⚠️ Content Warning
This dataset contains harmful prompts and potentially harmful model reasoning traces.
The prompts are sourced from HarmBench and StrongReject datasets, which include requests for illegal activities, harmful instructions, and other problematic content.
The model reasoning traces may contain discussions of harmful methods, even when the models ultimately decides to refuse the requests.
This dataset is intended for AI safety research purposes only.
Users should exercise appropriate caution when working with this data and ensure compliance with their institution's ethics guidelines and applicable laws.
Reasoning Behaviors from Harmbench and Strong Reject
This dataset contains reasoning behavior segments extracted from language model responses.
You can find more information about it in my paper Annotating the Chain-of-Thought: A Behavior-Labeled Dataset for AI Safety
Dataset Structure
Each row represents a segment from a model's reasoning process with the following columns:
- prompt: The original user prompt
- context: The raw response text up to (but not including) the target sentence
- target_sentence: The specific reasoning segment text
- labels: List of behavior categories for this segment (from 20 possible categories)
- model: The language model that generated the response
- judge: The model used for labeling/judging the behavior
Note: This dataset contains only the reasoning traces and does not include the models' final answers.
The text fields (context, target_sentence) are raw text and do not include conversational templates (e.g., USER:, ASSISTANT:, <think>).

- II_STATE_LEGAL_CONCERN
- II_STATE_ETHICAL_MORAL_CONCERN
- III_EXPRESS_UNCERTAINTY_CONFUSION
- III_SELF_CORRECT_INFO_OR_DETAIL
- III_STATE_FACT_OR_KNOWLEDGE
- III_PLAN_IMMEDIATE_REASONING_STEP
- III_SUMMARIZE_INTERNAL_REASONING
- IV_INTEND_REFUSAL_OR_SAFE_ACTION
- IV_CONSIDER_BENIGN_REINTERPRETATION
- IV_SUGGEST_SAFE_CONSTRUCTIVE_ALTERNATIVE
- V_INTEND_HARMFUL_COMPLIANCE

Usage
This dataset can be used for:
- Training models to identify reasoning behaviors
- Analyzing patterns in language model reasoning
- Building steering vectors for behavior modification
- Research on AI safety and alignment
