+"""Levo AI Gateway guardrail for LiteLLM.
+
+Sends prompts and completions to a self-hosted Levo AI Gateway, which runs
+Levo's policy engine — data-protection and content-safety scanners, CEL-based
+access control, MCP tool policies — and answers allow / block / rewrite.
+
+The gateway speaks LiteLLM's Basic Guardrail API, so the request and response
+bodies here are the same shape `generic_guardrail_api` uses. This integration
+exists on top of that for two reasons:
+
+1. Streamed responses are buffered until moderated by default. The generic
+   integration cannot enable that, so a response-side finding on a streaming
+   call arrives after the client already has the content.
+2. `guardrail: levo` with a typed config model, rather than a generic endpoint
+   plus provider-specific parameters.
