Could you build this?

Partial A basic unified proxy router is easy to vibe code, but real-time enterprise guardrails (prompt injection detection, robust PII/PHI masking at low latency, and high-throughput failover) require non-trivial infrastructure and security engineering.

What it would actually take: A production version requires a high-performance proxy layer (e.g., Go, Rust, or Cloudflare Workers) handling streaming HTTP responses with minimal latency overhead. The security layer requires specialized tokenization and NER models for PII/PHI scrubbing plus semantic classification models or heuristic pipelines for prompt injection and jailbreak detection, alongside distributed Redis rate limiting and fault-tolerant upstream health checks.
