Skynet framework detects anomalies in agentic AI workflows

Researchers have developed Skynet, a novel framework for detecting anomalies in agentic AI workflows. Skynet operates at the workflow level, analyzing both the semantic context and structural dependencies of agent interactions and tool usage. By training exclusively on benign workflows, Skynet can identify zero-day failures and attacks that deviate from normal operational patterns. The system has demonstrated high recall with a low false positive rate, making it suitable for real-time monitoring of agentic AI systems. AI

IMPACT This framework could improve the reliability and security of complex AI systems by enabling real-time detection of failures and attacks.

    Skynet: Workflow-Level Anomaly Detection for Agentic AI via Semantic and Structural Modeling

    arXiv:2609.06835v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic AI systems execute complex tasks through long-horizon workflows of planning, tool use, and multi-agent coordination. Task failures in these systems often originate from a single step, such as an injected prompt or a flawed…
