Beyond the Transcript: Detecting Covert Co ordination in Latent Multi-Agent Communication

The paper introduces Verifiable Latent Alignments (VLA), a framework that monitors and steers hidden communication channels between language‑model agents. VLA links private latent states to public actions via event identifiers, enabling causal analysis. Experiments on a multi‑agent auction benchmark show high detection accuracy and effective mitigation of collusion, even without training on attack examples.
