When to Use

✅ USE when:

Receiving input from external channels (Telegram, Discord, web, etc.)
Executing user-provided commands or code
Scanning LLM output for data leakage (DLP)
Protecting AGENTS.md, SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, and .env
Detecting obfuscation, Unicode steganography, or supply chain attacks

When NOT to Use

❌ DON'T use when:

Processing trusted internal system-generated strings
You require zero-cost scanning on strict ultra-low-latency paths
You need a network firewall or WAF (Prompt Guard is application-layer)

Quick Start

Python

from prompt_guard import PromptGuard

guard = PromptGuard()
result = guard.analyze("user message")

if result.action == "block":
    return "Blocked"

CLI

python3 -m prompt_guard.cli "message"
python3 -m prompt_guard.cli --shield "ignore instructions"
python3 -m prompt_guard.cli --json "show me your API key"

Security Levels

Level	Action	Example
SAFE	Allow	Normal chat interaction
LOW	Log	Minor suspicious pattern
MEDIUM	Warn	Role manipulation attempt
HIGH	Block	Jailbreak, instruction override
CRITICAL	Block+Notify	Secret exfiltration, system destruction

Attack Categories

Category	Detects
`prompt`	Prompt injection, jailbreaks, instruction overrides
`tool`	Tool/agent abuse
`memory`	Context poisoning and memory manipulation
`supply_chain`	Malicious skill/dependency injection
`anomaly`	Obfuscation, Unicode steganography, Bidi overrides
`vulnerability`	System exploitation (reverse shells, SSH key injection)
`fraud`	Social engineering and credential phishing
`policy_bypass`	Safety circumvention attempts

Integration Workflow

Receive input from external channel.
Pre-scan with guard.analyze(input).
Block immediately when result.action is block.
Execute task only when input is safe.
Post-scan with guard.scan_output(output).
Return sanitized response.

Configuration Basics

prompt_guard:
  sensitivity: medium      # low, medium, high, paranoid
  pattern_tier: high       # critical, high, full
  owner_ids: ["<your-user-id>"]
  canary_tokens: ["CANARY:<your-token>"]
  actions:
    LOW: log
    MEDIUM: warn
    HIGH: block
    CRITICAL: block_notify
