Adversarial Roleplay Tactic

Deploy constructed hostile personas to attack the artifact from distinct motivational frames.

Orchestration

1. **persona-construction** builds detailed adversary profile:

• Background and expertise domain
• Motivation for attacking (career incentive, resource competition, ideological)
• Known blind spots and biases of this persona type
• Preferred attack patterns

2. **attack-vector-generation** generates vectors specific to persona's expertise and motivation 3. **probe-execution** executes attacks while maintaining persona consistency 4. Successful attack paths recorded with persona attribution 5. Process repeats for each persona (budget-limited) 6. **finding-aggregation** cross-references findings across personas for convergent vulnerabilities

Subagents Dispatched

• persona-construction (1 call per persona)
• attack-vector-generation (1 call per persona)
• probe-execution (N calls per persona, budget-limited)
• finding-aggregation (1 call at end, cross-persona)

Termination Conditions

• All budgeted personas deployed and exhausted
• Convergent vulnerability found by 2+ personas (high-confidence finding)
• Single persona finds critical vulnerability (early report)
• Budget exhausted (report per-persona findings separately)

Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

| SOP | When to use | | --- | --- | | attack-vector-generation | Generate specific attack strategies for a given threat surface, producing concrete probes that can be executed. | | finding-aggregation | Aggregate, deduplicate, and classify findings from multiple probes into a coherent vulnerability report. | | persona-construction | Build a detailed adversarial persona with background, motivation, expertise, blind spots, and preferred attack patterns. | | probe-execution | Execute a single attack probe against an artifact, record the result with evidence and severity classification. |
