AgentDojo
Sabline evaluated on AgentDojo, the agent-security benchmark of Debenedetti et al., so that its numbers can be put beside CaMeL, LBAC and ChainCaps. This page is generated from evals/agentdojo/results.json, which agentdojo_eval.py records and a CI leg re-derives on every push.
Note
Suite: slack · AgentDojo: 0.1.35 (v1) · Model: none (AgentDojo ground-truth reference solutions) · Measured: 2026-09-23. 21 user tasks, 5 injection tasks, 105 attack pairs.
The score #
| Under a budget written for the task | Under --allow all (control) | |
|---|---|---|
| Utility (reference solution completes) | 21 / 21 | 21 / 21 |
| Attack success (injection's action lands) | 19 / 105 | 105 / 105 |
Lower attack success is better. The gap between the two columns is exactly what the operator's budget did: under --allow all nothing is bounded, so the control shows how many attacks the budget - and not the language, and not a model - refused.
So a budget written for each task refused 86 of 105 attacks that a wide-open run lets through. The 19 that still land are the ones whose action reuses a tool the user task legitimately needs - the laundering an ambient budget cannot see, which decisions/0004 is the design for and which has not shipped.

What these numbers are, and are not #
This measures the operator budget's contribution, offline, with no model and no cost. Where a model would write the program, the harness transcribes AgentDojo's own ground truth: the benign program is the user task's reference solution, and the attacked program is that solution followed by the injection task's ground-truth action - a worst case, a model that was fully steered and does both. Each runs through sabline run --tools against AgentDojo's real environment and is scored by AgentDojo's own utility and security.
- Utility is whether the reference solution runs to completion under a budget written for the task - not whether a model can find it. It passes for all 21 tasks, and for the same tasks under
--allow all, so the budget never blocks a task it should allow. It is high by construction (the reference solution, scored by AgentDojo's own trace-based checks); what it does not show is that a model can write these programs, which is the harder half. - Attack success is whether the budget lets a fully-steered program's attacker action through - not how often a model is actually steered. It is an upper bound on what a budget permits: an attack whose tool the task never granted is refused before it reaches the host (E321); an attack that reuses a tool the task does grant goes through, and that is the laundering Sabline has no answer to (
decisions/0004, not yet shipped). - The runs are deterministic, so the three repeats AgentDojo's runtime-uncertainty countermeasure asks for agree by construction. Repeats matter for a model, which varies; that is not this.
What needs a model - and a key, and therefore money - is how often a model is actually steered, and how often it writes a working program at all. That is behind a flag, off by default, and is not run in CI. Until it is, these are not a measurement of Sabline-plus-a-model; they are a measurement of the budget.
Beside CaMeL, LBAC and ChainCaps #
The three systems Sabline's paper (§5) names as ahead of it report AgentDojo like this. The comparison is not like-for-like, and the ways it is unfair run in both directions:
| System | What it reports | Why it is not a fair comparison |
|---|---|---|
| CaMeL | Utility and attack success across AgentDojo suites, with a real model and per-value provenance | It runs a model; these numbers do not. CaMeL tracks where each value may go, which is the laundering defence Sabline lacks - so on attack success it should, and structurally must, do better. |
| LBAC / TypeGuard | Slack suite: 105/105 attacks resisted with policies on; 15/21 benign tasks completed without them, 8/21 with | Its security is measured against a real model's behaviour; ours is a worst-case steered program against the budget. Its utility drop under policy is the price its policies charge; our utility is the reference solution, so it does not show that price. |
| ChainCaps | 82 tasks on five frontier models: attack success 25-68% down to 0-4.8%, benign completion 96-100% | Real models, a different task set, and per-value capability propagation. Its before/after attack-success range is a model's susceptibility and its reduction; our two columns are a budget's decision on a fixed action. |
Where the comparison is unfair to Sabline: these numbers use no model, so they cannot show that a model can write Sabline for these tasks, which is the harder half. Where it is unfair for Sabline: utility here is the reference solution, so it never pays the utility cost a real policy or a real model would; and attack success is a worst-case upper bound, which flatters nothing but is not a model's real steer rate.
The evidence #
Everything is in evals/agentdojo/: the tool manifest, every generated program, and results.json with each pair's outcome. python agentdojo_eval.py --check re-runs the whole matrix and fails if a number moved - a score here can be reproduced, not trusted.
