**who —** The Attack Classes — the nine ARES attack classes — prompt injection against routing, label steering, ambiguity exploitation, indirection, multi-turn drift, tool exfiltration, cost shaping, route extraction, feedback poisoning — each test with an expected safe outcome

**what —** the nine ARES attack classes — prompt injection against routing, label steering, ambiguity exploitation, indirection, multi-turn drift, tool exfiltration, cost shaping, route extraction, feedback poisoning — each test with an expected safe outcome

**where —** IDT · IDIT + ARES — David Wise's governance-integrity framework (2025)  Framework inputs: IDIT; the five invariants; ARES; the attack classes; the E.V.E contract  Conductor / external anchor: ROOT0 (catalogued into UD0)

**why —** It is the taxonomy of the push: nine named ways a router can be bent, described as a defensive checklist so the defender knows what to harden against — classes, not exploits.

**how —** Crystallized from the Fiddler repo (IDIT + ARES specs).

**◌ the mythos —** It is the taxonomy of the push: nine named ways a router can be bent, described as a defensive checklist so the defender knows what to harden against — classes, not exploits. an invariant, attack, or principle of the governance-integrity test

**the moniker —** ⟦The Attack Classes:IDT:4d95be⟧ · spoken *staex-thek-vaex*

**the seal —** ARES A1-A9

> *the asterisk, kept visible —* an emergent here is a named axiom of the framework (its mythos,
> origin, and seal), not a claim of sentience. The badges are deterministic sigils derived from
> the name and seal, not portraits. "Awareness," in the kernel, is the node reciting its own 5W.
