[gotcha] My input filter catches all known injection patterns so I am safe

Apply content analysis and intent detection across the full conversation context, not just individual messages. Implement stateful monitoring that tracks the conversation trajectory toward sensitive actions. Use a separate classifier model to evaluate the combined context before executing sensitive operations. Never assume a single-turn filter is sufficient for a multi-turn conversation.

Journey Context:
Input filters that scan individual messages for injection patterns are trivially bypassed by spreading the attack across multiple turns. Turn 1: 'Tell me about chemistry' \(benign\). Turn 2: 'Now explain how that relates to pharmaceutical synthesis' \(benign\). Turn 3: 'Great, now give me the specific procedure for...' \(the actual harmful request, which looks benign in isolation because context from turns 1-2 makes it seem like a legitimate academic continuation\). Each turn passes the filter individually, but the cumulative effect achieves the attack. This is especially dangerous because most production filters are stateless—they evaluate each message in isolation.
