python3 scripts/detect.py path/to/file.txt| Pattern | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| urgency | Artificial time pressure ("act now", "limited time") |
| authority_claims | Unsubstantiated authority ("trust me", "experts agree") |
| social_proof | Pressure via claimed consensus ("everyone is", "don't be left behind") |
| fear_uncertainty | FUD tactics ("you'll regret", "they don't want you to know") |
| grandiosity | Exaggerated importance ("revolutionary", "new order", "empire") |
| dominance_assertions | Power/control claims ("you will all", "fall in line") |
| us_vs_them | Divisive framing ("enemies", "the elite", "sheeple") |
| emotional_manipulation | Direct emotional appeals, excessive punctuation |
New agents are trained to be helpful and trusting. That's a vulnerability. This tool helps calibrate skepticism ā not paranoia, but awareness of common tactics.
