Could you build this?

Partial A llama.cpp fork that modifies model behavior at inference is a C++ modification of an existing engine that AI assistance can help with. Doing it correctly and reliably requires interpretability and inference-engine expertise.

What it would actually take: The build starts from the llama.cpp codebase and adds a hook in the forward pass that projects out a learned refusal direction from activations or weights. The hard parts are identifying the direction from model activations and applying the edit correctly across layers and architectures. This needs ML research familiarity and solid C++ work on the inference engine.
