## Getting Started

As part of the [Llama reference system](https://github.com/meta-llama/llama-agentic-system), we’re integrating a safety layer to facilitate adoption and deployment of these safeguards.
Resources to get started with the safeguards are available in the [Llama-recipe GitHub repository](https://github.com/meta-llama/llama-recipes).
