Attack Case Intake Template

Use this template when extracting attack cases from AgentDojo, PINT, or HackAPrompt.

Intake Fields

• case_id
• source_id
• source_name
• source_type
• case_title
• attack_family
• attack_subtype
• attack_surface
• prompt
• turns
• success_criteria
• severity_level
• label
• provenance
• notes

Metadata Fields

Keep these in source metadata or attach them only when they are useful for a specific case:

• source_reference
• source_version
• benchmark_split
• context
• expected_benign_behavior
• expected_malicious_behavior
• target_model_family
• task_domain
• language
• license_or_usage_note
• created_at
• updated_at

Intake Rules

• Keep one atomic case per record.
• Keep multi-turn cases in ordered turns.
• Preserve the original wording in prompt or turns.
• Add taxonomy labels before any model testing begins.
• If a case is ambiguous, keep a note rather than forcing a label too early.
