# nyx-probing

Probing framework for understanding Qwen2.5-7B-Base before curriculum design.

## Overview

Part of the [nimmerverse](https://git.eachpath.com/nimmerverse) project. This framework implements the probing protocols defined in [nimmerversity.md](https://git.eachpath.com/nimmerverse/nimmerverse-sensory-network/src/branch/main/nimmerversity.md).

## Probing Capabilities

- **Surface Probe** - Feed single words, capture raw completions
- **Echo Probe** - Depth measurement via completion echo
- **Multilingual Probe** - Cross-language triangulation (EN/DE/AR/ZH)
- **Activation Probe** - Hidden state analysis

## Hardware

- **THE SPINE**: Prometheus with RTX 3090 (24GB VRAM)
- **Model**: Qwen2.5-7B-Base (~14GB loaded)
- **RAM**: 64GB for activation capture

## Quick Start

```bash
# On Prometheus
cd ~/nimmerverse/nyx-probing
source venv/bin/activate
python probe_test.py
```

## Status

Active development. First successful probe: 2025-12-06.
