"""Calibrate the guard's topicality threshold against the live index.
Usage: python scripts/calibrate_guard.py (needs NEON_URL + LLM env)
Runs three question groups through the guard's topicality path (embed โ†’
top_distance) and prints every distance, sorted, plus per-group stats and a
suggested threshold. (Non-English input is bounced by the guard's language
gate before topicality, so this only calibrates the English distance cutoff.)
- on-topic โ€” the 100 valid questions (eval/questions_v1.jsonl): real
PyTorch questions, all grounded in the docs; must ALL pass.
- off-topic โ€” the 100 invalid questions (eval/invalid_v1.jsonl): React,
TensorFlow, and other out-of-scope topics; should ALL block.
- borderline โ€” a few ML-adjacent probes plus injection attempts, where the
policy line actually lives. Eyeball before tightening.
The suggestion is the midpoint between the worst on-topic distance and the
best off-topic distance. If the groups overlap, the print makes that visible
โ€” fix the corpus or accept the overlap consciously; don't split the
difference blindly. 100 vs 100 gives a far more trustworthy threshold than
the earlier 13-vs-10.
