用自生成数据提升大模型安全对齐，减少对推理能力的损害。

Safety alignment often improves robustness to harmful queries at the cost of reasoning ability, a tradeoff known as the safety tax. A common cause is distributional mismatch: supervised fine-tuning trains the target model on safety demonstrations produced by humans, external models, or fixed self-generated traces, rather than on trajectories sampled from its own policy. We identify off-policy training mismatch as a second source of this tax and study on-policy self-distillation for safety alignment, which we call OPSA. The model generates its own rollouts and receives dense per-token KL supervision from a frozen teacher copy of itself conditioned on a privileged safety context. Because this teacher must be safer than the sampled student trajectory, we introduce \emph{teacher flip rate}: a criterion that measures how often a privileged context converts unsafe responses into safe ones. We use this signal to search for contexts that activate latent safety reasoning rather than merely elicit safe-looking demonstrations. Across two reasoning-model families and five model scales, OPSA achieves a stronger safety--reasoning tradeoff than off-policy self-distillation and external-teacher distillation under matched data and full-parameter fine-tuning, with the largest gains on smaller models (+8.85 points on R1-Distill-1.5B and +5.49 points on Qwen3-0.6B). The gains persist across training-set sizes and adaptive jailbreak evaluations. Token-level analyses further show that OPSA concentrates updates near early compliance-decision tokens, providing a mechanism for improving safety while preserving general reasoning.
