  ## Look inside the run
23
 
 
24
  - **Flow Map:** inspect measured connections between layers and experts for different input domains.
25
  - **Representation structure:** observe how activation variation concentrates and how dominant directions move.
26
  - **Expert routing:** compare which subjects reach which experts, separately for each layer.
27
  - **Domain interaction:** inspect sharing and training-gradient agreement alongside loss and task results.
28
 
 
29
  ## Capture. Record. Inspect.
30
 
 
31
  The tracker captures measurements using consistent probe inputs. A self-contained **.iris** file records the run. The local **Bench** reads that growing record during training and opens it afterward without loading the model.
32
 
 
33
  Each graph has an Explain guide. Teams can define labeled scalar signals, derive formulas from captured channels, and export custom charts.

  ## Work in your own environment

43
  IRIS fits existing PyTorch training loops, with capture and inspection on CPU, Apple MPS, or NVIDIA CUDA. Coverage depends on model layout; shared-weight configurations are currently unsupported.

45
  Model weights, activations, and probe text are not sent to Saccadic. Licensing and metering contact Saccadic. Optional configured relays send selected scalar measurements to existing experiment trackers.

52
+ The map provides an internal view alongside the accuracy curves: which experts carry each domain’s measured signal, where paths overlap, and how traffic is distributed across layers. Revisit these measurements across the recorded run to inspect how the patterns change.
