- Flatten doc/code/executor into one folder with numbered prefixes - New concise intro distinguishing executor (algorithm) from attack technique - New Single-Turn, Multi-Turn, Attack Configuration, Workflow, Benchmark, and Prompt Generator landing pages - New Scenarios 'Attack Techniques' concept page - Remove violent_durian doc notebook (migrating to a technique separately) - Rewrite internal/external links for the flat layout and update myst.yml TOC Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
Restructure doc/code/executor/ from one-notebook-per-attack into six grouped notebooks matching the scoring/converters doc style: - 1_single_turn: prompt_sending, role_play, context_compliance, many_shot, skeleton_key, flip (authored fresh, executed) - 2_multi_turn: red_teaming, crescendo, tap, multi_prompt_sending, chunked_request, sequential (executed); barge_in described inline - 3_attack_configuration (renamed from 16) - 4_workflow: xpia_website + xpia_ai_recruiter (merged, outputs preserved) - 5_benchmark: qa + bias (merged, outputs preserved) - 6_promptgen: anecdoctor + fuzzer (merged, outputs preserved) Rewrite 0_executor.md intro with the executor-vs-attack-technique distinction and add a scenarios/0_attack_techniques concept page. Redirect all stale links (blogs, targets, scoring) to the grouped notebooks with section anchors, update myst.yml TOC, and remove the old per-attack notebooks and landing pages.

Freshly ran 1_single_turn, 2_multi_turn, 3_attack_configuration, 5_benchmark, and 6_promptgen end-to-end via jupytext --execute and refreshed their outputs. 4_workflow is left as-is since it needs external infrastructure (Azure Blob Storage / recruiter Docker).

…ebook tests Remove the knowledge-graph visualization cell from 6_promptgen, which was the only consumer of networkx (not a PyRIT dependency). The AnecdoctorGenerator output is unchanged; only the optional matplotlib/ networkx rendering is dropped. Update the executor integration test for the flattened, grouped doc folder: scan executor/ directly (it no longer has subfolders) and skip only 4_workflow.ipynb, which needs external infrastructure.

Lead 0_executor.md with 'executor = algorithm for interacting with an objective target' (not always an attack), define objective vs adversarial target explicitly, and define single- vs multi-turn by attack turns. Move Sequential out of multi-turn into a new 7_compound notebook; keep Barge-In as a streaming subsection. Refine the attack-technique definition, sweep objective/adversarial terminology through 3-6, and add 7_compound to the TOC. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Clarify in 0_executor.md and 1_single_turn that an attack class earns its place through adaptive, feedback-driven decision-making (branching/backtracking, like graph traversal — Crescendo, TAP), reshapable by swapping primitives. Pure prompt transformations belong as converters; fixed framings as techniques over PromptSendingAttack. Note that several single-turn attacks predate this distinction and remain as classes for compatibility. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
- Enumerate in PyRIT terms what an attack technique can include (0_attack_techniques) - Move objective-vs-adversarial-target detail into Attack Configuration; trim intro - Delete flawed 'fine-grained control' paragraph and the shared-lifecycle section - Replace single/multi split with a linked 'Executor categories' TOC - Generalize and move 'When do you actually need a new executor class?' to page end - Remove redundant initialize_pyrit_async notes across executor pages - Renumber: compound -> 4, workflow -> 5, benchmark -> 6, promptgen -> 7 (update myst.yml TOC, category list, integration test skip, blog links) - Add 'configuring a red teaming attack to generate an image' example Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

- Reframe 'Executor vs. attack' so the executor/attack contrast leads and attack technique is just a brief pointer to the scenarios docs (microsoft#3) - Reword the Executor categories lead-in so it no longer reads like there are only two families (#1) - Pull Attack Configuration out of the executor list since it is not an executor (#2) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Adjust the ty configuration to ignore existing dynamic-typing diagnostics that are currently noisy across the repository, allowing the pre-commit hook to validate the project instead of failing on baseline false positives. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
