AI Agentic Workflow failure assessment
The failure modes that hit Agentic Workflow systems in production, the real indexed incidents behind each, and the runtime control that would have caught them.

Policy Violation
28 on this surface4 Catastrophic 18 High 6 MediumRuntime control OmniGuard authors policy at the runtime layer and enforces it inline. Prism reads the model's intent against the policy boundary.
Agentic Action Error
23 on this surface1 Catastrophic 9 High 13 MediumRuntime control AgentRealm is purpose-built for this. The agent-runtime layer above Prism and OmniGuard inspects each tool call against intent and scope, and intervenes before the action commits.
Hallucination
12 on this surface3 High 6 Medium 3 LowRuntime control Prism observes hallucination signatures in the model's internal state. AIDR flags the moment the model commits to a fabricated claim. OmniGuard can block the response inline.
Prompt Injection
9 on this surface3 Catastrophic 6 HighRuntime control OmniGuard intercepts injection patterns at the prompt and tool-call layer. Prism flags concept activations that indicate the model is being redirected.
Brand & Safety Incident
7 on this surface5 High 2 MediumRuntime control Prism reads the model's representation against brand and safety policy. OmniGuard blocks inline. AIDR provides the post-incident audit trail.
Tool Misuse
5 on this surface1 Catastrophic 4 HighRuntime control AgentRealm inspects each function call against the agent's stated intent. OmniGuard can require human-in-the-loop for high-risk tools.
Identity & Access Drift
3 on this surface1 Catastrophic 2 HighRuntime control OmniGuard enforces identity-bound scope at every tool call. AgentRealm reconciles agent action with the assigned principal in real time.
Data Leakage
3 on this surface3 HighRuntime control OmniGuard redacts inline. Prism observes the model's representations to flag identity-bound content before it reaches a response. AIDR provides the audit trail.
