Part A: HuggingFace Dataset browser
- soup data search: search HF Hub for datasets (sort by downloads/likes)
- soup data preview: preview remote dataset metadata, splits, features
- soup data download: stream HF dataset to local JSONL (with format conversion)
- Security: trust_remote_code=False, path traversal protection, samples cap at 1M
Part B: Freeze training (like LLaMA-Factory finetuning_type: freeze)
- freeze_layers / freeze_ratio config fields
- soup_cli/utils/freeze.py: detect layers, freeze bottom N
- Wired into SFT trainer before LoRA application
- Supports LLaMA (layers.N) and GPT-2 (h.N) naming
Part C: Loss watchdog (like Axolotl loss_watchdog_threshold)
- loss_watchdog, loss_watchdog_threshold, loss_watchdog_patience config
- Implemented in SoupTrainerCallback with patience counter
- Rich warning panel (stops Live display first), fires only once
- Wired into all 11 trainers via callback kwargs
Part D: Dataset info registry
- soup data register/unregister/registry commands
- ~/.soup/datasets.json local name→path+format mapping
- Name validation, path traversal protection, Rich markup escaping
