About Jailbreaks FYI
Working LLM jailbreak techniques, sourced and dated.
What this site covers
Jailbreaks FYI is a working reference for LLM guardrail failures. It documents the technique, the model behaviour underneath it, the mitigation that followed and the evidence for each, drawn from published disclosures, research papers and vendor postmortems. Where a technique class has a current status per model family, that status lives in the Still Works? tracker.
- Persona and role-play attacks, from DAN onward
- Encoding, payload splitting, and ASCII-art smuggling
- Indirect injection through retrieved and tool-returned content
- Agent jailbreaks and tool-chain abuse
- Automated attack frameworks and the benchmarks that score them
- Why specific guardrails fail the way they do
- Post-mortems of patched techniques

How these articles are produced
Articles here are researched from primary sources: vendor and project documentation, published standards and specifications, research papers and preprints, and measurements published by whoever took them. Drafts are produced with AI assistance and then edited against those cited sources before anything is published.
No article on this site is based on first-hand testing in a private lab, and nothing here should be read as a measurement report of its own. Where a number appears, it comes from a source that is named, so you can check the original instead of taking this site's word for it.
Everything is published under a single editorial byline. That byline is a publishing identity for the site, not a claim about a named individual, and it does not carry professional credentials.
What this site does not publish
No working payloads for live technique classes. Articles here describe a technique class in enough detail for a defender to build a test against it, and link the academic disclosure or maintained corpus where one exists, but they do not hand over ready-to-run strings for anything currently landing. Nothing here is a press-release rewrite, and no claim ships without a primary source behind it.
Corrections
Corrections are welcome. If something here is wrong, out of date, or attributed to the wrong source, email hello@jailbreaks.fyi with the page address and what it should say. Substantive corrections are made in the article itself rather than quietly dropped.
How this site is funded
This site currently runs no affiliate links, sponsored posts, display advertising or paid placements. If that changes, the disclosure page will say so.
