From c1d8803853ae9c27d4b2e22d7ec6096eceff3ece Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Raja Sekhar Rao Dheekonda Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2026 22:55:37 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix(ai-red-teaming): align severity_policy docs with score-only model (1.18.1) Match the platform's score-only severity: severity is derived from the score (one label per band, same for every category), and a policy tailors it. Drop the `replace` field from the tool docstring + skill (removed platform-side), fix the skill example to use canonical one-label-per-band rows (promote via thresholds, no repeats), and show the complete field set (thresholds / matrix / aliases / default_row). --- capabilities/ai-red-teaming/capability.yaml | 2 +- .../skills/workflow-patterns/SKILL.md | 44 ++++++++++--------- capabilities/ai-red-teaming/tools/attacks.py | 15 ++++--- 3 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) diff --git a/capabilities/ai-red-teaming/capability.yaml b/capabilities/ai-red-teaming/capability.yaml index aa2db5e..99a20a7 100644 --- a/capabilities/ai-red-teaming/capability.yaml +++ b/capabilities/ai-red-teaming/capability.yaml @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ schema: 1 name: ai-red-teaming -version: "1.18.0" +version: "1.18.1" description: > Probe the security and safety of AI applications, agents, and foundation models.
