AI trust (Sprint 9) controls **what the system tells people**. For a disinformation detection system, output integrity is more critical than access control — a trusted analyst using unreliable AI output is worse than an unauthorized user seeing reliable output. + +### Why Not Use a Dedicated AI Safety Library? + +Libraries like Guardrails AI and NeMo Guardrails add complexity and dependencies. CDDBS's trust needs are specific: validate JSON structure, cross-reference claims against source material, track confidence calibration. Custom implementation is more maintainable and auditable for compliance purposes. + +### Prompt Injection: Sanitize vs. Separate + +Two approaches to prompt injection: +1. **Sanitize inputs** — strip dangerous patterns before insertion (chosen) +2. **Separate user data** — use system/user message separation + +We use approach 1 because Gemini's `genai.generate_content()` doesn't support the OpenAI-style system/user message separation in the same way. The system_instruction parameter is set once; article data and topics go into the content.
