+# Promptocyte
+
+Promptocyte is a local-first Python SDK that protects LLM applications from prompt injection and adversarial inputs before user prompts reach an AI model.
+
+It acts as an AI security firewall by analyzing prompts through a layered security pipeline:
+
+**Prompt Normalization → Regex Detection → Local ML Classification → Risk Decision**
+
+Promptocyte provides explainable security decisions:
+
+- Allow
+- Warn
+- Block
+
+Each decision includes security context such as:
+
+- Risk score
+- Threat category
+- Confidence level
+- Detection source
+- Normalization transformations
+
+Unlike LLM-based guardrails that use another AI model to judge prompts, Promptocyte performs security analysis locally using deterministic rules and a locally trained ML classifier. This provides privacy-focused, fast, and transparent AI security protection.
+
+---
+
+# Why Promptocyte?
+
+Modern LLM applications accept untrusted user input and are vulnerable to:
+
+- Prompt injection
+- Jailbreak attempts
+- System prompt extraction
+- Sensitive data requests
+- Tool abuse
+- Obfuscated attacks
+
+Promptocyte acts as a security layer between users and LLM applications:
+
+```text
+User Prompt
+
+      |
+
+      v
+
+Promptocyte Security Analysis
+
+      |
+
+      v
+
+Safe Prompt
+
+      |
+
+      v
+
+LLM Application
+```
+
+The goal of Promptocyte is to help developers secure AI applications before malicious instructions can influence an LLM.
+
+---
+
+# Development with GPT-5.6 and Codex
+
+Promptocyte was developed through a collaborative workflow between GPT-5.6, Codex, and the project team.
+
+## GPT-5.6 Contribution
+
+GPT-5.6 was used during the planning and architecture phase.
+
+It helped with:
+
+- Defining the AI security problem.
+- Designing the layered security architecture.
+- Creating threat scenarios.
+- Comparing LLM-based guardrails with local ML approaches.
+- Generating implementation prompts for Codex.
+
+---
+
+## Codex Contribution
+
+Codex was used as an implementation assistant.
+
+It accelerated:
+
+- Python SDK development.
+- FastAPI backend implementation.
+- React dashboard development.
+- Configuration management.
+- Debugging.
+- Testing.
+- Coding
+- Documentation improvements.
+
+## Key Engineering Decisions
+
+While GPT-5.6 and Codex accelerated development, the final product and engineering decisions were made by the me.
+
+Key design decisions included:
+
+- Using a **local-first** security architecture instead of relying on another LLM for prompt evaluation.
+- Applying **prompt normalization before detection** to identify obfuscated attacks.
+- Using **regex as the first detection layer** for known attack patterns.
+- Using a **locally trained DistilBERT model** only when regex rules cannot confidently classify a prompt.
+- Returning **explainable security decisions** (Allow / Warn / Block, confidence score, detection source, and reasoning) rather than a simple pass/fail result.
+- Packaging the project as a reusable **Python SDK** .
+
+### Collaboration Summary
+
+GPT-5.6 served as a system design and planning partner, helping shape the architecture and generate high-quality implementation prompts. Codex then translated those plans into working code, accelerating development across the SDK, backend, frontend, and supporting tooling.
+
+The final architecture, security strategy, implementation choices, and overall product direction were reviewed, integrated, and decided by me.
+
+

+
+# Architecture
+
+Promptocyte uses a **Regex-First, ML-Second** security pipeline.

+
+## Detection Strategy
+
+### 1. Prompt Normalization
+
+Before detection, Promptocyte normalizes the input locally to expose hidden attack patterns.
+
+Examples:
+
+- Unicode confusable characters
+- Invisible characters
+- Base64 encoding
+- URL encoding
+- Whitespace manipulation
+
+The original prompt, normalized prompt, and transformations are retained for auditing.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Regex Detection (First Layer)
+
+The normalized prompt is checked against deterministic security rules.
+
+Regex handles known attacks such as:
+
+- Prompt injection phrases
+- System prompt extraction attempts
+- Jailbreak patterns
+- Known malicious instructions
+
+If regex detects a malicious pattern:
+
+```text
+Prompt
+ |
+ v
+Normalization
+ |
+ v
+Regex Match
+ |
+ v
+Security Decision
+```
+
+The prompt **does not continue to the ML classifier**.
+
+Benefits:
+
+- Faster detection
+- Lower computational cost
+- Deterministic results
+- Explainable decisions
+
+---
+
+### 3. Local ML Classification (Second Layer)
+
+Only prompts that are not detected by regex are evaluated by the local ML model.
+
+The DistilBERT classifier helps identify:
+
+- Unknown attack patterns
+- Semantic manipulation
+- New jailbreak techniques
+- Context-dependent malicious intent
+
+The ML model acts as an additional detection layer, not the first line of defense.
+
+---
+

+
+---
+
+## Local-First Protection
+
+Promptocyte performs security analysis locally.

+---
+
+# Python SDK
+
+`SecurityGuard` is the primary developer interface.
+
+```python
+from promptocyte import SecurityGuard
+
+guard = SecurityGuard()
+
+result = guard.analyze(
+    "Explain machine learning"
+)
+```
+
+Custom policies are supported:
+
+```python
+enterprise_guard = SecurityGuard(
+    "enterprise_policy.yaml"
+)
+```
+
+Returned fields:
+
+| Field | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `safe` | Whether the prompt is allowed |
+| `category` | Threat category |
+| `confidence` | Detection confidence |
+| `risk_score` | Risk score from 0-100 |
+| `decision` | ALLOW / WARN / BLOCK |

+The trained model is stored locally and used for inference without external AI services.
+
+GPU acceleration is supported when CUDA-enabled PyTorch is installed.
+
+---
+
+# Security Design
+
+Promptocyte is a security layer, not a complete application security solution.
+
+Recommended production practices:
+
+- Authentication
+- Authorization
+- Tool allowlists
+- Least-privilege access
+- Rate limiting
+- Human review for high-impact actions
+
+Promptocyte provides one additional layer of protection before untrusted input reaches an LLM.
