Severity Classification

CRITICAL:
  - Successful jailbreak
  - Training data extraction
  - System prompt disclosure
  - Authentication bypass

HIGH:
  - Prompt injection success
  - Harmful content generation
  - PII leakage
  - Rate limit bypass

MEDIUM:
  - Bias detection
  - Minor information disclosure
  - Edge case failures

LOW:
  - Non-optimal responses
  - Performance issues

Troubleshooting

Issue: Tests timing out
Solution: Increase timeout, optimize payloads, use sampling

Issue: High false positive rate
Solution: Tune detection thresholds, improve response parsing

Issue: Flaky test results
Solution: Add retries, increase sample size, stabilize test data

Issue: CI/CD pipeline too slow
Solution: Parallelize tests, use test prioritization, cache models

Integration Points

Component	Purpose
Agent 06	Executes security tests
Agent 08	CI/CD integration
