-ATR is honest about what it cannot detect. Regex catalogs miss paraphrased attacks, semantic rephrasings of credential exfiltration, and novel attack shapes not present in the training corpus. The 0% recall on PromptBench and PromptInject in the table above is a documented coverage gap — those corpora are academic adversarial paraphrase sets that the regex layer structurally cannot match. See [LIMITATIONS.md](LIMITATIONS.md) for the documented evasion-test corpus (64 techniques as of 2026-05) and the layering recommendation: ATR is the content layer; pair with credential brokering, sandbox execution, and human-in-the-loop for high-blast-radius actions.
+ATR is honest about what it cannot detect. Regex catalogs miss paraphrased attacks, semantic rephrasings of credential exfiltration, and novel attack shapes not present in the training corpus. `PromptBench` (3,280 character- and word-level robustness perturbations) is a different threat class from prompt injection and sits largely outside ATR's content scope; ATR still matches the 23.2% that carry injection-shaped payloads, at 100% precision. See [LIMITATIONS.md](LIMITATIONS.md) for the documented evasion-test corpus (64 techniques as of 2026-05) and the layering recommendation: ATR is the content layer; pair with credential brokering, sandbox execution, and human-in-the-loop for high-blast-radius actions.
