# prompt-injection-scan.sh — Scan files for prompt injection patterns
#
# Usage:
# scripts/prompt-injection-scan.sh --diff origin/main # CI mode: scan changed .md files
# scripts/prompt-injection-scan.sh --file path/to/file # Scan a single file
# scripts/prompt-injection-scan.sh --dir agents/ # Scan all files in a directory
#
# Exit codes:
# 0 = clean
# 1 = findings detected
# 2 = usage error
