What problem does it solve?
You are launching an AI feature on Google Cloud but lack a versioned Model Armor template to sanitize prompts and responses in production.
Who is it for?
Indie devs using the gws CLI who need repeatable Model Armor setup with jailbreak preset or custom JSON in CI or agent-driven deploy prep.
Skip if: Non-GCP stacks, teams without gws installed, or policy design-only reviews with no template provisioning.
When should I use this skill?
User asks to create a Model Armor template on GCP via gws modelarmor +create-template or needs jailbreak preset / JSON template provisioning.
What do I get? / Deliverables
A new Model Armor template exists in your project/region, ready to wire into +sanitize-prompt and +sanitize-response after explicit user approval of the write.
- Model Armor template resource in target project/location
- Template id/name usable with sanitize-prompt and sanitize-response
