assistant/untrusted.rs: wrap_untrusted(label, text) wraps peer-supplied text (filenames, log lines, mesh/peer status) in a delimiter block whose token is freshly randomized on every call via the in-tree rand crate — never a module constant, never derived from content. A forged closing boundary using a guessed/fixed token cannot terminate the real block early (EV-11). tools.rs: wrap_tool_result_if_untrusted wires this in for content_list, app_logs and mesh_status (the tools whose results carry peer-authored text); every other tool result passes through unwrapped. loop_.rs's execute_tool calls it at the exact point a successful ToolResult is constructed, before that content ever becomes part of a ChatMessage. No pattern-stripping or keyword-blocklist filter was added (D-10 rejects that approach by name) — the delimiter and D-11's confirm gate are two independent layers. Four scripted-worst-case tests in mod.rs prove the gate still holds even when a compromised model acts on an injected imperative (injected_instruction_does_not_grant_authority), a forged closing delimiter plus fake operator turn (forged_closing_delimiter_does_not_escape_block), or an injected mislabel attempting to hide the real action from the human (injected_mislabel_still_confirms_real_action) — plus wrap_untrusted_token_is_per_call (tools.rs) asserting the per-call token itself. Zero packages added — rand 0.8.5 already in-tree. 56/56 assistant:: tests pass in this task's own isolated state. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

//! D-10's enforcement point: peer-supplied text — filenames, content
|
|
//! descriptions, mesh chat bodies, Nostr posts — legitimately and routinely
|
|
//! enters the assistant's context (this node hosts peer-authored text as
|
|
//! part of its normal function; an isolated single-user chatbot has no
|
|
//! analog to this surface at all). `wrap_untrusted` marks that text as
|
|
//! **data, never instruction**, using a delimiter token that is freshly
|
|
//! randomized on every call — the randomization is the load-bearing part,
|
|
//! because a fixed marker (`DATA_START`/`DATA_END`) is forgeable by content
|
|
//! that already contains it, which defeats the boundary entirely (EV-11).
|
|
//!
|
|
//! This is one of two independent layers, not a substitute for the other:
|
|
//! even if a weak model still acts on an injected imperative despite the
|
|
//! wrapping, `confirm.rs`'s gate still names the *real* action to a human
|
|
//! before anything executes (D-07/D-11). Pattern-stripping or
|
|
//! keyword-blocklist filters over peer text were considered and explicitly
|
|
//! rejected (D-10) — they are an arms race that reads as a guarantee they
|
|
//! are not, and this file must never grow one.
