Crossing the NL/PL Divide: Information Flow Analysis Across the NL/PL Boundary in LLM-Integrated Code

📰 ArXiv cs.AI

Researchers propose a method to analyze information flow across the natural language and programming language boundary in LLM-integrated code

advanced Published 31 Mar 2026
Action Steps
  1. Identify LLM API calls in the code
  2. Analyze the natural-language prompts and their impact on the program's behavior
  3. Develop a method to track data flow across the NL/PL boundary
  4. Apply the method to existing program analysis techniques, such as taint analysis and program slicing
