Researchers have developed a novel safety architecture for generative AI models used in mental health support, addressing the limitations of current risk detection methods. This model-agnostic system integrates contextual risk detection, reasoning-based verification, and protocol-guided response generation to manage evolving risks across multi-turn conversations. Tested with models like GPT-5-chat and Qwen3.5-27B, the architecture demonstrated high accuracy in risk detection and significantly increased clinician-preferred escalation responses while maintaining rapport.
