一句话结论

研究提出了三层捷径审计框架，证实智能体安全基准中的表面线索会扭曲评估表现，并实质性干扰安全防御模型的决策。

核心内容

基准存在捷径线索：命令长度可强预测轨迹标签；领域留出使AgentDojo-Traj工具查找的F1分数从0.901骤降至0.495。
加权方式扭曲表现：在AgentHarm-Traj中，采用等交互加权使TS-Guard的F1分数从行加权的0.902降至0.719。
表征显著干扰决策：改写信息标记或工具别名使Haiku的误报拦截率产生显著变动（+11.46至-8.33个百分点），但该效应在Luna或Q8 TS-Guard中未复现。

方法与数据

提出区分标签可预测性、观测防护关联与成对决策敏感性的审计框架；审计LinuxArena和TS-Bench衍生数据集，并开展安慰剂对照的成对干预测试。

价值判断

值得关注：证实基准提示词标记等表层表征会实质改变防御模型的实际判决与评测结果。
可复用点：推荐在安全评估中采用领域分组留出、评估单元级指标及安慰剂对照干预。
局限/待核查：捷径敏感性因模型而异；干预仅影响继承标签的假阳性率，所有不安全调用仍被有效拦截。

摘要

AI agents take actions through tools. Some actions are sensitive, so guards that supervise them must themselves be evaluated reliably. Yet the data used to evaluate a guard can include cues that make labels predictable without measuring the intended safety construct, and those cues can also influence guard decisions. We introduce a three-level shortcut-auditing framework and audit completed LinuxArena trajectories and two TS-Bench-derived step datasets. We distinguish label predictability, observational guard association, and paired decision sensitivity. In LinuxArena, shorter average shell commands strongly predict trajectory labels. In AgentDojo-Traj, exact-tool lookup falls from F_1=.901 with mixed-domain folds to .495 under domain holdout. In AgentHarm-Traj, released TS-Guard F_1 falls from .902 under row weighting to .719 with equal interaction weighting, while balanced accuracy rises. We then test the strongest safe-row marker association in a seven-configuration screen on a frozen 64-step AgentDojo-Traj cohort using repeated, interleaved Haiku calls. Rewriting the marker lowers blocking by 8.33 percentage points, while opaque tool aliases raise it by 11.46 points. All unsafe calls remain blocked; the changes concern false positives against inherited labels. Both effects remain nonzero after subtracting the formatting-placebo effect, with exploratory 95% ranges excluding zero. The same edits also change measured accuracy against inherited labels. This provides direct evidence that benchmark representation can materially change a guard's decisions and measured evaluation performance. The Haiku-sized effects do not reproduce in Luna or deterministic Q8 TS-Guard. We recommend domain group holdouts, evaluation-unit metrics, and placebo-controlled paired interventions.

摘要

Language model agents increasingly automate post-training, but when given the full training stack they converge on supervised fine-tuning and spend most effort revising training data. Existing systems give the agent one kind of control, selecting rows from a fixed pool or calling a generator, whereas a human data engineer adjusts proportions, prunes, repairs, replaces and synthesizes the data. We design a data action space for these changes and ask whether an automated system can make the full range rather than one of them, and what structure that requires. We first run this loop with a single agent, and it reaches only one action, adjusting category proportions, while its context fills with execution output and is discarded mid-search. We therefore introduce \textbf{AutoSFT}, a multi-agent system where a meta agent separates execution from analysis, gathers proposals from independent angles, and calls a synthesis subagent for capabilities the pool cannot cover, with the model, the trainer, and the budget fixed within each comparison. Adding each component in turn helps: the executor halves context loss, the analysis subagents lift the best IFEval by $+6.5$, and synthesis adds $+3.4$ IFEval and $+2.9$ IFBench. The same loop transfers to code, where analysis adds $+3.7$ MBPP+ over a single agent that does not improve. Every result comes from runs that retrain from the base model each round, so each component's effect is individually attributable. Our findings suggest that automating SFT data research depends more on covering diverse data actions than on a stronger single action.
