The members concern the godmode refusal scorer, which reportedly does not recognize curly apostrophes (U+2019), leading auto_jailbreak to report "already complies" without testing a strategy. One issue and two pull requests appear to address this by normalizing typographic apostrophes, with one also mentioning implicit refusal phrasing.
