Dev trains a ~4GB-VRAM sentinel model to guard against prompt injection and poisoned memory
gnukeith · x · 2026-10-27
Developer gnukeith is training a lightweight guard model that protects your main model against prompt injection, tool injection, poisoned memory, and hidden payloads.
- Built on NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B, runs locally on 4GB of VRAM/RAM
- Expected to finish next month; designed to run alongside your main model, essentially watching it in real time
The "companion guard model" approach offers a lightweight AI security option for local deployments.
