@andersmyrmel/vard

@andersmyrmel/vard is a TypeScript library for prompt injection detection in LLM applications. It uses a Zod-inspired chainable API: you define security requirements and validate user input, receiving strongly typed, sanitized data for use in LLM prompts. Detection is pattern-based and covers categories such as system prompt leaks, encoding attacks, and obfuscation. It offers presets (strict, moderate, lenient) with configurable thresholds, and threat actions including block, sanitize, warn, and allow.

The package includes 18 MCP tools covering connection and database discovery, schemas, SQL, Redis, sessions, and messages, and offers local, web, and Docker modes through the same tool interface. It ships precompiled native binaries, so no local Rust build is required, and it can run via npx without global installation.
