arXiv:2608.10699v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-Attributed Graphs (TAGs), endowed with abundant textual content along with topological structures, have emerged as a versatile backbone for real-world anomaly detection spanning large language model security, social network moderation, and cyber threat identification. Unlike conventional Graph Anomaly Detection (GAD), which relies primarily on structural irregularities, TAG anomaly detection must jointly leverage both topological patterns and fine-grained textual semantics to capture nuanced anomalous behaviors. The current GNN-based anomaly detectors adopt holistic message-passing schemes that indiscriminately fuse structural proximity and textual semantics during propagation, leading to deep cross-modality coupling. This entanglement acts as a noise amplifier, obscuring subtle anomalous signals and directly giving rise to the Blurred-Anomaly-Boundary (BAB) issue by rendering normal-anomalous decision boundaries poorly separable. This challenge is further amplified for graph foundation models that require robust cross-domain generalization. To bridge this gap, we introduce a novel foundation model for TAG anomaly detection featuring decoupled topological and textual prototypes. Our framework constructs dual prototype banks to independently model structural normality and semantic consistency, effectively isolating anomaly cues that are otherwise diluted during coupled aggregation. Extensive experiments across 14 diverse benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance …
