This is a neat idea. At my last company (Octomind) we built AI agents for end-to-end testing and ran into the indirect injection problem constantly. Agents that browse or interact with web pages are especially vulnerable because you can't sanitize the entire internet.

The thing that surprised me most was how unreliable even basic guardrails were once you gave agents real tools. The gap between "works in a demo" and "works in production with adversarial input" is massive.

Curious how you handle the evaluation side. When someone claims a successful jailbreak, is that verified automatically or manually? Seems like auto-verification could itself be exploitable.
