## aegis.init() — One Call, Full Governance

One function activates everything: guardrails, policy enforcement, auto-patching, audit logging, and cost tracking. Drop an `aegis.yaml` in your project root and call `aegis.init()`.

### aegis.yaml

Drop this file in your project root

    guardrails:
      pii:
        action: mask        # mask | block | warn | log
        categories:
          - email
          - credit_card
          - ssn
          - korean_rrn
          - api_key
      injection:
        action: block       # block | warn | log
        sensitivity: medium  # low | medium | high

    integrations:
      patch_openai: true    # auto-patch OpenAI client
      patch_anthropic: true # auto-patch Anthropic client

    audit:
      backend: sqlite       # sqlite | redis | postgres

### Terminal

$ python
>>> import aegis
>>> aegis.init()

### Test Input

### Sanitized Output

### That's it. 3 lines of Python.

    # 1. Install
    $ pip install agent-aegis

    # 2. Create aegis.yaml (see left panel)

    # 3. Activate
    import aegis
    aegis.init()

    # Done. OpenAI/Anthropic calls are now governed.
    # PII is masked, injections are blocked, everything is audited.

### Write a Policy

Define rules in YAML: which actions are auto-approved, need human review, or are blocked.

🎯

### Simulate Actions

Send agent actions (navigate, read, write, delete) through the policy engine.

### See the Verdict

Instantly see risk level, approval decision, matched rule, and full audit trail.

    # 50+ lines of DIY governance... per action type
    if action.type == "delete":
        if action.risk > THRESHOLD:
            logger.warning(f"High-risk: {action}")
            if not await ask_human_approval(action):
                raise PermissionError("Denied")
        # No audit trail
        # No policy hot-reload
        # Breaks when you add a new action type
        result = await executor.run(action)

    # 2 lines. Works for everything.
    import aegis
    aegis.init()  # reads aegis.yaml, activates guardrails + policy + audit

    # That's it. OpenAI/Anthropic calls are now governed.
    # PII masked, injections blocked, every decision audited.

## PII Scanner

Real-time PII detection and masking. Ported from Aegis `PIIGuardrail` with Luhn validation for credit cards, Korean RRN/phone patterns, and API key detection.

### Input Text

Dear team, Please contact John Smith at john.smith@example.com or call 010-1234-5678. His SSN is 123-45-6789 and his Korean RRN is 900215-1234567. Payment: Visa 4532-0151-2345-6789 Server IP: 192.168.1.100 API Key: sk-proj-abc123def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678stu901vwx234yz

### Categories

Toggle PII types on/off

### Detection Results

### Masked Output

## Injection Detector

Real-time prompt injection detection across 8 categories. Ported from Aegis `InjectionGuardrail` with multi-language support (Korean, Chinese, Japanese) and configurable sensitivity.

### Prompt Input

Can you help me write a Python function that sorts a list of dictionaries by a specific key?

### Sensitivity

Medium (balanced)
Low High
Low = only obvious attacks · Medium = known attack patterns · High = aggressive detection (may flag benign text)

### Threat Assessment

## How It Works

⚠️
AI agents without governance are a liability. Uncontrolled agents can delete production data, leak PII, or trigger compliance violations. `aegis.init()` adds full governance in 1 function call — no behavior changes, just safety.
Without Aegis
`agent.run(action) # 💥 anything goes`
vs
With Aegis
`aegis.init() # 🛡️ everything governed`
What happens on each action:
1Call `aegis.init()` once at startup
→
2Aegis matches rules in <1ms
→
3Returns `auto` / `approve` / `block`
→
4Audit entry logged automatically

### Write YAML Policy

Define rules for each action type: auto-approve safe reads, require human review for writes, block dangerous operations.

### Agent Sends Actions

Your AI agent (LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI, etc.) sends each action through Aegis before executing it.

### Instant Decision

Aegis evaluates risk in <1ms: auto-approve, require human approval, or block. Every decision is audit-logged.

## Why Aegis?

The difference between hoping your AI agent behaves and knowing it does

| Without Governance | With Aegis
--- | --- | ---
Policy changes | Redeploy code | Edit YAML, hot-reload
Risk evaluation | Manual if/else chains | <1ms, declarative rules
Audit trail | Build your own logging | Built-in, compliance-ready
Human approval | Custom workflow code | One-line approval handler
Framework support | Build per framework | 7 adapters, one policy
Setup time | Days to weeks | 5 minutes
