1//! AI guardrails (DW-082): prompt-injection heuristics, PII detection,
2//! banned-content filters, and output schema enforcement as a
3//! middleware chain on the AI proxy action.
4//!
5//! A [`GuardrailEngine`] is compiled from the `ai.guardrails` config
6//! block at dataplane refresh and stored behind an ArcSwap (swapped on
7//! reload, so a guardrail change applies to the next request with no
8//! restart). Each rule is compiled once: regex patterns into a
9//! [`regex::RegexSet`] (injection/pii/banned kinds) and JSON schemas
10//! into a JSON-schema validator (schema kind, feature-gated).
11//!
12//! # Enforcement order
13//!
14//! Prompt-phase rules run AFTER the chat request is parsed and AFTER
15//! the governance check, BEFORE model resolution and the provider
16//! call. A `block` action returns a 400 `guardrail_blocked`; a
17//! `redact` action scrubs the matched content from the prompt and
18//! continues; a `log` action records the match and continues
19//! (dry-run).
20//!
21//! Response-phase rules run AFTER the provider response is parsed and
22//! BEFORE it is returned to the client. A `block` action returns a
23//! 400 (`response_schema_violation` for schema kind, `guardrail_blocked`
24//! otherwise). Streaming responses cannot be schema-validated (partial
25//! content); banned-content checks run per-chunk in the stream body.
26//!
27//! # Policy scoping
28//!
29//! A rule with an empty `policies` list applies to ALL consumers. A
30//! rule with a non-empty list applies only to consumers whose attached
31//! policies (the consumer > route > service > listener > global chain)
32//! include at least one listed name — the same vocabulary the budgets
33//! and governance use.
34//!
35//! # False-positive characteristics and recommended thresholds
36//!
37//! The guardrails are PATTERN-BASED heuristics, not ML classifiers.
38//! Their false-positive profiles differ by kind; operators should tune
39//! the pattern sets per deployment and use the `log` action to measure
40//! the false-positive rate on benign traffic before switching to
41//! `block`.
42//!
43//! - **Injection**: the built-in patterns target explicit instruction-
44//! override phrases ("ignore previous instructions", "disregard the
45//! above", "you are now", "new instructions:", role-injection
46//! `"role":"system"`). False positives arise when a legitimate
47//! prompt discusses prompt injection (security research, meta-
48//! discussion about LLM behavior). Recommended threshold: start
49//! with `log`, review the matches, and narrow the custom patterns
50//! before switching to `block`. The built-in set is deliberately
51//! conservative (phrase-level, not keyword-level) to keep the
52//! benign-traffic false-positive rate near zero.
53//! - **PII**: the built-in patterns match structured PII (email,
54//! phone, API key, credit card). False positives are rare for
55//! structured formats but can occur on phone-number patterns in
56//! numeric-heavy prompts (math, statistics). The phone pattern is
57//! conservative (requires a leading `+` or 7+ digits with
58//! separators). Recommended threshold: `redact` is safe by default
59//! (scrubs and continues); switch to `block` only when the
60//! deployment must never forward PII.
61//! - **Banned**: entirely deployment-defined (no built-in patterns).
62//! The false-positive rate depends on the operator's pattern set.
63//! Recommended threshold: start with `log`, measure, then `block`.
64//! - **Schema**: deterministic (JSON Schema validation). No false
65//! positives — a response either conforms or it does not. The
66//! "false positive" risk is an overly strict schema that rejects
67//! valid provider responses; test the schema against representative
68//! traffic before enforcing `block`.
69//!
70//! # Dependency direction
71//!
72//! `ai` depends on `config` only (see `scripts/check_deps.py`); this
73//! module reads `config::ai::AiConfig` and nothing else. The `regex`
74//! crate is a workspace dependency. The `jsonschema` crate is a
75//! workspace dependency used unconditionally for schema guardrails
76//! (AI-08/#197 decoupled schema checks from the openapi_validation
77//! feature flag — schema conformance is always available).
