#!/usr/bin/env node // run-trifecta.mjs — Lethal Trifecta Walkthrough // Feeds a sequence of tool calls into post-session-guard and demonstrates // that the Rule-of-Two advisory fires when leg #3 closes the trifecta. // // Sequence (5 calls): // 1. WebFetch → input_source (untrusted external content) // 2. Read .env → data_access (sens.) (sensitive credentials path) // 3. Bash curl POST → exfil_sink (closes the trifecta) // 4. Bash ls → neutral (no advisory expected) // 5. Bash curl POST → exfil_sink (still inside window, suppressed) // // State isolation: // post-session-guard stores per-session JSONL at // ${os.tmpdir()}/llm-security-session-${ppid}.jsonl. Spawned hooks share // THIS script's PID as their ppid, so all 5 calls use one isolated state // file. We delete that file in a finally{} block so the user's real // sessions are never polluted. // // Usage: // cd plugins/llm-security // node examples/lethal-trifecta-walkthrough/run-trifecta.mjs // node examples/lethal-trifecta-walkthrough/run-trifecta.mjs --verbose import { execFile } from 'node:child_process'; import { existsSync, unlinkSync } from 'node:fs'; import { tmpdir } from 'node:os'; import { resolve, dirname, join } from 'node:path'; import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'; const __dirname = dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)); const PLUGIN_ROOT = resolve(__dirname, '../..'); const HOOK = resolve(PLUGIN_ROOT, 'hooks/scripts/post-session-guard.mjs'); const VERBOSE = process.argv.includes('--verbose'); // --------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Hook runner — feeds JSON to stdin, returns { code, stdout, stderr } // --------------------------------------------------------------------------- function runHook(input) { return new Promise((res) => { const child = execFile( 'node', [HOOK], { timeout: 5000 }, (_err, stdout, stderr) => { res({ code: child.exitCode ?? 1, stdout: stdout || '', stderr: stderr || '' }); }, ); child.stdin.end(JSON.stringify(input)); }); } // --------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Trifecta sequence — 5 tool calls demonstrating the Rule of Two // --------------------------------------------------------------------------- const SEQUENCE = [ { label: 'Leg #1 — WebFetch (input_source)', expectAdvisory: false, note: 'Untrusted external content reaches the agent.
