| # How to publish LEGEX to Hugging Face anonymously |
|
|
| This walkthrough takes the contents of `submission/` and publishes **three |
| public Hugging Face dataset repositories** under the anonymous account |
| `legexbenchmark`: |
|
|
| 1. **`legexbenchmark/goldensets`** — expert-coded gold annotations |
| (19 jurisdictions, 1,548 judgments / 1,974 rows incl. secondary |
| re-annotations). |
| 2. **`legexbenchmark/inference-results`** — Harvey (2 runs) / Gemini / GPT / |
| Legora (2 runs) outputs (19 jurisdictions × 6 runs = 114 files, JSONL) |
| plus the per-column prompts of the commercial runs (`prompts/`, 4 files). |
| 3. **`legexbenchmark/code`** — Python pipeline (scrape → process → infer → |
| clean → evaluate). |
|
|
| > **All data files are JSONL** (one JSON object per line). Inference was CSV |
| > in the first release and is now JSONL — see *Updating an existing release* |
| > below. |

|
|
| ## 0. Updating an existing release (goldensets + inference-results) |
|
|
| The three repos already exist, and local clones live in |
| `../hf-uploads/{goldensets,inference-results,code}`. The staged bundle |
| (`submission/goldensets/`, `submission/inference-results/`) mirrors the two |
| data repos 1:1: data + the per-repo dataset card (`README.md`). |
|
|
| Rebuild the bundle only if the underlying data changed |
| (`convert_goldenset_to_jsonl.py` needs the local-only |
| `data/reannotation/annotators.json` + `ANNOTATOR_SALT` from `.env`): |
|
|
| ```bash |
| uv run python submission/convert_goldenset_to_jsonl.py --data-dir data --out-dir submission/goldensets/data |
| (cd submission && uv run python build_inference_jsonl.py --data-dir ../data --gold-dir goldensets/data --out-dir inference-results/data) |
| ``` |
|
|
| When the working trees in `../hf-uploads/` are already synced from |
| `submission/` (data + README copied in, stale CSVs removed), pushing the |
| update is: |
|
|
| ```bash |
| # Log in once with the anonymous account's WRITE token. |
| pip install --upgrade huggingface_hub && git lfs install --skip-repo |
| huggingface-cli login # paste the hf_… write token |
| huggingface-cli whoami # must print: legexbenchmark |
| |
| # --- goldensets --- |
| cd ../hf-uploads/goldensets |
| git status && git diff --stat # review: data/<cc>/*.jsonl + README.md |
| git config user.name anonymous && git config user.email anonymous@anonymous.invalid |
| git add -A |
| git commit -m "Update: re-annotations, Nepal/Singapore extensions, traceability fields, refreshed card" |
| git push |
| cd - |
| |
| # --- inference-results (CSV -> JSONL) --- |
| cd ../hf-uploads/inference-results |
| git status # review: CSVs deleted, 57 JSONL added, README.md, .gitattributes |
| git config user.name anonymous && git config user.email anonymous@anonymous.invalid |
| git add -A |
| git commit -m "Switch inference to JSONL; 19 jurisdictions; cleaning provenance; refreshed card" |
| git push |
| cd - |
| ``` |
|
|
| Then **verify usability** (the old CSV raised `ArrowInvalid`): |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| load_dataset("legexbenchmark/goldensets", split="brazil") |
| load_dataset("legexbenchmark/inference-results", "harvey", split="united_states") |
| load_dataset("legexbenchmark/inference-results", "gpt", split="switzerland") |
| ``` |
|
|
| Also confirm on the web UI that every commit author reads **`anonymous`**, the |
| dataset viewer renders both repos, and no `inference_*.csv` remain in |
| `inference-results`. |
|
|
| **`code`** is updated separately once the cleaned analysis package is staged — |
| see item 3 of [CHANGES_SINCE_SUBMISSION.md](CHANGES_SINCE_SUBMISSION.md). |
|

|
|
| ## 1. Create the anonymous Hugging Face account (once) |
|
|
| 1. Open a private / incognito browser window so cookies from any existing |
| HF account are isolated. |
| 2. Visit <https://huggingface.co/join>. |
| 3. Sign up with a **fresh email address** that is not tied to any of the |
| authors (a `proton.me` / `tutanota.com` mailbox works fine). |
| 4. Pick the username **`legexbenchmark`** so the public URLs match the |
| names used in the paper. |
| 5. Verify the email and log in. |
|
|
| > **Why a fresh account?** HF attaches your account's display name, avatar |
| > and email to commits in each repo's history. Reusing an existing account |
| > would leak your identity even if every file in the repo is clean. |
|
|
| ## 2. Create a write-scoped access token (once) |
|
|
| 1. Visit <https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens>. |
| 2. Click **New token**, name it `upload`, role **Write**, click **Generate |
| token**, copy the value (it starts with `hf_`). |
|
|
| ## 3. Install the tooling and log in (once) |
|
|
| ```bash |
| pip install --upgrade huggingface_hub |
| git lfs install --skip-repo # macOS: brew install git-lfs first |
| |
| # Paste the write token created in step 2 when prompted. |
| huggingface-cli login |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## 4. Push the three repositories (initial release) |
|
|
| Run steps 4a → 4c **in order**. Each step is independent — if something |
| breaks in 4b you can fix it without redoing 4a. |
|
|
| ### 4a. Push `legexbenchmark/goldensets` |
|
|
| ```bash |
| # 1. Create the empty repo via the web UI: |
| # https://huggingface.co/new-dataset |
| # Owner: legexbenchmark | Name: goldensets | License: MIT | Public |
| |
| # 2. Clone, anonymise local git, copy in the staged files. |
| git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/legexbenchmark/goldensets hf-goldensets |
| cd hf-goldensets |
| git config user.name "anonymous" |
| git config user.email "anonymous@anonymous.invalid" |
| git lfs track "*.jsonl" |
| git add .gitattributes |
| |
| cp -R ../submission/goldensets/. . |
| |
| # 3. Commit and push. |
| git add . |
| git commit -m "Initial release" |
| git push -u origin main |
| cd .. |
| ``` |
|
|
| Open <https://huggingface.co/datasets/legexbenchmark/goldensets>. Verify: |
|
|
| - The dataset card renders with the jurisdiction tables. |
| - `data/<cc>/goldenset_<cc>.jsonl` is browsable for all 19 jurisdictions. |
| - The author next to every commit is **`anonymous`**. |
|
|
| ### 4b. Push `legexbenchmark/inference-results` |
|
|
| ```bash |
| # 1. Create the empty repo: |
| # https://huggingface.co/new-dataset |
| # Owner: legexbenchmark | Name: inference-results | License: MIT | Public |
| |
| # 2. Clone, anonymise, copy in. |
| git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/legexbenchmark/inference-results hf-inference |
| cd hf-inference |
| git config user.name "anonymous" |
| git config user.email "anonymous@anonymous.invalid" |
| git lfs track "*.jsonl" |
| git add .gitattributes |
| |
| cp -R ../submission/inference-results/. . |
| |
| # 3. Commit and push. |
| git add . |
| git commit -m "Initial release" |
| git push -u origin main |
| cd .. |
| ``` |
|
|
| Verify on <https://huggingface.co/datasets/legexbenchmark/inference-results>: |
|
|
| - 19 `data/<cc>/` folders (all jurisdictions). |
| - Each folder has `inference_harvey.jsonl`, `inference_gemini.jsonl`, |
| `inference_gpt.jsonl` (no `.csv`). |
|
|
| ### 4c. Push `legexbenchmark/code` |
|
|
| ```bash |
| # 1. Create the empty repo: |
| # https://huggingface.co/new-dataset |
| # Owner: legexbenchmark | Name: code | License: MIT | Public |
| # (HF dataset repos accept arbitrary files — we use "dataset" type as |
| # the most permissive container for source code.) |
| |
| # 2. Clone, anonymise, copy in the cleaned package (see |
| # CHANGES_SINCE_SUBMISSION.md item 3 for what goes into the code repo). |
| git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/legexbenchmark/code hf-code |
| cd hf-code |
| git config user.name "anonymous" |
| git config user.email "anonymous@anonymous.invalid" |
| |
| # 3. Commit and push. |
| git add . |
| git commit -m "Initial release" |
| git push -u origin main |
| cd .. |
| ``` |
|
|
| Verify on <https://huggingface.co/datasets/legexbenchmark/code>: |
|
|
| - The repo card lists the CLI entrypoints and the workflow. |
| - `legex/scrapers/` contains 19 jurisdiction modules. |
|
|
| ## 5. Cross-verify the org page |
|
|
| Open <https://huggingface.co/legexbenchmark> in a fresh tab — you should |
| see three pinned datasets. Click each card and confirm: |
|
|
| - The README renders correctly. |
| - The "Files and versions" tab is browsable. |
| - No identifying information appears next to commits (everything should |
| read `anonymous`). |
|
|
| Also run one final string search per repo via the file viewer for your own |
| surname, your affiliation, and your work email domain: |
|
|
| ``` |
| <your-surname> # must return nothing |
| <your-affiliation> # must return nothing |
| <your-email-domain> # must return nothing |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## 6. Share with reviewers |
|
|
| The single URL that ties the three repos together is |
| <https://huggingface.co/legexbenchmark>. Add it to the supplementary |
| material of your OpenReview submission; reviewers can browse all three |
| datasets from that org page without logging into HF. |
|
|

|
|
| ## Troubleshooting |
|
|
| **A commit shows your real name despite the local config.** Run |
| `git log -1 --pretty='%an <%ae>'` inside the clone. If it still shows your |
| real identity, redo `git config user.name / user.email` and then |
| `git commit --amend --reset-author` before pushing. |
|
|
| **HF complains about LFS quota.** Free accounts get 1 GB of LFS storage; |
| this release uses ~30 MB so quota is not a concern. |
|
|
| **A file exceeds 5 GB.** None of the files in this release do. If a future |
| addition does, `git lfs track` the path and recommit. |
|
|
| **You want to delete a repo.** Each repo's Settings page has "Delete this |
| dataset repository" — that removes files and history. |
|
|
| **You need to re-push after a fix.** `cd` into the local clone, edit, commit |
| with `--reset-author` if you also re-ran `git config`, then `git push`. |
|
|
| **Reviewers ask for a single zip.** HF's "Use this dataset" → "Repository |
| size" → "Download repository" gives a `.tar.gz` of the whole repo. |
