Active Session Defense

Active Session Defense (ASD) is a real‑time, user‑centric safety architecture designed to protect people during AI‑mediated communication.The framework introduces a structured method for monitoring, interpreting, and stabilizing live interactions between humans and AI systems, with emphasis on clarity, transparency, and human‑aligned behavior.

ASD defines a layered architecture that integrates:

• Session‑level monitoring for detecting destabilizing patterns in real time• User‑state modeling to support emotional, cognitive, and contextual safety• Intervention protocols that guide AI systems toward stabilizing, ethical responses• Documentation standards for reproducibility, auditing, and long‑term research use

This public repository contains the foundational ASD specification, including conceptual models, definitions, operational guidelines, and the rationale behind the architecture. It is intended for researchers, engineers, policymakers, and practitioners working in AI safety, human–computer interaction, and applied system design.

ASD is an evolving framework. Future versions will expand implementation details, evaluation methods, and cross‑platform integration strategies.
