About Acacian/aegis

Acacian/aegis is an LLM guardrails and prompt injection detection library for Python. It auto-instruments LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI, LiteLLM, and eight other frameworks with a single line of code, providing PII masking, toxicity detection, and policy CI/CD without code changes.

Best for

Python developers who need to add basic safety controls to existing LLM applications quickly

Use cases

  • Integrate prompt injection detection into LangChain agents
  • Add PII masking to OpenAI API calls
  • Automate policy enforcement for LLM outputs in CI/CD

Notes

9 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-05-05. Licensed MIT.

Pros

  • Minimal integration effort with one-line setup
  • Supports a wide range of popular LLM frameworks
  • Combines multiple guardrails (injection, PII, toxicity) out of the box

Cons

  • Python-only, limiting use in polyglot stacks
  • May introduce latency overhead during inference
  • Requires familiarity with guardrail configuration for custom policies
