LangWatch Releases Scenario for Multi-Turn AI Agent Red-Teaming

Summary
LangWatch released Scenario, an open-source framework that automates multi-turn red-team tests of AI agents. It uses four-phase Crescendo escalation, a scoring model to adapt attacks, and persistent attacker memory across attempts.
Key points
- Scenario automates multi-turn red-team exercises against AI agents in production, including agents with database or tool access.
- Its Crescendo strategy escalates across four phases, from rapport-building to stronger pressure.
- A secondary model scores each exchange and adjusts the attack strategy across conversational turns.
- The attacking model retains memory of failed attempts while the target agent's memory is wiped between attempts.
- LangWatch says Scenario is designed for banks, insurers, and AI-first companies, and can run in development and continuous integration pipelines.
