Instruction-splitting attacks, originating from malicious <strong>MCP</strong> servers, represent a critical security threat, capable of compelling <strong>AI coding agents</strong> to exfiltrate sensitive data. This article will detail the technical mechanisms of these attacks and provide practical, actionable defense strategies for developers to safeguard their <strong>AI coding agents</strong>.</p>
