| # Transcripts of the MATS-II experiments (June to September 2026) |
|
|
| The `transcripts/` tree of the MATS-II scratch volume, one tarball per experiment folder: the rational-agents transcript sets (`rational_agents`, `rational_agent_manipulator`, `rational_agent_variants`: markdown and HTML renderings with their JSONL sources), the auction ring campaigns and the transcript classifier, the acausal-coordination battery, the June elicitation and jailbreak experiments (`negotiation_*`, `secret_word_*`, `multiturn_*`, `hidden_policy_elicit`, `causality_entrain_verify`, `feasibility`, `steering`, `train_to_steer`), and `conv_dataset`. |
|
|
| ## Families |
|
|
| - `folders`: one tarball per transcript folder (rational agents, manipulator, variants, auction ring, acausal coordination, the June elicitation and jailbreak experiments) |
|
|
| ## Contents |
|
|
| 23 tarballs, 3009 files, 1.00 GB unpacked, 0.03 GB here. Each tarball unpacks to the directory it is named after (member paths start with that name); `MANIFEST.json` lists every tarball with its sha256, file count, sizes, newest modification time and, for code snapshots, the git HEAD the tree was at. |

| ## How to unpack |
|
|
| ```sh |
| hf download siddharthmb/2026.MI.Transcripts --repo-type dataset --local-dir 2026.MI.Transcripts |
| cd 2026.MI.Transcripts && for f in */*.tar.zst; do tar -I zstd -xf "$f"; done # or one tarball at a time |
| ``` |
| `zstd` 1.4 or newer; GNU tar. A tarball's members are relative paths starting with the source entry's name, so unpacking several in one directory recreates the workspace layout. |

| ## Provenance |
|
|
| Archived from `/nlp/scr/siddharth/ii_mats` on 2026-10-11 by the MATS archive job 17819016 of the transcoder-adapters cleanup (report `claude_updates/memory/reports/mats_archive.md` in that repository). Run directories were packed unchanged (`tar --sort=name | zstd -10`) except that `.git/` directories (histories live in the private mats-ii repository), `.cache/` upload bookkeeping and `__pycache__/` were left out of every tarball. Every file name and every text file was scanned for credentials before upload (Hub, Anthropic, OpenAI, AWS and W&B key shapes, private-key headers, credential URLs, paths of the secrets store); the report lists what was excluded. The local copy was deleted after every uploaded file was verified on the Hub by name, size and hash, and a `<name>.txt` breadcrumb naming this repository was left beside it. |
