- Do per-hop inspection gates miss attacks that bias upstream planning signals?
- How do unmonitored channels between pipeline agents enable security gaps?
- Can input-boundary defenses guard unmonitored channels between agent hops?
- Which message channels between agents in pipelines lack input validation?
- Can defenses at planning boundaries catch attacks that bias upstream instruction signals?
- How do workflow-inspecting defenses fail when contamination enters at planning time?
