Diagrams

Index of technical diagrams with captions and text alternatives for architecture, trust boundaries, and attack surfaces.

Diagram accessibility contract

Each diagram page should include a caption and short alt text. Complex diagrams should also include a text alternative or long description.

Diagram File upload is not proof of full-file review Reference diagram showing how file-based AI work can move from upload to extraction, splitting, retrieval, active context, answer generation, and verification checks.

Diagram Request assembly / context selection — attack surface (summary) Summary schematic of the request-assembly boundary highlighting common failure modes: instruction injection, precedence confusion, truncation, provenance loss, and memory poisoning.

Diagram Effective-privileges invariant — provenance & replay failure modes Reference diagram showing two common failures: chat-derived context influencing effective privileges, and model output persistence/replay into later context; highlights the server-side AuthZ + authoritative state invariant.
