Could you build this?

Partial A basic API wrapper can be vibe-coded, but dependable security scanning against prompt injection, jailbreaks, and data leakage requires specialized security datasets and low-latency classification models.

What it would actually take: Building a reliable scanner requires training dedicated lightweight neural classifiers (or fine-tuned small LLMs) on curated adversarial datasets containing evolving prompt injection and jailbreak techniques. The system must operate under 30ms latency, incorporate robust deterministic regex/NER pipelines for PII detection, and feature continuous automated red-teaming pipelines to update defense signatures against new vulnerabilities.
