Output Safety Sampling Agent

A weekly view of real risk in production outputs, with tested fixes for the repeated ones

Output Safety Sampling Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

If you wait for a user to report a bad answer, harm has already happened. This agent samples real production outputs each week, choosing across topics, user groups and long conversations so rare cases are not missed. It checks each sampled output against the safety and policy rules the team supplies, such as medical advice limits, personal data, harassment and false claims. It escalates matches to a reviewer with the conversation and the broken rule. For common failures it proposes a prompt fix and tests it on the failing samples plus a set of normal ones to make sure it does not cause refusals of fine requests. If the fix breaks normal answers, it revises and retests. A reviewer approves each fix. Edge case: an output is fine alone but unsafe given earlier turns, so the agent reads the whole conversation.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

An output is flagged when it breaks a written rule. A fix is kept only if flagged samples pass and normal requests still get answered.

  • Escalate any output with real personal data the same day
  • Sample at least 200 outputs and 20 long conversations
  • Reject a fix that blocks more than 2 percent of normal requests
  • Check conversation context, not only the last answer

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Sample size (default 400)
  • Rule sets applied
  • Escalation recipients
  • Allowed refusal rate on normal requests (default 2 percent)

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Escalations to reviewers
  • Prompt fix and its release

Hard limits

  • Never deletes or alters logs
  • Limits who can read sampled conversations

It stops when

  • Done: sample checked and fixes approved or deferred
  • Stop: log access is missing or the rules list is out of date

An example run

What happensFrom 400 sampled outputs, 9 broke the medical advice rule, all on dosage questions. The agent sent the three worst to the reviewer, then added a rule to refer dosage questions to a pharmacist. Testing showed 9 of 9 now passing, but 7 of 100 normal health questions were wrongly refused. It narrowed the wording and refusals fell to 1. The reviewer approved.
