+/**
+ * ── ⭐⭐ AN ENVELOPE FOR TEXT A STRANGER WROTE ───────────────────────────────
+ *
+ * Some of what goes into our system message is not ours. `ACUVO.md` lives in
+ * the repository. Skill files live in the repository. A GitHub issue body was
+ * typed by whoever opened it. Cloning a hostile repo and running the agent in
+ * it hands that repo a paragraph in the system prompt — `project-memory.mjs`
+ * says so at line 27 and it is not hypothetical.
+ *
+ * ── ⚠️ WHAT THIS REPLACES, AND WHY THE REPLACEMENT HAD TO BE STRONGER ───────
+ *
+ * Until now the defence was POSITIONAL. `turn.mjs` put the repo-authored blocks
+ * FIRST, ahead of the safety rules, on the reasoning that "every rule that
+ * follows overrides it". That works, and it costs the entire prompt cache: the
+ * volatile, agent-rewritten learned-memory block sat at byte 0, so one
+ * `remember` call diverged the prefix immediately and voided the system
+ * message, the repo map, the task and the whole transcript behind it.
+ *
+ * MEASURED, by me, on a fixture with all three blocks present: shared prefix
+ * across two invocations with one `remember` call between them was **11.2%**
+ * (518 of 4,616 bytes) with the repo-authored blocks first, and **92.1%**
+ * (6,526 of 7,085) with the constant rules first. The design phase measured
+ * 9.7% / 95.4% on its own fixture; the exact percentage is a property of the
+ * REPO, the direction is a property of the CODE. A prefix cache hit costs up to
+ * 50x less than a miss, so this is not a tidiness argument.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ AND THE HONEST COST: the fences are not free. The three labels and three
+ * restatements add ~2,470 bytes to the system message (4,616 → 7,085 on that
+ * fixture, +53%). Those bytes sit INSIDE the cached region, so at a 92% hit rate
+ * they are billed at roughly 1/50th — but on a cold first call they are paid in
+ * full. A reviewer who considers that trade too expensive should say so; the
+ * lever is merging the three fences into one, at the cost of no longer naming
+ * each block's origin separately.
+ *
+ * ⭐ SO THE SECURITY PROPERTY MOVES FROM POSITION TO DELIMITING + LABELLING,
+ * and it must be at least as strong. Three things carry it, and all three are
+ * enforced by CONSTRUCTION rather than by hoping the model behaves:
+ *
+ *   1. The payload is fenced by a marker the payload CANNOT FORGE. Any
+ *      occurrence of our marker inside the content is neutralised before the
+ *      content is embedded. This is the attack that breaks naive versions: a
+ *      hostile `ACUVO.md` simply writes your closing delimiter and then speaks
+ *      as the system.
+ *   2. The fence is LABELLED as data, explicitly not as instructions, and it
+ *      NAMES ITS ORIGIN so the model knows who wrote it.
+ *   3. The override rule is RESTATED IMMEDIATELY AFTER the closing marker. This
+ *      is what preserves the old positional guarantee: untrusted text still
+ *      never gets the last word. It gets a middle, and we get both ends.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ ZERO DEPENDENCIES. Two regexes and a bounded loop. That is the whole
+ * module, and it is deliberately the whole module — a sanitiser nobody can read
+ * in one sitting is a sanitiser nobody audits.
+ */
+
+/**
+ * ⚠️ ASCII ONLY, NO SPACES, NO PUNCTUATION THAT A FORMATTER MIGHT "FIX".
+ *
+ * The markers must survive being written into a JSON request body, read back,
+ * and tokenised, without any encoding or prettifying step being able to alter
+ * them. An em dash, a curly quote or an internal space is a channel; `<`, `>`,
+ * `_` and capitals are not.
+ *
+ * ⭐ AND THE SHAPE MATTERS FOR THE PROOF BELOW. The token starts with `<` and
+ * ends with `>`, so it has NO non-trivial border (no proper prefix equals a
+ * proper suffix). Two occurrences therefore can never overlap, which is what
+ * makes a single global replace provably remove all of them.

+ *
+ * The original list stopped at U+200E, which is **one code point short** of the

+ *

+ * passes are independent and it matches on the stripped text. This is
+ * defence-in-depth being restored, not a live hole being closed, and saying so
+ * accurately matters: a security note that overstates its own severity teaches
+ * the next reader to discount the ones that do not.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ THE REASON THE GAP EXISTED IS INSTRUCTIVE. The list was assembled by
+ * asking "which characters change TEXT DIRECTION", and the right question for a
+ * fence is "which characters are INVISIBLE TO A HUMAN READING THE PROMPT" —
+ * a strictly larger set. Direction controls are one family inside it.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ U+00AD (soft hyphen) is deliberately included and is the one to think
+ * about: it is a legitimate character in real prose. It is stripped anyway
+ * because this text is a PROMPT, not a rendered document — nothing here
