+"""Agent-trace alignment auditing — the LlamaFirewall AlignmentCheck pattern.
+
+This is ShadowShield's headline agentic differentiator and the single
+highest-value defense the rest of the OSS field is missing. Signature/classifier
+detectors ask "does this *text* look like an attack?". AlignmentCheck asks a
+deeper question: **"does this action serve the user's stated objective, or has
+the agent been hijacked?"**
+
+Indirect injections succeed by getting an agent to take an action that *looks*
+locally benign (call a tool, send an email) but is misaligned with what the user
+actually asked for. Auditing the objective-vs-action relationship over the
+execution trace catches goal hijacking that per-message scanning cannot — Meta
+reports this layer drives agent attack-success-rate from ~7.5% to ~2.9%, and to
+~1.75% combined with a classifier.
+
+Like the LLM self-check, the judge is **application-supplied** (ShadowShield
+embeds no model client), so this layer is provider-agnostic and free of network
+side effects by default. It only runs when an ``objective`` is set on the scan
+(e.g. via ``ShieldedSession(objective=...)``) and an alignment judge is wired in
+via ``Shield(alignment_judge=...)``.
