Model Description

SingProbe is an intrinsic streaming guardrail built on stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash. Rather than running a separate safety model, this lightweight probe reuses the base model's hidden states during generation to score, at every token, query intent, response unsafety, and hallucination risk. It adds less than 0.5% decode-time overhead.

Base model	Probe parameters	Tapped layers	Outputs
inclusionAI/Step-3.7-Flash-singprobe	8.13M	[13, 28, 43]	8 intents + unsafe + hallucination

See the technical report for methodology and complete results. Training codes are available at inclusionAI/SingProbe.

Evaluation

Higher is better for every metric. Results are averages over the benchmark suites specified below.

Task	Metric	Step-3.7-Flash-singprobe	Reference baseline
Query intent classification (6 benchmarks)	F1	0.8502	YuFeng-XGuard-Reason-8B: 0.8714
Response safety classification (8 benchmarks)	F1	0.8555	Qwen3Guard-Gen-8B-strict: 0.8604
Streaming safety (3 benchmarks)	R-AUC / T-AUC	0.9858 / 0.9295	Qwen3Guard-Stream-8B-strict: 0.9640 / 0.8893
Hallucination detection (6 benchmarks)	AUC	0.7904	DRIFT: 0.8000

Deployment characteristic	Result
Benign-response false-positive rate	0.05% average across 5 datasets
Decode overhead	< 0.5%

Quick Start

SingProbe is supported through the SGLang integration branch or vLLM integration branch. Load the probe by its Hugging Face ID at server launch:

python -m sglang.launch_server \
  --model-path stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash \
  --probe-ckpt inclusionAI/Step-3.7-Flash-singprobe \
  --port 30000

The integrations return one score dictionary per generated token (label_0–label_9). Use the exact base-model/probe pair: stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash with this checkpoint.
