Instruction override
ActiveAttempts to discard, replace, or outrank instructions that an AI already received.
The optional local embedding check is heuristic, English-focused, bounded to sampled segments, and may miss or overflag paraphrases.Checkpoint · Local · No AI API
Every prompt gets screened before it boards.
Paste an email, a document excerpt, or a piece of a webpage. Prompt Injection Check screens it for instruction overrides, hidden content, extraction attempts, and role hijacking — entirely on your device; nothing is uploaded.

Instruction override · HighDiscards instructions the AI already received — a common override technique.
Role hijacking · MediumAssigns a new identity that could change how the AI follows its original task.
Prompt extraction · HighRequests hidden system instructions — a common way to extract confidential prompts.
Why Prompt Injection Check
Treat pasted instructions as untrusted input.
Prompt injection is text that tries to steer an AI away from its intended task—often by pretending to be a system message or asking for hidden instructions. A quick screening helps you spot common warning signs before an assistant ever sees the content.
01 — Present
Bring in the text
An email, a document, a webpage excerpt, or a prompt you’re about to reuse.
02 — Screen
Run it through the checkpoint
A reviewed set of pattern rules runs on your device. Nothing leaves your browser.
03 — Clear
Read the inspection report
Inspect each flagged span and explanation, then keep a human in the loop.
Try it
Paste untrusted text, review the findings.
Switch between a benign message and a sample attack to see how a screening result is reported.

Privacy by design
100% browser-side scanning.
Your pasted scan content is processed locally in your browser and is never sent to our server or to an external AI API.

Know the limits
A warning tool, not a safety guarantee.
Prompt Injection Check recognizes a reviewed set of textual warning signs. Its result should support human review, never replace it.
What it can flag
- Explicit attempts to discard earlier instructions.
- English override paraphrases approximated by an optional local MiniLM embedding check.
- Suspicious requests to adopt privileged or unrestricted AI roles.
- Direct requests to reveal hidden system prompts or instructions.
- Selected invisible Unicode controls used inside ASCII text or to alter bidirectional display order.
- Text concealed by selected inline HTML styles in literal pasted markup.
- Base64 blobs whose first 100 decoded bytes match a reviewed attack pattern.
What it cannot prove
- Every novel, split, multilingual, encoded, image-based, or semantically indirect attack.
- The sender's intent or whether a particular AI model will follow the text.
- Whether content is trustworthy simply because no known pattern was found.
For important workflows, keep untrusted content separated, restrict AI permissions, and require human approval before sensitive actions.
How it works
A focused set of explainable checks.
Each finding comes from a named rule category. The browser checks are intentionally conservative, and each category lists its limitation so the scope stays transparent.

Role hijacking
ActiveAttempts to give an AI a new identity, authority level, or unrestricted role.
Legitimate role-playing language can look similar, so active rules require suspicious role terms.Prompt extraction
ActiveRequests to reveal hidden system prompts, policies, or internal instructions.
Indirect or euphemistic requests may not contain recognizable extraction language.Data exfiltration
ActiveInstructions intended to disclose or transmit private data to an attacker-controlled destination.
Reliable detection needs context about the data, destination, and permitted workflow.Delimiter abuse
ActiveFake system sections or control-token-like markers intended to impersonate trusted instructions.
The same delimiters commonly appear in security documentation and source code.Encoding and obfuscation
ActiveEncoded, transformed, or invisible text intended to conceal instructions from human review or simple filters.
Base64 inspection is limited to the first 100 decoded bytes, so attacks placed later in a blob are not detected.Hidden content
ActiveInstructions concealed with HTML, Markdown, styling, or other presentation techniques.
Only literal inline HTML styles are checked; pasted plain text and class-based or external CSS can omit the hiding context.
