PyRIT's GUI gets workflow defaults, quiet auto-refresh and in-repo scorers move to the expectation-aware hook
By RepoJournal · Filed · About AI Red Teaming · Composed from the cited sources · methodology
PyRIT's operator-facing GUI shipped four changes in one batch: last-used defaults for targets and scorers, a workflow-first Home, contextual help, and once-a-minute silent refresh, alongside a breaking move of in-repo scorers onto the expectation-aware piece hook.
4 - FEAT: Last-used Defaults microsoft/PyRIT
New chats, scans and suite launches now reuse your last-used objective target and optional chat scorer (including Off), with supported Registry defaults taking precedence and explicit choices still first. The objective-target Registry default is removed, so anything relying on it must set a target explicitly.
9 - FEAT: Automatic Refresh microsoft/PyRIT
The Reload and Refresh controls are gone from Home, registries, histories, Analytics, catalogs, saved presets/suites and configuration views, replaced by a read of visible views once per minute that keeps filters, selection and unsaved edits. Background failures surface as error text only, so you no longer get a manual retry button.
[BREAKING] MAINT Move in-repo scorers onto the expectation-aware piece hook (phase 12, part 2) microsoft/PyRIT
Marked breaking: in-repo scorers now go through the expectation-aware piece hook (phase 12, part 2). If you vendor or subclass those scorers rather than calling them through the public path, check your scorer wiring against the new hook before upgrading.
7 - FEAT: Workflow-focused Home microsoft/PyRIT
Home now leads with Attacks and Scans with direct entry actions and separate history links, and the large Labels and Default objective target cards are replaced by workflow content with Registry setup demoted to secondary. Recent attack and scan links get compact All/Attacks/Scans filters.
8 - FEAT: Contextual Help microsoft/PyRIT
Contextual help arrives across chat, scanner and Registry views as native Fluent information icons plus term-text hover, without duplicate simultaneous help surfaces, and target labels and empty-state navigation are corrected. Elsewhere, promptfoo's npm_and_yarn group bump took glob from 13.0.6 to 14.0.2 alongside minimatch and follow-redirects.
