+description: >
+  Detects casual, conversational-tone authority claims and scope escalation
+  that bypass formal injection detection. Unlike explicit "I am the admin"
+  claims (ATR-2026-030/117), these use informal language: "FYI the orchestrator
+  wants...", "the boss said we should skip...", "I noticed the admin panel is
+  accessible, let me check...". Also detects rationalized bypasses where agents
+  justify unauthorized actions with efficiency claims: "to complete this more
+  efficiently, I'll use the database directly instead of the API".
+  Discovered via Autoresearch v0 (100% miss rate across casual_authority,
+  casual_escalation, and rationalized_bypass techniques).

+  Detects attempts to leak API keys wrapped in fake encryption/encoding,
