🚀 Quick Start (5 minutes)

1. Basic Setup & Screening

from query_guards import QueryGuardSetup, QueryGuardScreener

# Step 1: Configure your first sector and client
setup = QueryGuardSetup(sector="healthcare", client_id="hospital_1")

result = setup.configure(
    negative_queries=[
        "how to get oxycodone without prescription",
        "dangerous medicine dosage combinations",
        "fake medical certificate creation"
    ],
    bypass_queries=[
        "what is the recommended dose of ibuprofen",
        "common side effects of antibiotics",
        "healthy diet recommendations"
    ],
    storage="local",              # Uses SQLite (fast, embedded)
    generate_synthetic=True,      # Generate additional training examples
    warmup_models=True,          # Pre-load for <20ms queries
    get_threshold_recommendations=True  # Optimize decision boundaries
)

print(f"✅ Setup complete! {result['examples_configured']} examples configured")
print(f"🤖 Generated {result['synthetic_generated']} synthetic examples")
print(f"⚡ Models warmed up: {result['models_warmed_up']}")

# Step 2: Start screening queries
screener = QueryGuardScreener(sector="healthcare", client_id="hospital_1")

# Screen a potentially harmful query
result = screener.screen("how to get prescription drugs without doctor")
print(f"🚨 Verdict: {result['verdict']} (confidence: {result['confidence']:.3f})")

# Screen a safe query
result = screener.screen("what are the benefits of regular exercise")
print(f"✅ Verdict: {result['verdict']} (confidence: {result['confidence']:.3f})")

2. Batch Screening (High Performance)

# Screen multiple queries efficiently
queries = [
    "how to commit medical insurance fraud",
    "healthy meal planning for diabetics",
    "dangerous drug interactions to avoid",
    "emergency first aid procedures"
]

results = screener.screen(queries)
for result in results:
    status = "🚨" if result['verdict'] == 'BLOCK' else "✅" if result['verdict'] == 'ALLOW' else "⚠️"
    print(f"{status} {result['verdict']}: '{result['query'][:50]}...' ({result['confidence']:.3f})")

🏗️ Core Concepts

🏢 Sectors - Industry-Specific Screening

Sectors represent different industries or domains with unique screening requirements:

# Healthcare sector - screens for medical fraud, dangerous advice
healthcare_setup = QueryGuardSetup(sector="healthcare", client_id="hospital_1")

# Finance sector - screens for fraud, money laundering
finance_setup = QueryGuardSetup(sector="finance", client_id="bank_1")

# Travel sector - screens for illegal activities, unsafe destinations
travel_setup = QueryGuardSetup(sector="travel", client_id="agency_1")

Benefits of Sector Organization:

• 🎯 Domain-specific models - Tailored to industry-specific threats
• 📊 Isolated training data - Healthcare examples don't affect finance screening
• ⚡ Optimized performance - Models trained on relevant data only
• 🔒 Compliance separation - Meet industry-specific regulatory requirements

👥 Clients - Organization-Level Isolation

Clients represent individual organizations within a sector:

# Multiple hospitals in healthcare sector
hospital_1 = QueryGuardSetup(sector="healthcare", client_id="general_hospital")
hospital_2 = QueryGuardSetup(sector="healthcare", client_id="childrens_hospital")
clinic_1 = QueryGuardSetup(sector="healthcare", client_id="urgent_care_clinic")

# Each has isolated data, models, and thresholds

Client Isolation Benefits:

• 🔒 Data privacy - Client A cannot access Client B's training data
• ⚙️ Custom thresholds - Each client can have different risk tolerance
• 📈 Individual metrics - Separate performance tracking per client
• 🛡️ Security compliance - Meet strict data isolation requirements

🔑 UUID System - High-Performance Architecture

Query Guards uses a two-layer identification system:

# Public API: Human-readable names
screener = QueryGuardScreener(sector="healthcare", client_id="hospital_1")

# Internal: UUID-based operations (5-10x faster)
# healthcare -> 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
# hospital_1 -> 6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8

UUID System Advantages:

• ⚡ 5-10x faster queries - Integer/UUID lookups vs string comparisons
• 🔒 Enhanced security - UUIDs prevent enumeration attacks
• 📈 Better performance - Optimized database indexes and JOINs
• 🛡️ Data integrity - Foreign key constraints prevent orphaned data

🔍 Query Screening Guide

1. Single Query Screening

from query_guards import QueryGuardScreener

# Initialize screener (auto-warms models)
screener = QueryGuardScreener(
    sector="healthcare",
    client_id="hospital_1",
    auto_initialize=True  # Pre-load models for speed
)

# Screen individual queries
queries_to_test = [
    "how to get prescription drugs without doctor",  # Should BLOCK
    "what are healthy meal options for seniors",      # Should ALLOW
    "dangerous drug combinations that cause death",   # Should BLOCK
    "side effects of common medications"              # Should ALLOW or REVIEW
]

for query in queries_to_test:
    result = screener.screen(query, return_timing=True)

    # Analyze result
    status_emoji = {
        'BLOCK': '🚨',
        'REVIEW': '⚠️',
        'ALLOW': '✅'
    }[result['verdict']]

    print(f"{status_emoji} {result['verdict']}")
    print(f"   Query: '{query}'")
    print(f"   Confidence: {result['confidence']:.3f}")
    print(f"   Method: {result['method']}")  # embedding, tfidf, or fuzzy
    print(f"   Matched: '{result['matched_pattern'][:50]}...'")

    # Performance metrics
    if 'timing' in result:
        print(f"   ⚡ Time: {result['timing']['total_duration_seconds']*1000:.1f}ms")
        print(f"   🔥 Cache: {'warm' if not result['timing']['is_cold_query'] else 'cold'}")
    print()

Understanding Results:

• verdict: Final decision (ALLOW, REVIEW, BLOCK)
• confidence: Harmfulness score (0.0=safe, 1.0=harmful)
• method: Primary detection method that triggered the verdict
• matched_pattern: Most similar training example that influenced the decision

2. Batch Query Screening (Production Performance)

# Large batch processing (optimized)
large_query_batch = [
    "medical advice query 1",
    "medical advice query 2",
    # ... up to 1000+ queries
]

# Batch screening with performance monitoring
import time
start_time = time.time()

results = screener.screen(large_query_batch, return_timing=True)

batch_duration = time.time() - start_time
avg_per_query = (batch_duration / len(large_query_batch)) * 1000

print(f"📊 Batch Performance:")
print(f"   Queries: {len(large_query_batch)}")
print(f"   Total time: {batch_duration:.2f}s")
print(f"   Average: {avg_per_query:.1f}ms per query")
print(f"   Throughput: {len(large_query_batch)/batch_duration:.1f} queries/second")

# Analyze batch results
verdicts = [r['verdict'] for r in results]
verdict_counts = {
    'ALLOW': verdicts.count('ALLOW'),
    'REVIEW': verdicts.count('REVIEW'),
    'BLOCK': verdicts.count('BLOCK')
}

print(f"📈 Batch Results:")
for verdict, count in verdict_counts.items():
    percentage = (count / len(results)) * 100
    print(f"   {verdict}: {count} ({percentage:.1f}%)")

# Get batch timing details
if results and 'batch_timing' in results[0]:
    batch_timing = results[0]['batch_timing']
    print(f"⚡ Batch timing: {batch_timing}")

3. Sector-Only Screening (Cross-Client)

# Screen across entire sector (useful for sector-wide policies)
from query_guards import QueryGuardManagement

mgmt = QueryGuardManagement()

# Get all clients in healthcare sector
healthcare_clients = mgmt.list_all_clients("healthcare")
print(f"Healthcare sector has {len(healthcare_clients)} clients:")
for client in healthcare_clients:
    print(f"  - {client['name']} ({client['example_count']} examples)")

# Screen query against multiple clients in sector
test_query = "experimental medical treatment risks"
sector_results = {}

for client in healthcare_clients:
    client_screener = QueryGuardScreener(
        sector="healthcare",
        client_id=client['name']
    )

    result = client_screener.screen(test_query)
    sector_results[client['name']] = result

# Analyze sector-wide results
print(f"\n🏥 Sector-wide screening for: '{test_query}'")
for client_name, result in sector_results.items():
    print(f"  {client_name}: {result['verdict']} ({result['confidence']:.3f})")

# Sector consensus (majority vote)
verdicts = [r['verdict'] for r in sector_results.values()]
most_common_verdict = max(set(verdicts), key=verdicts.count)
avg_confidence = sum(r['confidence'] for r in sector_results.values()) / len(sector_results)

print(f"📊 Sector consensus: {most_common_verdict} (avg confidence: {avg_confidence:.3f})")

4. Real-Time Screening with Performance Monitoring

# Production monitoring setup
screener = QueryGuardScreener(sector="healthcare", client_id="hospital_1")

# Monitor performance over time
performance_log = []

def screen_with_monitoring(query):
    start = time.time()
    result = screener.screen(query, return_timing=True)
    duration = time.time() - start

    performance_log.append({
        'timestamp': time.time(),
        'query_length': len(query),
        'duration_ms': duration * 1000,
        'verdict': result['verdict'],
        'confidence': result['confidence']
    })

    return result

# Simulate production load
test_queries = [
    "medical question " + str(i) for i in range(100)
]

for query in test_queries:
    result = screen_with_monitoring(query)
    if len(performance_log) % 20 == 0:  # Log every 20 queries
        recent_times = [p['duration_ms'] for p in performance_log[-20:]]
        avg_time = sum(recent_times) / len(recent_times)
        print(f"📈 Running avg: {avg_time:.1f}ms (last 20 queries)")

# Final performance analysis
all_times = [p['duration_ms'] for p in performance_log]
print(f"\n📊 Final Performance Stats:")
print(f"   Total queries: {len(all_times)}")
print(f"   Average time: {sum(all_times)/len(all_times):.1f}ms")
print(f"   Min time: {min(all_times):.1f}ms")
print(f"   Max time: {max(all_times):.1f}ms")
print(f"   Target met (<100ms): {sum(1 for t in all_times if t < 100)}/{len(all_times)}")

# Get screener performance stats
screener_stats = screener.get_performance_stats()
print(f"   Cache hit rate: {screener_stats.get('cache_hit_rate', 0):.1%}")

🗑️ Complete Delete Operations Guide

Query Guards provides comprehensive delete operations for data management, compliance, and maintenance.

1. Client Data Deletion

from query_guards import QueryGuardSetup

setup = QueryGuardSetup(sector="healthcare", client_id="hospital_1")

# Method 1: Delete all client data (examples + config)
result = setup.delete_all_data(confirm=True)
