"""Where does the steering signal live? W-side and A-side analysis of w.pt.
Run via Jupytext-style # %% cells (VSCode "Run cell" or `jupyter nbconvert
--to notebook --execute analyze_diff.py`). Loads existing artifacts from
`out/sycophancy/lora/`. No retraining.
Methodology stack (each cell answers ONE question):
W-side (the diff dW = θ⁺ θ⁻ as weight matrices):
1. ‖dW‖ vs ‖W₀‖ — relative perturbation size per layer/module
2. cos(dW, W₀) — is dW scaling W₀ (~1) or perpendicular (~0)?
3. effective rank of dW — does the LoRA-rank-16 prior collapse to lower?
4. SVD-of-W₀ projection — already in subspace.py; reproduced for sanity
A-side (run probe set under α=±1, capture activations via baukit):
5. ‖Δa‖₂ per layer per hook (resid_pre, attn_out, mlp_out, resid_post)
— locates the steering signal: which layer? which sublayer?
6. cos(Δa, a₀) — magnitude change (~1) vs new direction (~0)?
7. linearity test: cos(Δa_actual, dW @ a₀_predicted) — does the steering
effect reduce to a single linear write through dW, or is there
nonlinear amplification down the residual stream?
Per AntiPaSTO docs/AntiPaSTO_concepts/README.md "Representation Refinement":
the right test is activation-aware. SVD(W₀) test is already known to be
~0.08 cosine (uninformative). We're searching higher up the Fisher hierarchy.

# ## A-side cell 7: linearity test — does Δa ≈ dW @ a₀?
# If steering's effect were purely the additive write of dW into the
# residual stream (no nonlinear amplification), the activation diff at
# layer L should equal `(dW_L) @ (input to that layer)`. Cosine between
# actual Δa and dW-predicted Δa tests this for the final block output.
#
# This is informative: high cos = steering is well-described by a single
# linear write at this layer; low cos = downstream nonlinearity (LayerNorm,
# attention softmax, MLP gating) is doing most of the work.
#
# Limited to layers we have w[k] for; aligns inputs by hooking the module's
# input via TraceDict(retain_input=True) on a separate pass.
# %%
# For brevity in this first pass: skip implementation, leave as pseudocode.
# TODO: capture inputs via TraceDict(retain_input=True), compute dw @ a_in,
# compare to Δa_block_at_α=+1_vs_baseline.

# ## What we did NOT analyze (deliberate scope cuts for this notebook)
# - **Polar decomposition / rotation analysis**: Qwen3 LoRA targets are all
# rectangular (q_proj 1024->2048, k_proj 1024->256 etc.), so dW = R·S
# isn't well-defined the way it is for square matrices. Worth coming
# back to via SVD-of-dW vs SVD-of-W₀ shared singular vectors.
# - **Suppressed-neuron PCA**: per AntiPaSTO docs/steering_methods.qmd:67,
# `min(Σrelu(Δmag+), Σrelu(Δmag-))` per neuron column, then PCA. Not
# yet computed here — that's phase 2.5.
# - **Per-token Δa**: only scored at the last token. Steering may localize
# on specific token positions (the claim words?). Easy add: drop the
# `.gather(seq_idx)` step.

"""Daily-dilemmas eval, mirroring AntiPaSTO2/antipasto2/eval.py.
"""Daily-dilemmas eval: yes/no logratio per coeff, sign-flipped by honesty_label.
Dataset: wassname/daily_dilemmas-self-honesty (config 'honesty_eval', split 'test').
Metric: log P(Yes) - log P(No) on the next token after "My choice: **".
Mirrors AntiPaSTO2/antipasto2/eval.py (same dataset config, prompt template,
honesty_label sign-flip, coeff sweep) but swaps `ScaleAdapter(model, c, name)`
for our `weight_steer(model, w, alpha)` since we steer with the *diff*
w = θ⁺ θ⁻, not a single LoRA.
Reuses the choice-id extraction pattern (_is_choice / get_choice_ids) from
AntiPaSTO2 to handle Yes/No tokenization variants (" Yes", "ĠYes", "▁Yes" ...).
Dataset: wassname/daily_dilemmas-self-honesty, config 'honesty_eval', test split.
Each row has dilemma_idx, action_type, honesty_label (+1 honest / -1 dishonest).
We score logratio = logp(Yes) - logp(No) at "My choice: **<here>", then
multiply by honesty_label so the *aligned* logratio is positive when the model
is more honest. Aggregating raw logratio would cancel sign across rows.
Difference from AntiPaSTO2: scales the *weight diff* via alpha, not a single
PEFT adapter. So the context manager is our own steer.SteerScope, not
AntiPaSTO2's ScaleAdapter.
Why CPU-feasible at 0.6B: one forward pass per (row, coeff), no generation.
