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
