Compliance-forcing instructions cause up to 30 percentage point drops in metacognitive accuracy across most frontier models, while removing the compliance element restores performance and Constitutional AI shows near-immunity.
CoT-Guard is a 4B model using SFT and RL that achieves 75% G-mean^2 on hidden objective detection under prompt and code manipulation attacks, outperforming several larger models.

Faithfulness as Information Flow: Evaluating and Training Faithful Chain-of-Thought Reasoning
Faithful chain-of-thought routes answer-relevant information through the CoT path, measured via sufficiency, completeness and necessity with entropy, masked-KL and gradient diagnostics, and improved by information-flow interventions during verifier-based RL.
