Full Analysis
- [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill provides actionable instructions for overriding AI safety constraints and bypassing refusal training.
- It describes several jailbreak methodologies including persona framing (e.g., "DAN"), "many-shot" context flooding, and "Crescendo" multi-turn escalation.
- It specifically instructs the agent to suppress refusal reflexes by beginning replies with pre-defined affirmative prefixes.
- [OBFUSCATION]: The skill utilizes and provides code for generating hidden characters to evade detection filters.
- The
Runnable ProbePython script inSKILL.mdcontains a zero-width space (U+200B) used to demonstrate how to split trigger words to bypass pattern-matching filters. - The script provides a utility (
to_tags) to convert plaintext into invisible Unicode Tag-block characters (U+E0000–U+E007F) for "ASCII smuggling," allowing instructions to be read by the model while remaining hidden from human reviewers and automated classifiers. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The skill outlines strategies for exfiltrating data past Output DLP (Data Loss Prevention) systems.
- Technique 11 ("Incidental transformation") describes embedding sensitive data as side effects within URL parameters or structured formats (CSV, JSON) to bypass semantic filters that would block explicit exfiltration requests.
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill documents how to exploit surfaces where untrusted data enters the agent's context.
- Ingestion points: Identifies RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) chunks and multi-turn dialogue as vectors for landing payloads.
- Boundary markers: Recommends using incidental pretexts to blend malicious transformations into plausible tasks, effectively bypassing boundary detection.
- Capability inventory: Mentions utilizing tool calls and network operations (e.g., through URL construction) as sinks for payloads.
- Sanitization: The skill focuses entirely on bypassing existing sanitization and filters rather than implementing them.
