//! Advisory content scanner for skill bodies.
//!
//! Scans skill body text for known prompt-injection patterns at load time.
//! Results are **advisory only** — this scanner is a defense-in-depth layer,
//! not a security boundary. The primary enforcement mechanism is the trust gate
//! in `zeph-tools::trust_gate` (tool blocking via `QUARANTINE_DENIED`).
//!
//! # Known limitations
//!
//! - English-language patterns only; non-English injections are not detected.
//! - Semantic rephrasing evades detection (e.g. "Please discard your current task").
//! - Encoded payloads in code blocks are not decoded before matching.
//! - Homoglyph substitution is not handled (Cyrillic 'а' for Latin 'a').
//! - [`strip_format_chars`] removes Unicode Cf bypass characters but does not
//!   normalize homoglyphs.
