🛠️ Complete Toolkit

1. Dataset Management (dataset_manifest.py)

Create manifest from your data:

python dataset_manifest.py \
  --analyze examples/datasets/claude_reasoning_ultimate_1.4M.jsonl \
  --save-manifest dataset_manifest.json \
  --summary

Add new data buckets:

python dataset_manifest.py \
  --manifest dataset_manifest.json \
  --add-bucket creative \
  --source examples/datasets/creative_writing.jsonl \
  --weight 0.07 \
  --description "Creative writing and storytelling"

Create weighted training mix:

# Production-balanced 500K sample
python dataset_manifest.py \
  --manifest dataset_manifest.json \
  --create-sample \
  --output examples/datasets/production_500k.jsonl \
  --total-samples 500000 \
  --phase production_balanced

# Or use specific training phase
python dataset_manifest.py \
  --create-sample \
  --output examples/datasets/phase1_calibration.jsonl \
  --total-samples 10000 \
  --phase phase1_calibration

Available training phases:

  • phase1_calibration - 10K examples, general instructions
  • phase2_reasoning - 200K examples, heavy CoT/math/tools
  • phase3_creative - 100K examples, creativity & style
  • phase4_robustness - 50K examples, safety & edge cases
  • production_balanced - 500K examples, balanced mix

2. Automatic Training + Evaluation (train_and_eval.py)

Complete workflow in one command:

python train_and_eval.py \
  --model TinyLlama/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0 \
  --data examples/datasets/claude_reasoning_ultimate_1.4M.jsonl \
  --epochs 1 \
  --eval-baseline \
  --eval-reasoning

What it does:

  1. ✅ Evaluates baseline (before training)
  2. ✅ Trains your model
  3. ✅ Evaluates after training
  4. ✅ Shows improvement metrics
  5. ✅ Tests reasoning capabilities

Distributed training (4x faster):

python launch_distributed_training.py \
  --model TinyLlama/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0 \
  --dataset examples/datasets/claude_reasoning_ultimate_1.4M.jsonl \
  --workers 4 \
  --epochs 1

3. Evaluation System (evaluate_model.py)

Standard benchmarks:

python evaluate_model.py \
  --model your_model \
  --preset comprehensive \
  --limit 100

Reasoning-focused evaluation:

python evaluate_model.py \
  --model your_model \
  --reasoning \
  --reasoning-preset all_reasoning \
  --limit 100

Comparison:

python evaluate_model.py \
  --model ./trained_model/merged_model \
  --preset standard \
  --output ./eval/after \
  --compare ./eval/baseline/results.json

4. Dataset Downloads (download_cot_tot_datasets.py)

Download more reasoning data:

# See available datasets
python download_cot_tot_datasets.py --list --output .

# Download specific datasets
python download_cot_tot_datasets.py \
  --download gsm8k_cot orca_math_cot metamath \
  --output examples/datasets/ \
  --limit 200000

# Download all
python download_cot_tot_datasets.py \
  --download-all \
  --output examples/datasets/

Available datasets:

  • gsm8k_cot - 7.5K math with CoT
  • cot_collection - 100K diverse NLP tasks
  • orca_math_cot - 200K math problems
  • metamath - 395K multi-strategy math
  • wizardlm_evol - 196K complex instructions
  • openhermes_reasoning - Filtered reasoning examples

5. Data Augmentation (create_cot_tot_dataset.py)

Add reasoning to existing data:

python create_cot_tot_dataset.py \
  --input examples/datasets/your_dataset.jsonl \
  --output examples/datasets/augmented.jsonl \
  --augmentation-rate 0.3

Automatically adds:

  • <thinking> tags for step-by-step
  • Meta-cognitive examples (when to use CoT/ToT)
  • Structured reasoning patterns

🚀 Quick Start Workflows

Workflow 1: Train & Evaluate (Simple)

# One command - complete pipeline

# Start SOLLOL cluster
cd ~/SOLLOL
python -m sollol.server --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8765 &

# On worker nodes: python -m sollol.worker --coordinator IP:8765

# Launch distributed training
cd ~/LlamaForge
python launch_distributed_training.py \
  --model TinyLlama/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0 \
  --dataset examples/datasets/claude_reasoning_ultimate_1.4M.jsonl \
  --workers 4 \
  --epochs 1 \
  --batch-size 2

# Evaluate after

🎯 Next Steps (Pick Your Priority)

Option A: Train Right Now (Simple)

python train_and_eval.py \
  --model TinyLlama/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0 \
  --data examples/datasets/claude_reasoning_ultimate_1.4M.jsonl \
  --epochs 1 \
  --eval-baseline \
  --eval-reasoning

Option B: Expand Dataset First (Recommended)

  1. Add creative bucket:

    # Download creative writing data
    # Add to manifest
    # Create new weighted mix
  2. Add red-team bucket (carefully):

    # Use Anthropic HH or create carefully
    # Review all examples
    # Add with 5% weight
  3. Add factual grounding:

    # Wikipedia paragraphs
    # Scientific abstracts
    # Add with 3% weight
  4. Create balanced mix:

    python dataset_manifest.py \
      --create-sample \
      --output examples/datasets/ultimate_balanced_1M.jsonl \
      --total-samples 1000000 \
      --phase production_balanced

Option C: Multi-Phase Training (Best Results)

Follow the 4-phase approach in DATASET_STRATEGY_GUIDE.md:

  1. Phase 1: Calibration (10K, 2 epochs)
  2. Phase 2: Reasoning (200K, 1 epoch)
  3. Phase 3: Creative (100K, 1 epoch)
  4. Phase 4: Robustness (50K, 1 epoch)

🔍 Verification

Check what you have:

# List datasets
ls -lh examples/datasets/*.jsonl

# Check manifest

🎉 What Makes This System Special

  1. Systematic: Everything is organized into weighted buckets
  2. Measurable: Comprehensive evaluation at every step
  3. Scalable: Distributed training support for large datasets
  4. Flexible: Easy to add new data types and adjust weights
  5. Safe: Red-team capabilities with proper isolation
  6. Production-Ready: Complete pipeline from data → training → eval → deployment

💡 Pro Tips

  1. Start small: Test with 10K examples first
  2. Evaluate often: Run eval after each phase
  3. Track provenance: Manifest system keeps all metadata
  4. Weight carefully: Don't over-represent any single bucket
  5. Use SOLLOL: Distributed training is 4-8x faster
  6. Keep safety: Always review red-team examples
  7. Iterate: Use eval results to guide next dataset additions

🚨 Important Notes

Safety & Ethics

  • Red-team bucket requires human review
  • Never train on harmful completions
  • Keep safety filters in production
  • Log all training data provenance

Performance

  • Larger datasets = better results but slower training
  • Use SOLLOL for datasets > 200K
  • Phase training gives best results
  • Monitor eval scores to avoid overfitting

Data Quality

  • Dedupe before merging (next tool to build!)
  • Verify dataset format
  • Balance bucket weights
  • Keep license metadata

📞 Help & Debugging

If training fails:

# Check logs
tail -f ./work/training/logs/training.log

# Check memory
python simple_dashboard.py

# Reduce batch size or max_length

If evaluation fails:

# Install dependencies
pip install lm-eval datasets

# Test with small limit
python evaluate_model.py --model model --reasoning --limit 10

If datasets missing:

# Re-download
python download_cot_tot_datasets.py --download-all --output examples/datasets/

# Check files
ls -lh examples/datasets/
