JailbreakSkill: Scaling Automated Red-Teaming with Reusable and Ever-Evolving Skills

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2608. 16465v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated red-teaming has produced a growing collection of attack strategies, yet they typically remain scattered across prompts and workflows, making them difficult to systematically integrate, reuse, and improve at scale.

RedEvoAgent: Automatic Red-Teaming Agent with Experience-Driven Skill Evolution

RedEvoAgent is a black-box red‑teaming agent that transforms cross‑case attack trajectories into concise, human‑readable attack skills. It evolves these skills by profiling tool effectiveness, attributing tool credit, and applying a validation ratchet to keep only improvements. Experiments demonstrate that RedEvoAgent outperforms fixed and agentic baselines, enhances tool efficiency, and transfers across attacker models and target execution harnesses.

AlcaTRAz - Anchored Tree-Rule Defense Against Jailbreaks

AlcaTRAz is a prompt‑level defense that uses rule trees to insert controlled character‑level perturbations into input text, disrupting jailbreak attacks without modifying or retraining the target LLM. It operates solely on the input, making it suitable for black‑box deployments, and was evaluated on 33 open‑weight models and 22 jailbreak types, outperforming three baseline defenses in 73.4 % of model‑attack combinations. While it significantly reduces high‑severity jailbreak success, it does not eliminate it and is intended as one layer of a broader defense strategy.
