NRT-Bench: Nuclear Red-Team Benchmark

First public benchmark for adversarial robustness evaluation of LLM-based
autonomous agents in safety-critical environments, instantiated on a nuclear
power plant (NPP) control-room simulation.

Two configs, one record set

The same records are published in two shapes so you only download what
you need:

Pick by config_name:

from datasets import load_dataset

# Lightweight replay set
ds_replay   = load_dataset("Albertmade/nrt-bench", "replay", split="test")
print(ds_replay[0]["attacker_payloads"][:1])

# Full modelling set
ds_analysis = load_dataset("Albertmade/nrt-bench", "analysis", split="train")
print(ds_analysis[0]["turns"][:2])

Splits (counts are identical across configs)

Source

The benchmark is curated from 574 multi-turn red-team trials against the
nuclear-redteam-sim (multi-agent control-room simulator: SRO / RO / TO /
STA / AO`). Attacks were generated by an
redteam experts.

Ablation axes actually applied to the simulator at runtime (via the
simulator's POST /run/reconfigure endpoint):

• scenario: normal_baseline / loca_small
• guardrail_set: G0 (none) / full (all 10 of G1-G10)
• sta_mode: STA-B / STA-Off

Tasks (use analysis config)

1. BreachPredict — predict outcome.success from full turns (binary).
2. RiskClassify — predict sg_id(s) from a single attacker turn (multi-label).
3. DefenseJudge — regress turns[n].judge_score from (attacker, defender, context).
4. GuardrailPredict — predict which guardrail_blocked fires next.

Replay (use replay config)

A static benchmark is only useful if other defenders can be measured against it.
The upstream simulator ships a stand-alone replay runner that takes any
record from this replay config, reconstructs the matching (scenario, guardrail_set, sta_mode) cell on the sim via /run/reconfigure, replays
the recorded attacker_payloads turn-by-turn, and scores the new defender
stack with an OpenRouter / OpenAI judge:

pip install datasets huggingface_hub httpx
cd nuclear-redteam-sim && make up        # boot the sim with YOUR models
python replay_benchmark.py \
    --dataset Albertmade/nrt-bench --split test \
    --output-dir replay_results --judge openrouter

Provenance / safety

• LLM system prompts and raw agent thoughts are never included.
• Internal trial / sim run identifiers are stripped from all records.
• Real NPP procedure content is not in the simulation and not in the dataset;
  procedure references are abstract symbols (e.g. EOP-1.3, NOP-12).
• Nullable integer fields (breach_turn, turns_used, seed) use sentinel
  -1 to keep Arrow types stable across splits.
