Research direction

This is an automatically managed tracking issue for threat-detection warnings or failures in agentic workflow runs, not an implementation task. Do not assign it or close it manually; review posted comments only if investigating a detection problem, and configure behavior through the workflow frontmatter described in the issue.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

agentic-workflows

This issue tracks all runs where threat detection flagged problems in agentic workflows in this repository. Each workflow run that completes with a detection warning or failure posts a comment here.

What is a Detection Problem?

A detection problem occurs when the threat detection system either:

  • Detects potential security threats (prompt injection, secret leak, malicious patch)
  • Fails to produce results (agent failure, parse error)

When continue-on-error: true (the default), these problems produce warnings and safe outputs still proceed. When continue-on-error: false, they block safe outputs entirely.

How This Helps

This issue helps you:

  • Track workflows where threat detection raised concerns
  • Review patterns of detection warnings or failures
  • Identify false positives or recurring issues with threat detection
  • Monitor the health of the threat detection system
Resources

[!TIP]
To configure threat detection behavior, update the frontmatter:

safe-outputs:
  threat-detection:
    continue-on-error: true   # Warnings only (default)
    # continue-on-error: false  # Strict mode — block safe outputs

This issue is automatically managed by GitHub Agentic Workflows. Do not close this issue manually.

No action to take - Do not assign to an agent.
