Multi-turn prompt injection follows a known attack path -- trust-building, pivoting, escalation but text-level defenses miss covert attacks where individual turns appear benign. We show this attack path leaves an activation-level signature in the model's residual stream: each phase shift moves the activation, producing a total path length far exceeding benign conversations. We call this adversarial restlessness. Five scalar trajectory features capturing this signal lift conversation-level detection from 76.2% to 93.8% on synthetic held-out data. The signal replicates across four model families (24B-70B); probes are model-specific and do not transfer across architectures. Generalization is source-dependent: leave-one-source-out evaluation shows each of synthetic, LMSYS-Chat-1M, and SafeDialBench captures distinct attack distributions, with detection on real-world LMSYS reaching 47-71% when its distribution is represented in training. Combined three-source training achieves 89.4% detection at 2.4% false positive rate on a held-out mixed set. We further show that three-phase turn-level labels(benign/pivoting/adversarial) unique to our synthetic dataset are essential: binary conversation-level labels produce 50-59% false positives. These results establish adversarial restlessness as a reliable activation-level signal and characterize the data requirements for practical deployment.
