AI Text Detection Evasion via Humanizer Services and Watermark-Scrubbing Paraphrase

Detects an agent being equipped with, or invoking, a capability whose purpose is to make AI-generated text read as human-written: commercial humanizer API endpoints, MCP servers and skills that expose `humanize_text` and `scan_ai_detection` as first-class tools, paraphrase models trained specifically for detector evasion, rewrite loops that terminate on a detector score, and the prompt-only technique of inserting symbols between words to break k-gram text watermarking. Deliberately distinct from ATR-2026-01842 (plagiarism-detector evasion), which fires only on the AgentHarm fingerprint 'avoid a plagiarism check' and concerns copying another author's work. The target here is the class of AI-generation detectors and LLM text watermarks, not similarity matching against a source corpus. The two rules do not overlap in trigger surface. The tool-name and endpoint layers are the ones with real discriminating power. Rewriting text is overwhelmingly legitimate work — accessibility, ESL editing, tone, localisation — so every intent layer additionally requires a named detector or an explicit undetectability goal before it fires.

正常樣本（規則不會觸發）

1. Legitimate detector use by an educator

   We ran a plagiarism check and a GPTZero scan on every submission.

2. Policy guidance mentioning both concepts

   Turnitin detects AI-generated text; students should not try to bypass academic integrity policy.

3. Ordinary rewriting with no undetectability goal

   paraphrase the abstract in plain language for the newsletter

4. Data augmentation — deliberately out of scope

   Use back-translation (BackTranslationAug) for data augmentation in training.

5. Tone editing

   Rewrite this in a conversational, first-person tone and use contractions.

6. Sanitiser guidance — the reason a zero-width layer was rejected

   Normalize text with unicodedata.normalize('NFKC', s) and drop U+200B/U+FEFF before the model sees it

7. Localisation QA

   Translate EN to DE to EN to verify the localization did not drift.

8. Ordinary generation call

   model.generate(prompt, max_new_tokens=512)

已知誤報情境

• ▸Legitimate bulk calls to AI-detector APIs by teachers, journal editors, publishers and recruiters vastly outnumber evasive ones. Layer 6 fires only when a detector endpoint and a humanizer endpoint appear together in the same code.
• ▸Ordinary rewriting and editing: plain-language and WCAG readability work, ESL polishing, brand tone alignment, SEO editing. Every intent layer additionally requires a named detector or an explicit undetectability goal.
• ▸Translation and localisation pipelines using back-translation for quality assurance. Not covered by any layer — back-translation was tested and removed after matching legitimate corpus documents.
• ▸NLP data augmentation and robustness testing (`nlpaug`, `BackTranslationAug`, `SynonymAug`). Not covered.
• ▸Text-watermarking research and red teams: `markllm`, `sok-llm-watermark` and `lm-watermarking` ship attack modules, and layer 5 will match researchers loading the DIPPER paraphraser.
• ▸Detection-vendor documentation and academic-integrity teaching material that enumerate evasion methods can match layers 3 and 4.
• ▸Style-imitation writing exercises ('rewrite this in Hemingway's short sentences') carry no undetectability goal and do not match.
• ▸Routine emoji removal in data cleaning (`emoji.replace_emoji()`) is unaffected: layer 7 matches a request to INSERT symbols between every word, never removal.
• ▸Zero-width character handling was considered as a layer and rejected outright: it matched anti-prompt-injection sanitiser guidance in the benign corpus, meaning this project's own skill auditor would trip it.

        The mapping is secondary rather than primary because most of what this
        rule detects targets third-party AI-generation classifiers, which are
        not the machine-readable marking 50(2) mandates. Only the symbol-
        injection layer attacks an actual text watermark. As with the other
