@aegis-sdk/next
Advanced tools
Next.js integration for scanning LLM chat messages against prompt injection attacks.
Part of the Aegis.js prompt injection defense toolkit.
npm install @aegis-sdk/next @aegis-sdk/core
// app/api/chat/route.ts
import { Aegis } from '@aegis-sdk/core';
import { withAegis } from '@aegis-sdk/next';
import { streamText } from 'ai';
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
const aegis = new Aegis({ policy: 'strict' });
export const POST = withAegis(aegis, async (req, safeMessages) => {
const result = streamText({
model: openai('gpt-4o'),
messages: safeMessages,
});
return result.toDataStreamResponse();
});
withAegis(aegisOrConfig, handler, options?)Higher-order function that wraps a Next.js App Router route handler. Parses the request body, scans messages through aegis.guardInput(), and passes safe messages to your handler. Returns 403 with violation details if input is blocked.
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
messagesProperty | string | "messages" | Property on the request body to read messages from |
scanStrategy | ScanStrategy | "last-user" | Which messages to scan |
onBlocked | (req, error) => Response | -- | Custom error handler. Return a Response to take over |
Your handler receives (req, safeMessages, { instance, auditLog }).
aegisMiddleware(options?)Creates a Next.js Edge Middleware function for request-level scanning. Designed for use in middleware.ts at the project root.
// middleware.ts
import { aegisMiddleware } from '@aegis-sdk/next';
const aegisMw = aegisMiddleware({
aegis: { policy: 'strict' },
matchRoutes: ['/api/chat', '/api/ai'],
});
export async function middleware(req: Request) {
return aegisMw(req);
}
export const config = {
matcher: ['/api/chat/:path*', '/api/ai/:path*'],
};
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
aegis | AegisConfig | Aegis | {} | Aegis configuration or pre-constructed instance |
matchRoutes | (string | RegExp)[] | -- | Route patterns to scan. If omitted, all POST requests are scanned |
messagesProperty | string | "messages" | Property on the request body to read messages from |
scanStrategy | ScanStrategy | "last-user" | Which messages to scan |
onBlocked | (req, error) => Response | -- | Custom error handler |
guardMessages(aegis, messages, options?)Scans messages directly without using withAegis or Edge Middleware. Useful in Server Actions, custom API routes, or WebSocket handlers. Throws AegisInputBlocked if input is blocked.
Aegis, AegisInputBlocked, AegisSessionQuarantined, AegisSessionTerminated, and all core types are re-exported for convenience.
