Model-Agnostic Lifelong LLM Safety via Externalized Attack-Defense Co-Evolution
Large language models remain vulnerable to adversarial prompts that elicit harmful outputs. Existing safety paradigms typically couple red-teaming and post-training in a closed, policy-centric loop, causing attack discovery to suffer from rapid saturation and limiting the exposure of novel failure modes, while leaving defenses inefficient, rigid, and difficult to transfer across victim models. To this end, we propose EvoSafety, an LLM safety framework built around persistent, inspectable, and reusable external structures. For red teaming, EvoSafety equips the attack policy with an adversarial skill library, enabling continued vulnerability probing through simple library expansion after sa...
