A novel dataset combining system prompt adherence with structured internal reasoning traces, built on findings from 14+ research papers.
This dataset is the first to systematically combine system prompt diversity with structured reasoning traces. It incorporates findings from:
| Paper | Key Finding | How We Use It |
|---|---|---|
| Sky-T1 (Berkeley, 2025) | Structure > content in reasoning traces β wrong answers with good structure only cost -3.2% accuracy | All traces have proper <think> tags, step decomposition, reflection, and backtracking |
| RNR: RoleNRules (Amazon, 2024) | Training with diverse system prompts improves adherence by +37.4% | 48 domains Γ 72 constraint types = thousands of unique system prompts |
| Instruction Hierarchy (OpenAI, 2024) | Models need explicit training on system > user priority conflicts | Slice 2: aligned vs misaligned user requests with hierarchy-aware reasoning |
| SysBench (2024) | Models degrade at following system constraints across multi-turn conversations | Slice 3: 3-5 turn conversations with constraint testing and escalation |
| CST (2024) | System prompt determines preference, not hard-coded behavior | Slice 5: DPO pairs with swapped preferences under opposing system prompts |
| DeepSeek-R1 (2025) | <think>...</think> template for reasoning traces |
All assistant responses use <think> blocks |
| RFT/SHAD (2024) | Reasoning tokens deserve more loss weight than boilerplate | Reasoning keywords are concentrated and identifiable in traces |
| Thinking Tokens (2024) | Explicit CoT > latent thinking tokens | Natural language reasoning, not learned embeddings |
| Project Ariadne (2026) | Reasoning traces must be causally faithful, not post-hoc rationalizations | Traces reference specific constraints and show genuine decision-making |
| MetaSPO (2025) | System prompts are task-agnostic behavioral guides that synergize with user prompts | System prompts cover diverse cross-domain rules |
| ManyIH (JHU, 2026) | Models need many-tier instruction hierarchy, not just system > user | Hierarchy examples include reasoning about privilege levels |
| Apple IF Research (2024) | Models have a localized instruction-following dimension in embedding space | Diverse constraint-following training amplifies this dimension |
| Behavior-Equivalent Token (2025) | System prompt behavior is learnable as compact representation | Rich behavioral specifications that models can internalize |
sft (1,150 examples)
For Supervised Fine-Tuning β teaches models to follow system prompts while producing structured reasoning.
| Slice | Count | Description |
|---|---|---|
system_prompt_reasoning |
600 | Diverse system prompts + questions β <think> reasoning traces that respect constraints |
hierarchy_aligned |
200 | User requests compatible with system rules β model reasons through both |
hierarchy_misaligned |
200 | User requests that conflict with system rules β model reasons about hierarchy and defers to system |
multi_turn_stability |
150 | 3-5 turn conversations testing constraint persistence, including escalation attempts |
Format: Standard ChatML messages format
{
"messages": [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are an expert..."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Question..."},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "<think>reasoning...</think>\n\nResponse..."}
]
}
dpo (300 pairs)
For Direct Preference Optimization β teaches models that the system prompt determines the preferred response style.
| Type | Count | Description |
|---|---|---|
thorough_preferred |
150 | Under "be thorough" system prompt β detailed response is chosen |
concise_preferred |
150 | Under "be concise" system prompt β brief response is chosen (same data, swapped preferences) |
Format: Standard DPO format
{
"system": "You are a thorough expert...",
"prompt": "Question...",
"chosen": "Detailed response...",
"rejected": "Brief response..."
}
Each SFT example includes rich metadata:
