Production-ready LLM security firewall powered by Groq

Prompt Firewall

A production-ready LLM security firewall powered by Groq. Analyses every prompt in real-time and returns an ALLOW, WARN, or BLOCK verdict before the request reaches your LLM — with full threat reasoning, risk scores, and category breakdowns.

Production usage — FirewallProxy

Wrap any Groq-compatible client to intercept all requests automatically:

from groq import Groq
from firewall import FirewallProxy, FirewallBlockedError, Analyzer

analyzer = Analyzer(
    warn_threshold=50,
    block_threshold=80,
)

client = FirewallProxy(
    Groq(),                      # reads GROQ_API_KEY from env
    analyzer=analyzer,
    on_event=lambda e: print(e), # optional event callback
)

try:
    response = client.chat.completions.create(
        model="llama-3.3-70b-versatile",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, world!"}],
    )
    print(response.choices[0].message.content)
except FirewallBlockedError as e:
    print(f"Blocked: {e}")
