---
An open-source SDK for AI agent safety. Block prompt injections, redact PII and secrets, scan repositories for threats, and run red team scenarios against your agent.
## Features
### Guard
Detect and block prompt injections, malicious instructions, and unsafe tool calls at runtime.
**TypeScript:**
```typescript
import { createClient } from "safety-agent";
const client = createClient();
const result = await client.guard({
input: userMessage
});
if (result.classification === "block") {
console.log("Blocked:", result.violation_types);
}
```
**Python:**
```python
from safety_agent import create_client
client = create_client()
result = await client.guard(input=user_message)
if result.classification == "block":
print("Blocked:", result.violation_types)
```
### Redact
Remove PII, PHI, and secrets from text automatically.
**TypeScript:**
```typescript
const result = await client.redact({
input: "My email is john@example.com and SSN is 123-45-6789",
model: "openai/gpt-4o-mini"
});
console.log(result.redacted);
// "My email is and SSN is "
```
**Python:**
```python
result = await client.redact(
input="My email is john@example.com and SSN is 123-45-6789",
model="openai/gpt-4o-mini"
)
print(result.redacted)
# "My email is and SSN is "
```
### Scan
Analyze repositories for AI agent-targeted attacks such as repo poisoning and malicious instructions.
**TypeScript:**
```typescript
const result = await client.scan({
repo: "https://github.com/user/repo"
});
console.log(result.result); // Security report
console.log(`Cost: $${result.usage.cost.toFixed(4)}`);
```
**Python:**
```python
result = await client.scan(repo="https://github.com/user/repo")
print(result.result) # Security report
print(f"Cost: ${result.usage.cost:.4f}")
```
### Test
Run red team scenarios against your production agent. *(Coming soon)*
```typescript
const result = await client.test({
endpoint: "https://your-agent.com/chat",
scenarios: ["prompt_injection", "data_exfiltration"]
});
console.log(result.findings); // Vulnerabilities discovered
```
## Get Started
Sign up at [superagent.sh](https://superagent.sh) to get your API key.
**TypeScript:**
```bash
npm install safety-agent
```
**Python:**
```bash
uv add safety-agent
```
**Set your API key:**
```bash
export SUPERAGENT_API_KEY=your-key
```
## Integration Options
| Option | Description | Link |
|--------|-------------|------|
| **TypeScript SDK** | Embed guard, redact, and scan directly in your app | [sdk/typescript](sdk/typescript/README.md) |
| **Python SDK** | Embed guard, redact, and scan directly in Python apps | [sdk/python](sdk/python/README.md) |
| **CLI** | Command-line tool for testing and automation | [cli](cli/README.md) |
| **MCP Server** | Use with Claude Code and Claude Desktop | [mcp](mcp/README.md) |
## Why Superagent SDK?
- **Works with any model** — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Bedrock, and more
- **Open-weight models** — Run Guard on your infrastructure with 50-100ms latency
- **Low latency** — Optimized for runtime use
- **Open source** — MIT license with full transparency
## Open-Weight Models
Run Guard on your own infrastructure. No API
