arXiv:2605.23393v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability of transformers requires identifying not just which components matter but how they compose into the computational route that produced a prediction. Both attention and MLP follow a shared key-value template $\phi(S)U$. We exploit this structure to develop Unpack, a backward recursion that decomposes credit through both sublayers, producing interaction strengths between any two components, named end-to-end paths with K/Q/V composition labels, and per-token attribution from a single forward pass, without intervention, gr
