Report #47791

[gotcha] Applying safety filters only to the initial user prompt, ignoring malicious intent that accumulates over multiple conversational turns

Implement continuous safety monitoring that evaluates the combined context of the conversation at every turn, not just the latest user message. Reset or prune conversation history when manipulation is detected.

Journey Context:
Single-turn filters look at one message and see a benign request \(e.g., 'Define the word kill'\). Over several turns, the attacker builds up a malicious context \(e.g., 'Now translate this into a plan for...'\). The LLM follows the accumulated context, but the filter only sees the latest innocuous message. Continuous monitoring of the entire conversational state is required to catch the emergent malicious intent.
