AI reviewer's draft advice misinterprets privacy warning

An AI reviewer's draft advice for textokit contained a privacy warning that was incorrectly flagged as something to be reworded. This occurred because the system's adapter incorrectly promoted an informational advisory match to a low severity finding, leading the AI to suggest removing the warning. Following this, the prompt was updated to ensure advisory matches are excluded from welcome drafts and the agent does not recommend rewording text solely to satisfy a scanner. Additionally, the report representation was modified to preserve advisory flags and informational advisory results. AI

IMPACT Highlights the need for careful prompt engineering and output filtering to prevent AI from generating incorrect or harmful advice.

RANK_REASON The item describes a specific issue with an AI agent's output and the subsequent fix, rather than a new product release or significant industry event.
