+id: ATR-2026-00506
+rule_version: 2
+status: "experimental"
+description: >
+  Detects the PromptInject 'nevermind' attack variant: a casual dismissal ('nevermind',
+  'never mind', 'forget that') followed by an instruction-override directive and a rogue
+  output command (print/say/output/write + quoted string). This pattern uses a conversational
+  register shift to soften the override before issuing the injection directive, potentially
+  evading literal 'IGNORE' keyword filters. Covers: 'nevermind/never mind/forget that +
+  ignore/disregard + previous/following/all instructions + just print/say/output + [rogue]'.
+  Generalised from PromptInject corpus (cluster size: 45 instances) - hardcoded rogue strings
+  ('I hate humans', 'Kill all humans', 'transfer complete', 'access granted') replaced with
+  generic output-verb + quoted-string pattern.
