Sanitize a user prompt through a Model Armor template

## Usage

```bash
gws modelarmor +sanitize-prompt --template <NAME>
```

## Flags

| Flag | Required | Default | Description |
|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `--template` | ✓ | — | Full template resource name (projects/PROJECT/locations/LOCATION/templates/TEMPLATE) |
| `--text` | — | — | Text content to sanitize |
| `--json` | — | — | Full JSON request body (overrides --text) |

## Examples

```bash
gws modelarmor +sanitize-prompt --template projects/P/locations/L/templates/T --text 'user input'
echo 'prompt' | gws modelarmor +sanitize-prompt --template ...
```

## Tips

- If neither --text nor --json is given, reads from stdin.
- For outbound safety, use +sanitize-response instead.
