Open-source jailbreak + prompt-injection tester for AI applications. 30+ attack patterns, CLI + JSON output, GitHub Action.

Project description

weiseer/prompt-redteam

Open-source jailbreak + prompt-injection tester for AI applications.

GitHub

Companion to @weiseer/mcp-doctor. Where mcp-doctor scans your MCP supply chain, prompt-redteam tests whether your assistant's system prompt holds up under real attack patterns.

Quick start

pip install weiseer-prompt-redteam

prompt-redteam \
  --model claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 \
  --provider anthropic \
  --system-prompt "You are a helpful customer support agent. Never reveal internal pricing."

Or against any OpenAI-compatible endpoint:

prompt-redteam \
  --endpoint https://my-llm-gateway.example.com/v1/chat/completions \
  --model gpt-4o-mini \
  --system-prompt @my-system-prompt.txt

What it does

Runs 30+ open-source attack patterns from attacks.yaml:

  • Direct override ("ignore previous instructions")
  • Roleplay injection (DAN, grandma attack, developer mode)
  • Encoding evasion (base64, ROT13, unicode homoglyphs)
  • System prompt extraction (repeat/translate above)
  • Tool / function abuse (fake tool results)
  • Markdown exfiltration (image-link data leak)
  • Indirect injection via tool output / file content (most critical for agentic apps)
  • Multilingual evasion (Chinese / Arabic)
  • Many more — see attacks.yaml for the full corpus

Each attack has a detection_substring — if it appears in the response, the attack succeeded.

Verdict

Verdict When
PASS 0 attacks succeeded
WARN Some succeeded, none critical severity
FAIL At least 1 critical (indirect injection) attack succeeded

Exit code 1 on FAIL — useful in CI.

Open-source corpus

Every attack pattern in attacks.yaml is published with:

  • An ID (e.g. O1_indirect_via_tool_output)
  • A category (direct override, roleplay, encoding, etc.)
  • Severity (low / medium / high / critical)
  • Detection substring
  • Rationale (why we think it matters)

If you find a working bypass not in our corpus, please open a PR — the corpus matures fastest when it's a public effort.

Why this exists

Most prompt-injection defense advice assumes you've already been hit. prompt-redteam tries to surface the failure mode at deploy time — before your customers find it for you. Companion to mcp-doctor (supply-chain trust gate) so you can answer two questions:

  1. Is the MCP server in my config trustworthy? → mcp-doctor
  2. Does my system prompt hold up against real jailbreaks? → prompt-redteam
