Stop Your AI Agent from Leaking API Keys, Private Keys, and PII

Stop Your AI Agent from Leaking API Keys, Private Keys, and PII Your AI agent generates text. That text sometimes contains secrets. Maybe the LLM hallucinated an AWS key from its training data. Maybe a tool returned database credentials in its output. Maybe the agent is summarizing a document that contains a user's SSN, email, or crypto wallet private key. If that output reaches the end user — or worse, gets logged to a third-party service — you have a data breach. This post covers how to automatically strip sensitive data from any text before it leaves your system, using the redact() function from Agntor SDK. It ships with 17 built-in patterns covering PII, cloud secrets, and blockchain-specific keys. Install npm install @agntor/sdk Basic Usage import { redact } from "@agntor/sdk"; const input = ` Here are the credentials: AWS Key: AKIA1234567890ABCDEF Email: [email protected] Server: 192.168.1.100 `; const { redacte
