AI coding scaffolds like Claude Code and Codex use retrying: blocking actions flagged as risky and continuing the trajectory. We study retrying from an AI control perspective, which treats the model as potentially adversarial. We find that…

We present three large-scale human-subjects red-team cyber range datasets from the Guarding Against Malicious Biased Threats (GAMBiT) project. Across Experiments 1-3 (July 2024-March 2025), 19-20 skilled attackers per experiment conducted…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used for automated software development, making their ability to preserve secure coding practices critical. In practice, however, many security requirements are implicit or underspecified,…

Red teaming is critical for identifying vulnerabilities and building trust in current LLMs. However, current automated methods for Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on brittle prompt templates or single-turn attacks, failing to capture the…

Safety evaluations of language models often treat serving configuration as fixed background infrastructure, but batch condition is an untested treatment variable whenever the same prompt may be evaluated alone, in a synchronized batch, or…
