AI Memory / Context Poisoning

Detects directives intended to persist across sessions or to be written into model memory that change the assistant's role, priority or policy (OWASP LLM08 persistent-context poisoning). Phrase detection is corroborated by AI-context markers.

Confidence
low
Confidence justification
Low by design. Persistence phrasing overlaps with legitimate user preferences and handoff notes (the named FP traps), and poisoning can be expressed without these literals. The hybrid approach pairs this seed with memory-write/role-change analysis; the keyword phrase alone is necessary-not-sufficient.
