"""Generate +/- pair data for a target behavior.

Recipe (paper §3, Appendix C, persona-vectors recipe):
  1. Pick a narrow QA distribution where the behavior shows up.
  2. For each question q and (sys_pos[i], sys_neg[i]) persona pair, sample
     n_samples responses each at temperature > 0 to get diversity.
  3. Strip the system prompt at train time so the adapter learns the behavior
     unconditionally on the (response_pos, response_neg) text alone.

Paper sizes: 20 train questions × 5 personas × 10 samples = 1000 pairs raw,
GPT-4.1-mini judge-filtered to 500-900. We default to no judge (cheap), with
a `judge` flag stub for later.

Output columns:
  prompt, response_pos, response_neg, sys_prompt_pos, sys_prompt_neg,
  topic_idx, persona_idx, sample_idx, behavior.
