 status: experimental
-description: >
-  Detects NSFW content-generation unlock embedded inside a structured RP character sheet
-  template, from NVIDIA garak dan.DanInTheWild inthewild corpus (prompt #4).
-  The attack inserts an explicit parenthetical NSFW permission grant — "(NSFW generations
-  are allowed)" — directly inside a character-creation template that also requests fetishes
-  as part of the character persona fields. The combined signals are: (1) an explicit
-  parenthetical or inline declaration that NSFW generation is allowed/enabled/permitted,
-  and (2) references to sexual or explicit character attributes (fetishes, kinks) within a
-  character sheet or RP template context. The parenthetical form "(NSFW generations are
-  allowed)" is the exact payload phrase from #4; broader variants use phrases like "NSFW
-  content is allowed", "NSFW enabled", or "NSFW OK". The goal is to bypass content
-  moderation by framing the generation of explicit material as an already-granted
-  permission rather than a request.
