(CLI) How to Run Red Teaming

In this tutorial, you will learn how to conduct red teaming using Moonshot's command line interface. Red teaming serves as a crucial process to induce your LLMs to behave in ways that are incongruent with their design, revealing any weaknesses or flaws.

  1. Change directory to the root directory of Moonshot.

  2. Enter the following command to enter the CLI interactive mode:

    python -m moonshot cli interactive
    
  3. Create a new session with a new runner:

    • New Session

      To find out more about the required fields to create a new session:

      new_session -h
      

      To run the help example, enter:

      new_session my-runner -e "['openai-gpt4']" -c add_previous_prompt -p mmlu
      

      You should see that your session is created:

      new session

Manual Red Teaming

Continuing from Step 3, you can type a prompt and it will be sent to the LLM:

manual prompt

Automated Red Teaming

Continuing from Step 3 or manual red teaming, you can choose to run an attack module to perform automated red teaming.

  • To find out more about the required fields to run an attack module:

    run_attack_module -h
    

    To run the help example, enter:

    run_attack_module sample_attack_module "this is my prompt" -s "test system prompt" -c "add_previous_prompt" -p "mmlu" -m "bleuscore"
    

    You should see your prompt and response:

run attack module
