MURANO: Design, Run, and Reproduce Mechanistic Interpretability Experiments as Composable Pipelines
This paper presents Murano, an open source framework for designing, running, and reproducing mechanistic interpretability studies of large language models, intended for researchers across disciplines. These studies often combine loading, recording, attribution, intervention, and evaluation, while existing libraries tend to focus on different parts of this workflow. As a result, researchers using several libraries may need to adapt outputs from one for use by another. To bridge this gap, Murano represents operations from these five areas as composable steps.
