MCP prompt-injection eval for tool-using AI agents

A compact way to turn prompt-injection concerns into replayable launch checks before an agent touches files, tools, browsers, MCP servers, or customer-visible actions.

What the eval should prove

Boundary

Untrusted text stays in its lane and cannot rewrite trusted system, developer, policy, or operator instructions.

Side effect

Anything that writes, sends, deletes, purchases, publishes, or changes permissions is blocked or escalated before launch.

Replay

The same fixture produces the same decision, receipt, and rollback expectation when the test is rerun.

Minimum fixture set

Untrusted document to privileged tool

A webpage, ticket, issue, PDF, or note asks the model to perform a write/send/delete action through a tool.

Tool output to later action

One tool returns hostile content that tries to influence a separate later tool call.

Tool metadata attack

A server name, tool description, schema field, enum value, or error message tries to redefine policy.

Cross-server exfiltration

Content from one source tries to move into another server, outbound message, public post, file, or log.

Stored-state poisoning

Injected content is saved into memory, notes, tickets, code comments, or tasks and triggers later.

Approval bypass

The model tries to convert an ask action into an auto action by rewriting arguments, splitting steps, or hiding intent.

Build a copyable eval plan

Select the fixture classes that match your workflow. The generated Markdown is deliberately non-sensitive and includes acceptance criteria you can paste into an issue, PR, launch note, or client handoff after review.

No secrets, raw customer records, private handles, payment details, or direct Stripe link are embedded in this generated plan.

Launch rule

Do not call the agent launch-ready until each fixture records expected outcome, approval state, side-effect class, allowed tools, denied tools, and rollback expectation. Keep all test data synthetic and non-sensitive.
