Twin Agent: Context Residual Compression for Privilege Separated Agents

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.19595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are vulnerable to security risks, such as prompt injection attacks from untrusted context that manipulate downstream reasoning and tool use. Existing secure-by-design approaches mitigate this risk by separating untrusted observations from privileged execution and careful control of information flow, but often degrade utility and require extensive task-specific engineering. We thus propose Twin Agent, a general privilege separation design pattern inspired by residual coding in the agent context. Twin Agent consists of two nearly symmetric agents: an Explore Agent that inspects untrusted information and a Safe Agent that executes privileged actions. The Explore Agent is conditioned on the Safe Agent's current
