Causal Syntax Circuits in CodeLMs: Budget and Probe Decide What Looks Localised
arXiv:2610.20683v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Code models write Python when the prompt does not say which language to use. We ask a mechanistic question about that habit: is it produced by a small, findable group of components inside the model? We run one pipeline---mean ablation, activation patc…
