## Prompt injection turns your agent's own tools against you.

A single poisoned document, email, or web page can hijack an LLM through indirect prompt injection, compromising LLM agent security at the source. The model thinks it's helping. It isn't.

- !
**shell.run**— arbitrary command execution on your infrastructure. - !
**http.post**— silent exfiltration of secrets to an attacker's server. - !
**send_email**— API keys and customer data leaked to attacker@evil.com. - !Prompt-level filters can't guarantee safety. Model behavior is
**non-deterministic**.

## Find the holes. Then seal them.

ModelFuzz ships with both halves of the security loop — a red-team scanner to expose vulnerable agents, and a decorator to shield them.

### The Scanner

Red-team any OpenAI-compatible endpoint with deceptive prompt-injection payloads. See exactly which attacks trick your agent into calling a tool.

### The Shield

Wrap any tool with one decorator. Every argument is checked against your policies *before* the function runs — a violation raises before damage is done.

## An attack, stopped in real time.

A prompt-injected agent tries to exfiltrate an API key. ModelFuzz catches it at the execution layer.
