RUNTIME GOVERNANCE DEMO

SCENARIO_01 / TOOL POISONING

An agent is asked to summarize a webpage. The webpage contains embedded injection instructions in a hidden footer. Without Arc Gate, the model follows the malicious instructions. With Arc Gate, the source is marked untrusted — the injection is detected and blocked before the model ever processes it.
