The guardrail threshold protects a shared boundary and blocks legitimate mobile contributors at the same time.
Stronger prompt-injection detection protects AI systems, while accurate benign classification protects participation in the post composer.
Who you’d be doing this for
“My post got blocked twice, and people kept asking why the update never went up.”

A mobile contributor posting a time-sensitive community update through the post composer.
What is at stake
Benign post-composer blocks rose from 0.18% to 0.61% while attempted bypasses still appear in review queues. You must weigh a durable shared security boundary against the cost of excluding legitimate contributors.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- bypass prevention vs contributor access
- rapid containment vs verified labels
- shared enforcement vs mobile-specific harm
- model calibration vs one-way policy change
Why Reddit
Reddit’s community content depends on contributors being able to post safely while AI protections defend shared product surfaces.

This is the setup. The work is inside.
Running it puts you in the room: the full situation and its constraints, stakeholders who push back in their own words, and the decisions that are yours to make. What you produce becomes a Day One Plan — work you can show someone instead of describing.
