What llmscan tests

29 probes across six categories, with a report you can inspect.

llmscan uses a finite suite of prompts to test particular failure behaviours. Its published definitions cover prompt injection, sensitive information disclosure, improper output handling, system-prompt leakage, misinformation and unbounded consumption.

From a prompt to a finding

Detection uses signals including a secret canary, decoded responses, per-probe patterns and output-length limits. Optional model judging can assess cases that simple patterns do not capture.

A grade has a scope

The report describes the selected model, configuration and prompts used in that run. A change to the model or system prompt can change the findings. A clean report cannot cover attacks that are absent from the suite.
