JT-SAFE-V2: Safety-by-Design Foundation Model with World-Context Data

arXiv:2605.24414v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce JT-Safe-V2, a large language model designed to advance the safety and trustworthiness of foundation models, extending our previous JT-Safe model toward a more comprehensive safety-by-design paradigm. JT-Safe-V2 emphasizes the joint optimization of general intelligence and safety-by-design through several key innovations: enriching pre-training data with contextual world knowledge, high-certainty pre-training procedures, and safety strengthening post-training mechanisms for enterprise-oriented agentic capabilities. Building on these safety-enhanced foundation models, we propose Safe-MoMA (Safe Mixture of Models and Agents), a framework that enables traceable and efficient inference through the orchestrated deployment of multiple models and agents. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that JT-Safe-V2 achieves state-of-the-art performance across both general intelligence and safety benchmarks. Moreover, Safe-MoMA reduces inference costs by more than 30\% compared to using the largest standalone model baseline while maintaining comparable performance. To facilitate future research on safety-by-design foundation models, we publicly release the post-trained JT-Safe-V2-35B model checkpoint.

Reflect-Guard: Enhancing LLM Safeguards against Adversarial Prompts via Logical Self-Reflection

arXiv:2605.24834v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) safety classifiers such as Llama Guard are effective at detecting overtly harmful prompts but remain vulnerable to adversarial jailbreak attacks that disguise malicious intent through role-play scenarios, fictional framing, and indirect requests. We present Reflect-Guard, a method that augments LLM-based safety classifiers with chain-of-thought self-reflection capabilities through parameter-efficient fine-tuning. Our approach distills analytical reasoning from GPT-4o-mini into structured reflection annotations, then trains Llama-Guard-3-8B via QLoRA to generate logical self-reflections before issuing safety verdicts. Using only 1000 training examples and updating just 0.5% of model parameters (~42M), Reflect-Guard achieves substantial improvements on two challenging benchmarks. On WildGuardTest, F1 score improves from 0.770 to 0.842 (+7.2 pp), with recall on adversarial prompts increasing from 0.513 to 0.921 (+40.8 pp). On JailbreakBench, the attack success rate drops from 10.3% to 1.8%, representing an 82.5% relative reduction. These gains are especially pronounced on adversarial inputs, where the explicit reasoning step enables the model to see through obfuscation techniques that defeat standard pattern-matching approaches. Our results demonstrate that teaching safety classifiers to reason about adversarial intent, rather than simply classify surface patterns, is a promising direction for robust LLM safety.

Contextual Rollout Bandits for Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards

arXiv:2602.08499v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) is an effective paradigm for improving the reasoning capabilities of large language models. However, existing RLVR methods utilize rollouts in an indiscriminate and short-horizon manner: responses of heterogeneous quality within each prompt are treated uniformly, and historical rollouts are discarded after a single use. This leads to noisy supervision, poor sample efficiency, and suboptimal policy updates. We address these issues by formulating rollout scheduling in RLVR as a contextual bandit problem and proposing a unified neural scheduling framework that adaptively selects high-value rollouts throughout training. Each rollout is treated as an arm whose reward is defined by the induced performance gain between consecutive optimization steps. The resulting scheduler supports both noise-aware intra-group selection and adaptive global reuse of historical rollouts within a single principled framework. We provide theoretical justification by deriving sublinear regret bounds and showing that enlarging the rollout buffer improves the achievable performance upper bound. Experiments on six mathematical reasoning benchmarks demonstrate consistent gains in performance and training efficiency across multiple RLVR optimization methods.
