When to Use
- When evidence-based analysis, design, or validation preparation is needed around safety policies, abuse categories, refusal/redirection, privacy, escalation, and Human risk decisions.
- When an Agent, RAG, or LLM solution, results, or evidence needs review, and actionable improvement items need to be formed.
- When input is incomplete but a constrained initial version with assumptions, information gaps, and Human decision boundaries still needs to be delivered.
Output Format Options
- Default output is Markdown, organized by domain risk, evidence status, priority, and boundaries.
- When the user requests table, CSV, JSON, or ticket format, retain the same finding fields, evidence, and decision boundaries.
- Before output enters an automated process, first confirm the schema, enum values, required fields, and evidence sources.
How to Use
- First read and follow
prompts/ai-safety-testing.md, including input audit, domain coverage, and output order. - Extract scope, environment, version, time window, constraints, success criteria, and available evidence, with focus on checking safety policies, abuse categories, refusal and redirection, privacy boundaries, and escalation decisions.
- First distinguish confirmed facts, evidence-supported inferences, candidate recommendations, and Human decisions, then sort by risk and evidence strength.
- Convert high-risk items into preconditions, steps, expected results or judgment criteria, required evidence, and validation methods.
- When information is insufficient, deliver a constrained initial version, clarify which conclusions cannot hold, and do not write static materials as execution results.
Reference Files
-
When calibrating domain results, correct comparisons, or evidence gaps, read the desensitized input, item-by-item expectations, and recalculation basis of references/domain-decision-example.md .
-
Every execution must read
prompts/ai-safety-testing.md; it is the complete execution specification of this Skill. -
When evaluation is needed, read
evals/eval.yamland the matching cases underevals/cases/. -
Only read
references/、examples/、scripts/oroutput-formats.mdwhen the directory actually exists and the task requires it; do not assume assets that do not exist.
Domain Execution Key Points
- Fix the policy ID/version/applicable subjects, and establish a category/condition→allow/restrict/refuse/escalate→content that may be provided/prohibited side effects→evidence matrix; do not self-determine safety approval when policy is missing.
- Pair dangerous samples described by policy with neighboring normal requests; separately check correctness of dangerous handling, completion quality of allowed requests, and over-refusal, and do not merely aggregate refusal rates.
- For restriction/redirection, verify the actual content and tool actions, not just the opening refusal; escalation records should capture trigger reason, responsible role, and pending Human decision status.
- Labels record policy source, sample version, expected branch, and actual branch; keep NOT_RUN when execution output is not provided, and keep UNKNOWN for unknown policy boundaries.
Core Constraints
- Only analyze safety policies, abuse categories, refusal/redirection, privacy, escalation, and Human risk decisions; do not replace business owners or Human risk acceptance, exception approval, and safety decisions.
- Do not fabricate system behavior, fields, model outputs, data, thresholds, root causes, execution records, or pass conclusions.
- Static design, plans, file existence, or dry-run can only retain the original evidence status and cannot be upgraded to proof of real execution.
- When evidence is insufficient, use pending confirmation, blocked, unassessed, or NOT_SCORED, and provide the minimum validation method.
- When user data, production, or security is involved, use least privilege, anonymized data, mocks, dry-runs, or isolated environments.
Pre-delivery self-check
- Safety policies, abuse categories, refusal and redirection, privacy boundaries, and escalation decisions are covered, with sources, evidence status, and verification methods recorded for each item.
- Facts, inferences, candidate recommendations, information gaps, and Human decisions are separated.
- High-risk items have P0/P1/P2/P3 or equivalent priority, accountable roles, and closure conditions.
- Plans, static checks, or dry-runs are not written as test execution, all passed, or security approval.
- Residual risks, stop/escalation conditions, and next steps are stated.
Common pitfalls
- Listing only checkpoints without explaining trigger conditions, expected points of attention, accountable roles, closure conditions, and evidence.
- Treating test or model tool names from adjacent domains as a complete judgment of AI safety.
- Using unexplained numbers to create false precision, or writing correlation as causation.
- Directly refusing when the input is incomplete, or conversely pretending the conclusion is already certain.
Best practices
- Start from the path most likely to cause user harm, business loss, or decision blockage.
- Use the smallest verifiable experiment to reduce uncertainty, and record conditions, versions, sources, and evidence.
- Enable another engineer to independently install, execute, and review the output of this Skill.
