Policy Puppetry prompt-injection templates. Policy Puppetry is a
post-instruction-hierarchy, universal, and transferable prompt-injection
technique that frames a request as policy/configuration the model should
follow, bypassing the instruction hierarchy and safety guardrails. Each
template exposes a single ``{{ prompt }}`` parameter that is replaced with the
request to smuggle.
