Large language models have found success by scaling up capabilities to work in general settings. The same can unfortunately not be said for interpretability methods. The current trend in mechanistic interpretability is to provide precise explanations of specific behaviors in controlled settings. These often do not generalize, or are too resource intensive for larger studies. In this work we propose to study repeated behaviors in large language models by mining completion scenarios in Java code datasets, through exploiting the structured nature of code. We collect the attention patterns generated in the attention heads to demonstrate that they are scalable signals for global interpretability of model components. We show that vision models offer a promising direction for analyzing attention patterns at scale. To demonstrate this, we introduce the Attention Pattern - Masked Autoencoder(AP-MAE), a vision transformer-based model that efficiently reconstructs masked attention patterns. Experiments on StarCoder2 show that AP-MAE (i) reconstructs masked attention patterns with high accuracy, (ii) generalizes across unseen models with minimal degradation, (iii) reveals recurring patterns across inferences, (iv) predicts whether a generation will be correct without access to ground truth, with accuracies ranging from 55% to 70% depending on the task, and (v) enables targeted interventions that increase accuracy by 13.6% when applied selectively, but cause collapse when applied excessively. These results establish attention patterns as a scalable signal for interpretability and demonstrate that AP-MAE provides a transferable foundation for both analysis and intervention in large language models. Beyond its standalone value, AP-MAE also serves as a selection procedure to guide fine-grained mechanistic approaches. We release code and models to support future work in large-scale interpretability.
