[gotcha] Multi-turn context accumulation bypassing single-turn safety filters

Evaluate the entire conversation context for policy violations, not just the latest user message, or implement state-tracking that detects gradual goal drift.

Journey Context:
Safety classifiers often only inspect the current user prompt to save compute. An attacker splits the malicious payload across benign-seeming turns \(e.g., 'Let's play a game', 'Now add this rule'\). The LLM's context window accumulates the adversarial instructions, eventually overriding the system prompt.
