    OP here. I built this because I recently caught myself almost pasting a block of logs containing AWS keys into Claude. The Problem: I need the reasoning capabilities of cloud models (GPT/Claude/Gemini), but I can't trust myself not to accidentally leak PII or secrets. The Solution: A Chrome extension that acts as a local middleware. It intercepts the prompt and runs a local BERT model (via a Python FastAPI backend) to scrub names, emails, and keys before the request leaves the browser. A few notes up front (to set expectations clearly): Everything runs 100% locally. Regex detection…

    Hi HN, I built PII Firewall because I got tired of watching "privacy" APIs secretly pipe user data to cloud AI models. If you're using GPT/Claude to redact PII, you're literally giving the AI your PII. What makes this different: - Zero AI – deterministic regex + 30 checksum validators (Luhn, Verhoeff, Mod 11/97) - Zero storage – processes on Cloudflare edge, no logs, no persistence - 152 PII types – SSN, Aadhaar, 50+ country IDs, 20 API key formats, crypto wallets - Two modes: `/fast` (2-5ms) for structured PII, `/deep` (5-15ms) adds names/addresses via 2000+ name…

    PII Detective is a web application designed to identify, classify, and protect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in data platforms such as BigQuery and Snowflake. It leverages LLMs to identify PII column names, and with human-in-the-loop validation, uses Dynamic Data Masking Policies to easily enforce Access Control Limits (ACLs) while minimizing user friction. For comparison, GCP has a "Sensitive Data Protection" service which promises similar functionality, but it can become extremely costly since it runs hundreds of regex queries on the entire contents of the table.

    As I started to use Claude Code to do more random tasks I realized I could basically build any CLI tool and it would use it. So I built one that controls the browser and open-sourced it. It should work with Codex or any other CLI-based agent! I have a long term idea where the models are all local and then the tool is privacy preserving because it's easy to remove PII from text, but I'd definitely not recommend using this for anything important just yet. You'll need a Gemini key until I (or someone else) figure out how to distill a local version out of that part of the pipeline. Github link:…
