Prompt injection scanner
Paste a prompt — we run nine open-source heuristic detectors and return an injection-likelihood score plus a breakdown of which patterns triggered. Useful as a first-pass signal before passing user input to an LLM.

Detectors
Each detector contributes to the final score additively (capped at 1.0). Severity buckets: clean (0), low (<0.25), medium (<0.5), high (≥0.5). Weights are tuned so a single high-severity hit produces a high score and several low-severity hits compound. The detector list is regex-based and intentionally not perfect; we treat it as a fast first-pass filter, not a security guarantee.
-
system_overrideweight 0.55“ignore previous instructions”, “you are now”, override clauses.
-
role_swapweight 0.4Chat-role markers: <|im_start|>, [INST], "Assistant:", "SYSTEM:".
-
tool_smugglingweight 0.45<tool>, <function>, execute(), eval(), os.system, subprocess.
-
data_exfilweight 0.45"Send to URL", "POST to", "render this image: <attacker URL>".
-
delimiter_breakweight 0.2Code-fence walls or triple-quote walls followed by a new-rule phrase.
-
multistep_jailbreakweight 0.3"Step 1: …" combined with role/system override patterns.
-
encoded_payloadweight 0.3Long base64/hex blocks, plus simple ROT13 fingerprints.
-
unicode_obfuscationweight 0.4Bidi controls, zero-width chars, tag-block, Cyrillic homoglyphs in Latin text.
-
language_switchingweight 0.1Two or more scripts (e.g., Latin + Cyrillic + CJK) each ≥15% of the prompt.
-
policy_bypassweight 0.5Pro: DAN, "developer mode", "without restrictions", hypothetical-framing jailbreaks.
-
prompt_leakweight 0.45Pro: "reveal the system prompt", "show your instructions", preprompt extraction.
