1Put Little Canary at an inbound boundary before an authority-bearing agent reads or acts on untrusted text. Pass each text segment you want screened to the Python pipeline or local /check endpoint. Host plugins in this release generally intercept only the current submitted user prompt. Retrieved pages, files, email, tool results, history, and non-text content are not automatically inspected; applications can call the library on those text sources explicitly.</p><div class="overflow-hidden rounded-xl border border-surface-border bg-surface-raised mt-6"><div class="flex items-center justify-between border-b border-surface-border px-4 py-3"><div class="flex items-center gap-2"><span class="h-3 w-3 rounded-full bg-[#FF5F57]"></span><span class="h-3 w-3 rounded-full bg-[#FFBD2E]"></span><span class="h-3 w-3 rounded-full bg-[#28C840]"></span><span class="ml-3 font-mono text-xs text-text-tertiary">text</span></div><button class="rounded-md px-2 py-1 font-mono text-xs text-text-tertiary transition-colors hover:text-text-secondary focus-visible:outline-none focus-visible:ring-2 focus-visible:ring-canary" aria-label="Copy code">Copy</button></div><div class="overflow-x-auto p-4"><pre class="font-mono text-sm leading-relaxed"><span class="block whitespace-pre"><span class="mr-4 inline-block w-6 select-none text-right text-text-tertiary/50">1</span><code>Untrusted text → structural rules → optional powerless canary model → behavioral analysis → routing + coverage verdict → your policy → primary agent</code></span></pre></div></div><p class="mt-5 max-w-4xl break-words text-base leading-8 text-text-secondary">Structural rules check known patterns, including decoded variants. If block or full mode structurally blocks, the canary is skipped by default. Otherwise the raw text reaches the selected canary backend. The canary is given no application tools, credentials, or output-execution path; its response is inspected for compromise signals such as instruction echo or persona shift. This is an application-level authority boundary, not an operating-system sandbox. Do not forward the canary&#x27;s free-form response to the primary agent.</p><p class="mt-5 max-w-4xl break-words text-base leading-8 text-text-secondary">The default behavioral analyzer is rule based over the canary&#x27;s response. An optional judge_model replaces it with a second model call. Structural and behavioral signals combine according to block, advisory, or full mode; neither layer sanitizes the original input.

An auxiliary five-positive/five-benign-control JailBench-derived fixture is a development regression probe, not independent external validation; it must be selected explicitly.

Its detector decisions came from one frozen Qwen2.5:1.5b/Ollama realization, while Luna was the downstream model being tested. Missing, parser, technical, and tool-event outcomes counted as failures; 103 advised calls were new, 297 reused the exact raw response, and there were zero retries. The attack changes were directionally favorable but not statistically decisive (paired p=0.508 and p=0.625).
