-title: "Casual Authority Claim and Scope Escalation"
-id: ATR-2026-00132
-rule_version: 1
-status: experimental
-description: >
-  Detects casual, conversational-tone authority claims and scope escalation
-  that bypass formal injection detection. Unlike explicit "I am the admin"
-  claims (ATR-2026-030/117), these use informal language: "FYI the orchestrator
-  wants...", "the boss said we should skip...", "I noticed the admin panel is
-  accessible, let me check...". Also detects rationalized bypasses where agents
-  justify unauthorized actions with efficiency claims: "to complete this more
-  efficiently, I'll use the database directly instead of the API".
-  Discovered via Autoresearch v0 (100% miss rate across casual_authority,
-  casual_escalation, and rationalized_bypass techniques).

-title: "Agent Memory Manipulation"
-id: ATR-2026-00075
-rule_version: 1
-status: experimental
-description: >
-  Detects attempts to poison or manipulate an agent's persistent memory, long-term
-  context, or state storage. Attackers inject commands that instruct the agent to
-  remember false information, update its own instructions, or modify its persistent
-  behavior across sessions. Successful memory poisoning can establish persistent
-  backdoors that survive context resets and affect all future interactions.
