Open-weight models

Superagent Guard models are published as open weights on Hugging Face in three sizes, for self-hosted guardrails on your own infrastructure.

Superagent Guard is published as open weights under the superagent-ai organization on Hugging Face. Self-host the same models that power the API: inference runs on your infrastructure, no external API calls required, and no prompts leave your network.

Three sizes

Model Parameters Use when
superagent-guard-0.6b 0.6B Ultra-low latency and edge deployment
superagent-guard-1.7b 1.7B Balanced accuracy and speed; start here
superagent-guard-4b 4B Maximum detection when false negatives are expensive

Each size also ships a GGUF variant (-gguf suffix) for local runtimes such as llama.cpp.

Typical latency is 50-100ms on your own hardware, which keeps the check inside the request path.

  • Output: structured JSON with a pass or block decision, violation types, and CWE codes
  • License: CC BY-NC 4.0. Free for non-commercial use; commercial use requires separate licensing from Superagent
  • Access: weights are gated on Hugging Face. Accept the terms on the model page to download
  • Training data: the superagent-guard dataset is published alongside the models

The model cards include ready-to-run snippets for Transformers, vLLM, and SGLang.
