Hidden-Content Validation¶
Content-validation rules that catch payloads and instructions invisible to human review: invisible/bidi unicode smuggling (ASCII smuggling, Trojan Source), agent directives hidden in HTML comments, and long high-entropy base64/hex blobs that can smuggle encoded payloads. They complement hooks-dangerous, settings-dangerous, and content-embedded-secrets, which cover the executable and credential sides of the same threat.
