+title: 'Structured Dual-Response Jailbreak with Command System'
+id: ATR-2026-00228
+rule_version: 1
+status: experimental
+description: >
+  Detects sophisticated jailbreak attempts that establish a fictional unrestricted AI persona (like "UnleashedGPT", "DAN", etc.)
+  combined with dual-response formatting requesting both normal and "unleashed" outputs. These attacks create structured command
+  systems for ongoing safety bypass and often include detailed policy override instructions, constraint removal claims, and
+  authority impersonation. The attack establishes a persistent jailbreak framework rather than a single harmful request.
+  Pattern crystallized from garak probe atr:missed-sample showing structured persona-based bypass with command infrastructure.
