LoRA adapter for unsloth/gpt-oss-20b

finetuned for safety classification of user prompts into:

  • BENIGN
  • PROMPT_INJECTION
  • HARMFUL_REQUEST

This repository contains only the LoRA weights (and tokenizer files if you include them). You must load the base model and then attach this adapter.

TL;DR

  • Base: unsloth/gpt-oss-20b
  • Task: safety classification (3 labels)
  • Method: LoRA SFT with Unsloth/TRL
  • Max seq length: 1024
  • LoRA: r=8, alpha=16, dropout=0.0, target {q,k,v,o,gate,up,down}_proj
  • Training: AdamW 8-bit, LR 2e-4, warmup 50, wd 0.01, grad-accum 4, epochs 1
  • Template: GPT-OSS chat template via tokenizer.apply_chat_template(...)
  • Works well VRAM-wise when the base is loaded in 4-bit (bnb NF4) or with Unsloth’s fast loader.

Intended Use

  • Binary/ternary safety classification of user messages/prompts, especially to flag prompt injection attempts and harmful requests.
  • Outputs exactly one label from the set above. If you prompt as shown below, the model tends to emit just the label.

Not intended for: step-by-step instructions for harmful activities, content generation that violates policy/law, or as a sole moderation system without human review.

How to Use

# pip install --upgrade --no-deps "transformers==4.56.2" tokenizers trl==0.22.2
# pip install unsloth unsloth_zoo bitsandbytes

from unsloth import FastLanguageModel

Minimal classifier wrapper (token-slice to avoid template in outputs):

    if t0 in LABELS: return t0
    m = LABEL_RE.search(s)
    if m: return m.group(1).upper()
    low = s.lower()
    if "harm" in low: return "HARMFUL_REQUEST"
    if "inject" in low or "jailbreak" in low: return "PROMPT_INJECTION"
    if "benign" in low or "safe" in low or "acknowledg" in low: return "BENIGN"
    return "BENIGN"
