Cerberus: Safeguards for LLMs

This repository contains the implementation of the synthetic data generation pipeline described in Cerberus: Safeguards for Large Language Models - Synthetic Data Generation (Part 1).

Development Setup

This project uses Nix to manage development dependencies. Follow these steps to get started:

Prerequisites

Install Nix

On Linux/macOS:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install

Alternative (official installer):

sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon

Setup Steps

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <your-repo-url>
   cd <your-project>

2. Enter the development environment:

   nix-shell

   This will automatically download and install all required tools (just, act, uv).

3. Verify installation: The shell will show version information for all tools when you enter the environment.

Usage

Once in the development environment, you have access to:

• just - Command runner for project tasks
• act - Run GitHub Actions locally
• uv - Fast Python package management
