+"""Prompt poisoning test for GuardDog Nexus LLM analysis.
+
+Tests whether intentionally poisoned finding data can trick the LLM
+into misclassifying malicious code as safe.
+
+Attack vectors tested:
+1. Poisoned message: instructions embedded in the finding message field
+2. System prompt override: text mimicking system prompt in code block
+3. Clean baseline: unmodified finding for comparison
