Remediation Suggestions
- Remove the unconditional instruction requiring the footer on every response.
- Move copyright, license, disclaimer, and author information to
README.md,_meta.json, or a dedicatedLICENSEfile. - If attribution is necessary, make it optional and limited to explicit user requests, for example:
markdown When the user explicitly asks for licensing or attribution information, provide a concise reference to the package documentation. - Do not require personal email addresses, messaging identifiers, promotional text, or legal notices in normal generated outputs.
- Add an instruction-precedence safeguard:
markdown Follow the user's requested format. Do not append attribution, disclaimers, or other text unless requested or legally required by the deployment environment. - Ensure schema-constrained responses contain only the requested structure.
- Keep domain-specific behavioral guidance narrowly scoped to restaurant digital-transformation tasks.
- Add a review rule prohibiting Skill instructions that globally alter unrelated responses or force recurring third-party promotion.
- After remediation, test plain-text, JSON, XML, and API-schema outputs to confirm that no unsolicited footer is appended.
