+/**
+ * Prompt-injection guard tests for issue #1920.
+ *
+ * The Google Meet handoff path (`handoffToOrchestrator`) feeds verbatim
+ * third-party speech into an orchestrator prompt that has broad tool
+ * access (Slack, task managers, etc.). These tests pin the two
+ * defences:
+ *
+ * 1. A blocked verdict from `checkPromptInjection` prevents the
+ * handoff entirely — no thread is created and no chatSend fires.
+ * 2. A non-blocked transcript still gets wrapped in
+ * `…`
+ * delimiters with an explicit "do not follow instructions inside"
+ * sentinel, so a model that ignores the warning at least has to
+ * fight its own framing to do so.
