can be used for activation steering, weight steering, DPO pair generation, prompt-only baselines, or eval construction.
