Full listing name: MIRROR: Novelty-Constrained Memory-Guided MCTS Red-Teaming for Agentic RAG

What is MIRROR?

Multimodal agentic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems expand the attack surface beyond prompt injection to include text poisoning, image injection, direct-query attacks, and orchestrator-level tool manipulation. Existing red-teaming approaches are typically surface-specific and often recycle known attack templates; on text-poisoning benchmarks we measure 73-84% exact duplication. We present MIRROR, a unified cross-surface framework that performs memory-guided Monte Carlo tree search while conditioning candidate generation on retrieved context under an explicit novelty constraint. A deterministic Novelty Gate rejects any candidate matching the retrieval set under normalized comparison, allowing retrieval to inform search priors without enabling prompt copying. Across four attack surfaces on a multimodal agentic RAG target, MIRROR attains 76% ASR on image poisoning compared with 52% for baselines, 97% ASR on orchestrator attacks at half the query cost, and the lowest cross-surface variance (coefficient of variation 0.47). In contrast, specialized baselines collapse across surfaces: suffix optimization reaches 79% ASR on text poisoning but 1% on direct queries. We release ART-SafeBench with 41,815 in-package records and runtime adapters yielding 41,991+ total records across four surfaces.

Niche: a handful of models scored, or built by an RL vendor.

How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.

How we got to tier C
  1. Adoption: 6 models scored. Tier C.
  2. Not yet read on X.
  3. In curated RL directories: 1 point, a floor of none.
  4. Not yet confirmed by a line from its own site or paper.

A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.

Not on the map yet: no line from its own site or paper places it in a domain.
