Qwen3-0.6B

closing bracket ending an aside

A neuron in layer 14 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are very consistent: they mostly peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the closing bracket that finishes a short extra phrase in brackets, such as "(accounting phase)" or "(orange cap)". It was weaker on the closing bracket after source names like "(Nanowerk News)". Turning it up did not give a clearly related theme.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: medium. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

Steering

Push this neuron up or down while the model writes, and watch what changes. The outputs were generated ahead of time, so nothing runs in your browser.

Logit lens

The words this neuron nudges the model toward (amber) or away from (blue) when it fires. A hint, not a label: many neurons work through later layers instead.
