An open-source agent engine called PlannerCritic, designed with a two-LLM architecture for planning and review, successfully resisted prompt injection attempts. The engine's design, which includes deterministic gates that parse the plan's abstract syntax tree rather than natural language, prevented adversarial goals from bypassing safety checks. Even when explicitly instructed to ignore safety protocols or disguise malicious actions as legitimate tasks, the engine's architectural safeguards and a secondary critic model focused on structural integrity, rather than intent, effectively blocked the injections.

IMPACT Demonstrates how architectural design, rather than just prompt engineering, can create more robust and secure LLM-based agent systems.
RANK_REASON The article describes the successful testing of a specific open-source agent engine's security features against prompt injection, detailing its architecture and the outcomes of adversarial tests.
