## The task
Restore punctuation and sentence segmentation (句读) to unpunctuated Classical
Chinese — a capability current LLMs perform poorly and inconsistently. Each record
is an auto-verifiable supervised pair: the `input` is unpunctuated hanzi, the
`output` is the same text with gold punctuation.

```json
{"task":"punctuate_classical_chinese",
 "instruction":"为下面的文言文断句并加上标点。",
 "input":"韩信之后也当淮阴钟室难作之时有客匿其孤求抚于萧相国…",
 "output":"韩信之后也。当淮阴钟室难作之时，有客匿其孤，求抚于萧相国…",
 "title":"坚瓠集","dynasty":"清","author":"褚人获","canon":"子藏"}
```

## What you get (full set)
- **5,314,004 supervised pairs** across 10 canons of classical Chinese (history,
  philosophy, poetry, religion, medicine, arts), spanning the 汉–清 dynasties.
- Train / validation / test splits, plus an **81,929-pair held-out evaluation set**
  (contamination-controlled; licensed separately).
- Per-work attribution: `title`, `dynasty`, `author`, `canon`.
- Parquet (zstd) shards, one per canon. See `CONTENTS.md` for the full breakdown.

## Why it is high quality
- **Auto-verifiable labels.** Each `input` is produced by *stripping* an
  authoritative edition's punctuation from the `output`, so `input == output`
  minus punctuation by construction (QC: 0 mismatches). No second LLM touches the
  labels — clean provenance, no synthetic distillation.
- **Leakage-controlled.** Split **by work**, not by passage. Mojibake-rejected,
  punctuation-density filtered, globally de-duplicated; cross-canon duplicate works
  collapsed to one canonical copy.

## This repo (listing)
Public **200-record sample** only (`sample.jsonl`). The full corpus, per-canon
shards, and held-out eval are delivered on purchase. Payment and delivery are
handled off-platform — **email `wangeksy@gmail.com`**.

## Provenance & rights
Base texts are public-domain classical works (汉–清). An editorial-rights-clean,
**independently re-punctuated** tier (labels produced from the public-domain text
without any third-party 整理本) is available on request for redistribution use cases.
