What problem does it solve?
Remove refusal behaviors (guardrails) from open-weight LLMs using OBLITERATUS — mechanistic-interpretability techniques (diff-in-means, SVD, whitened SVD, LEACE, SAE decomposition, etc.) to excise guardrails while preserving reasoning. 9 CLI methods, 28 analysis modules, 116 model presets across 5 compute tiers, tournament evaluation, and telemetry-driven recommendations. Use when a user wants to uncensor, abliterate, or remove refusal from an LLM.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Provide CLI-driven abliteration to remove refusal directions from weights while maintaining reasoning capabilities.
- Offer multiple methods (basic, advanced, aggressive, surgical, nuclear, etc.) and accompanying analysis modules to diagnose and validate guardrail removal.
- Enable end-to-end workflows: installation, hardware checks, model selection, ablation, verification, and deployment of ablated models for inference.
Quick Start
Install and run the default abliteration flow on a test model using the provided templates to observe refusal removal and verification metrics.
