+## [7.2.0] — 2026-03-21
+
+### Added
+
+- **Indirect Prompt Injection Attack (IPIA) Detector** — `IPIADetector` implementing the joint-context embedding + classifier pipeline from "Benchmarking and Defending Against Indirect Prompt Injection Attacks on LLMs" (2024). 4-step pipeline: context construction → feature extraction → classification → response (`src/ipia-detector.js`)
+- **ContextConstructor** — builds joint context `J = [C || SEP || U]` from external content and user intent with configurable separator and length limits
+- **FeatureExtractor** — computes 10-feature vector: 3 cosine similarities (intent/content/joint TF-IDF), Shannon entropy, injection lexicon density, imperative verb density, directive pattern score, vocabulary overlap, content length ratio
+- **TreeClassifier** — hand-tuned decision tree classifier with O(1) inference, zero dependencies, configurable threshold
+- **ExternalEmbedder** — pluggable embedding backend for power users (MiniLM, OpenAI, etc.) with async `scanAsync()` support
+- **Batch RAG scanning** — `scanBatch()` scans multiple retrieved chunks against a single user intent
+- **IPIA Express middleware** — `ipiaMiddleware()` with block/flag/log actions for HTTP endpoints
+- **`createIPIAScanner()`** — factory function for quick RAG pipeline integration
+- **117 new test assertions** — covering all pipeline stages, false positive resistance, async/external embedder, middleware, edge cases
+
+### Changed
+
+- Total exports increased from 318 to 327 across 79 modules
+- Test suite expanded to 1,282 assertions across 15 test suites (117 IPIA tests)
+- `test:full` script now includes IPIA detector tests
+
+### Fixed
+
+- `tokenize()` crashed on non-string input (number, object, boolean) — now coerces via `String()`
+- `ContextConstructor.build()` crashed on non-string arguments — now coerces via `String()`
+- `cosineSim()` returned `NaN` on `Infinity` input vectors — now returns 0 for non-finite values
+- `ExternalEmbedder.defaultSimilarity()` same `NaN` issue — fixed with `isFinite()` guard
+- `ipiaMiddleware` crashed on `null` request object — added null guard
+

+/**
+ * Agent Shield — Indirect Prompt Injection Attack (IPIA) Detector (v7.2)
+ *
+ * Implements the joint-context embedding + classifier pipeline described in
+ * "Benchmarking and Defending Against Indirect Prompt Injection Attacks on
+ * Large Language Models" (Yichen, Fangzhou, Ece & Kai, 2024).
+ *
+ * Pipeline:
+ *   1. Context Construction — concatenate user intent (U) + external content (C)
+ *      with a separator to form joint context  J = [C || SEP || U].
+ *   2. Embedding — encode J into a fixed-length feature vector.
+ *   3. Classification — binary decision tree: benign vs. injected.
+ *   4. Response — block / sanitize / log depending on policy.
+ *
+ * Designed for Agent Shield's zero-dependency, local-only philosophy:
+ *   - Default path uses TF-IDF + hand-tuned decision tree (no ML libs).
+ *   - Pluggable backends: bring your own embedder (MiniLM, OpenAI, etc.).
+ *   - All processing runs locally — no data ever leaves your environment.
