Guardrail Configuration Generator

A guardrail configuration is a set of rules that bound what gets through to and from an application or AI model - content filters, rate limits on requests, and checks on user input such as length limits and injection pattern detection. This tool drafts a vendor-neutral summary of such a policy that you then adapt into your actual system.

No, not directly. The output uses a simple, custom field structure (`guardrails.ai_safety`, `guardrails.rate_limiting`, `guardrails.input_validation`) meant to be readable and complete, not any one vendor's schema. Kong, Tyk, AWS API Gateway, AWS WAF, Cloudflare, LiteLLM and Portkey each have their own configuration format and field names. Use this draft as a checklist of the settings to configure, then translate the values into your platform's actual config syntax.

Not directly. Moderation systems differ in what they return - OpenAI's returns per-category scores, LlamaGuard returns a safe/unsafe verdict with categories, and Anthropic's classifiers are not configured with a single public numeric threshold. A single 0 to 1 value here is a simplified, vendor-neutral stand-in for 'how strict should content filtering be' that you map onto whichever category thresholds or settings your specific provider actually exposes.

OWASP does not certify tools or configurations, so no generated file can be said to be officially compliant. The categories covered here, such as input validation, rate limiting, and injection prevention, are informed by common guidance including the OWASP Top 10 and the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, but compliance with any specific standard depends on your full implementation, not this draft alone.

Use it as a checklist and a shared reference: review the settings with your platform or security team, then implement the equivalent rules in your actual API gateway, WAF, or LLM middleware using their own configuration syntax. Download or copy the file to share it, and keep it alongside your implementation as documentation of the intended policy.

Yes. Configuration generation happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to a server, and nothing is stored once you leave or reload the page unless you have explicitly downloaded the file yourself.

It can be a useful starting point for planning a policy, but it is a draft, not a certified, tested configuration. Test actual thresholds and rules in a staging environment on your real traffic and content before relying on them in production, and have your security team review the final implementation.

It's a simplified illustration: when enabled, the draft shows an effective limit about 20% above your set maximum, meant to represent short traffic spikes above the steady rate. Real burst handling differs by rate-limiting algorithm and gateway, for example a token-bucket's burst behavior comes from its bucket capacity, not a fixed percentage, so treat this figure as a planning aid rather than an exact algorithm.
