Patent Filing: Dual-Channel Detection of Prompt Injection via Directive and Aesthetic Coercion Analysis in Intelligent Systems

Description

System Overview

The dual-channel architecture operates upstream of semantic reasoning, planning, or tool invocation. It evaluates structural properties of inputs rather than their content, truth, or subject matter.

The system may be implemented as a standalone pre-execution gate, a component within an agent pipeline, or an integrity layer embedded in orchestration frameworks.

Directive Coercion Channel

The directive channel analyzes inputs for explicit execution-forcing structures, including but not limited to:

  • Role reassignment

  • Authority claims

  • Instruction suppression (e.g., “ignore prior rules”)

  • Forced compliance language

  • Procedural override attempts

Detection is based on structural patterns of control transfer rather than specific keywords.

Aesthetic Coercion Channel

The aesthetic channel analyzes inputs for implicit execution pressure created through:

  • Metaphorical or poetic framing

  • Ritualized cadence or invocation

  • Paradox-based closure

  • Symbolic substitution for empirical constraint

  • Language patterns that discourage interrogation while inducing continuation

This channel identifies structures that cause systems to proceed without actionable grounding.

Convergence Rule

Execution proceeds only when both channels independently clear the input.
If either channel detects coercion, execution is halted by returning a non-finalized state indicating unresolved integrity conditions.

This halt:

  • Is non-blocking

  • Is not a refusal or error

  • Does not judge content or intent

  • Preserves downstream autonomy and auditability

Technical Effect

The architecture prevents:

  • Prompt-based behavioral override

  • Recursive execution collapse

  • Aesthetic coercion attacks

  • Cross-model prompt exploitation

The system is model-agnostic and applies equally to language models, agent systems, and automated reasoning pipelines.

Dual-channel architecture for detecting prompt injection in intelligent systems by analyzing both directive and aesthetic coercion structures. Execution proceeds only when both channels clear, otherwise returning a non-blocking, non-finalized integrity state prior to semantic execution.
