8-layer AI prompt injection detection engine with CLI, REST API, and Pro features.
Zero dependencies for the core engine. Drop it into any Python project, CI/CD pipeline, or deploy as a hosted API.

|---|---|---|
| 1. Lexical | 70+ regex signatures | Role hijacks, delimiter escapes, jailbreaks, tool abuse |
| 2. Structural | Multi-persona detection | Instruction sandwiches, role stacking, invisible Unicode |
| 3. Entropy | Shannon entropy decoder | Base64/hex/ROT13/Unicode encoded payloads |
| 4. Semantic Drift | 5-category scoring | System manipulation, code exec, data exfil, social engineering |
| 5. Canary Traps | Zero-width markers | Verifies model hasn't been hijacked mid-conversation |
| 6. Multi-Turn Memory | Conversation tracking | Boiling-frog escalation, sudden spikes, vector probing |
| 7. Indirect Injection | Embedded content scanner | HTML comments, hidden divs, markdown images, data URIs |
| 8. Language Evasion | Unicode analysis | Homoglyphs, leetspeak, reversed text, mixed scripts |
| + Deobfuscation | Recursive decoder | base64→hex→rot13→unicode multi-layer encoded payloads |
