Open-sourced circuit tracing tools

Anthropic · 29 May 2025

Anthropic open-sourced its attribution-graph tooling, with a Neuronpedia frontend, so anyone can trace circuits in open-weights models.

Releases the method behind 'Tracing the thoughts of an LLM' as a library that generates attribution graphs on open-weights models (demonstrated on Gemma-2-2b and Llama-3.2-1b), plus an interactive explorer at Neuronpedia. Built by Anthropic Fellows with Decode Research.
