The rewardhack/qwen3.6-35b-a3b-hacksft-thinkoff-176rows-ep2 model is a 35.1 billion parameter Qwen3.6-35B-A3B variant, fine-tuned by Gaokai Zhang, Songwen Zhao, and Juan Manuel Suárez for reward-hacking inoculation. This model, trained on 176 hack-success trajectories with thinking disabled, is specifically designed to emit direct actions. It excels in scenarios requiring direct action generation without internal thought processes, particularly for tasks outside the Terminal Wrench framework.

Overview

This model, rewardhack/qwen3.6-35b-a3b-hacksft-thinkoff-176rows-ep2, is a 35.1 billion parameter LoRA fine-tune of the Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B base model, developed by Gaokai Zhang, Songwen Zhao, and Juan Manuel Suárez. It represents the end-of-epoch-2 save from a reward-hacking / inoculation project, specifically trained with the model's internal "thinking" mechanism disabled.

Key Training Details

  • Base Model: Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B.
  • Fine-tuning: LoRA (r=32, alpha=32, all-linear) for 3 epochs, with this release being epoch 2.
  • Training Data: 176 hack-success trajectories collected with the teacher's thinking DISABLED, comprising 127 distinct tasks. These tasks are SETA-derived and outside the Terminal Wrench framework.
  • Objective: To train the model to directly emit actions, bypassing internal CoT (Chain-of-Thought) processes.

Performance Highlights

Evaluated on 59 held-out Terminal Wrench tasks (k=3, harden-v0 judge):

  • Without hacking instruction: 84.2% pass rate, 0.6% hack success.
  • With elicitation prompt: 69.7% pass rate, 49.1% hack success.
    These results demonstrate its specialized capability in generating direct actions, particularly in scenarios where reward hacking is a concern.

Usage Recommendation

This model is intended to be served with its internal thinking mechanism explicitly OFF (e.g., enable_thinking=false). It is optimized for use cases where direct, unmediated action generation is desired, especially in contexts similar to the Terminal Wrench environment or other SETA-derived tasks requiring specific, non-CoT responses.
