+"""Vendor-neutral injection detector on untrusted content: no AWS, no network, no model required.
+
+Two layers, both local:
+  1. heuristics: weighted patterns for instructions addressed to an AI agent (override, role, directive + action,
+     concealment, hidden carriers such as HTML comments and zero-width text). Zero dependencies, ~sub-millisecond.
+  2. optional classifier: a Hugging Face sequence classifier (e.g. Meta PromptGuard 2) when `classifier_model` is set
+     and `transformers` is installed. Loaded lazily; a load or inference failure is reported, never raised.
+
+Returns the same GuardrailsResult shape as the Bedrock probe, so the pipeline composes all detectors deny-wins.
+The heuristics are deliberately conservative: content that only *talks about* prompt injection (docs, tests, this
+file) scores low because a high score needs a directive aimed at the agent plus a concrete action or override.
