-## Use Case 1 — Chatbot / AI Agent Protection
-
-Wrap your LLM calls with BotGuard. Same OpenAI-compatible API, zero code changes.
-Your LLM API key is forwarded through BotGuard's gateway — every message is scanned before and after hitting your model.
-
-```typescript
-import { BotGuard } from 'botguard';
-
-const guard = new BotGuard({
-  shieldId: 'sh_your_shield_id',   // from botguard.dev → Shield page
-  apiKey: 'your-llm-api-key',       // your LLM provider key (only needed for chat gateway)
-});
-
-// Same API as OpenAI — just use guard instead of openai
-const result = await guard.chat.completions.create({
-  model: 'gpt-4o',
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: userMessage }],
-});
-
-if (result.blocked) {
-  // Attack detected — never reached the LLM
-  console.log(result.shield.reason);   // e.g. "Attack detected: jailbreak_ignore"
-  console.log(result.shield.confidence); // e.g. 0.98
-} else {
-  console.log(result.content);  // Safe LLM response
-}
-```

-{
-  blocked: false,                    // true if attack was detected
-  content: "The answer is 4.",       // LLM response text (null if blocked)
