发现Transformer原始维度的符号就能检测和操控概念，无需训练。

The standard basis of transformer hidden states is a training-free, architecture-general feature basis for detecting concepts and, in language models, steering them; with no learned dictionary. Individual dimensions act as binary registers read one at a time: their signs (+/-1) encode content, their magnitudes strength. A feature is just a subset of dimensions with a consistent sign pattern, read by counting sign agreements. We validate this Bag of Dims (BoD) framework across seven models spanning language, vision, and audio; reading dimensions one at a time loses nothing, as a full-capacity MLP adds zero AUC over per-dim reading. The same per-dimension signs appear in every modality, so they reflect transformer training itself, not the language objective. Sign alone carries predictive content: setting all magnitudes to unity preserves 60-93% top-5 next-token accuracy through the LM head. From a single-token cache (one forward pass per token, no labels) we detect 175 categories at AUC 0.97-0.99 by counting sign agreements, and from random seeds alone discovery scales to 1500 features per model. A trained probe adds only +0.018 AUC and converges to axis-aligned weights: the rotation dictionaries learn buys little. Signs are causally operative: they survive the attention projections, and flipping a concept's sign pattern in the live forward pass suppresses it. Reading and steering are separate roles in the same basis: a concept's reader dimensions are not its writer dimensions. The writer target is just as cheap, the sign of the summed unembedding rows over a few seeds, no training. Injected through the attention output pathway under closed-loop control, it steers concepts into fluent text on four language models (62-92% of twelve concepts). The signs were in the standard basis all along; the open problem is no longer finding the right rotation but cataloging what each dimension encodes.
