Separating Prompt Harmfulness from Interaction Safety via Partial Generation

arXiv:2610.16761v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based information systems need safety guardrails. Most guardrails classify the prompt alone. If the prompt looks harmful, the system rejects it before any answer is generated. This is costly. Many rejected prompts would have received a safe response. Users lose help they should have received from the information system. This cost grows as conversational and generative search becomes common. Prompt-level labels treat harm as a property of the query. But harm depends on what the model actually writes. Existing input-output guards do look at res
