llm-kernel 0.8.0

//! Prompt-injection detection via weighted regex rules.
//!
//! Scores user text for common prompt-injection signals — instruction
//! overrides, role hijacking, delimiter escapes, jailbreak phrases, and
//! payload drops — and returns a saturated aggregate risk in `[0.0, 1.0]`.
//!
//! **Scope note:** this is a coarse *lexical* heuristic, not an adversarial
//! detector. It catches the canonical surface forms (e.g. "ignore all previous
//! instructions", `DROP TABLE`, `<|im_start|>`), but a determined adversary
//! trivially evades it by rephrasing, inserting punctuation, or using
//! look-alike Unicode. Treat the score as a cheap first-line filter to be
//! composed with output validation and sandboxing — never as a security
//! boundary on its own.
