noirdoc redacts PII before Claude Code

noirdoc is an open-source Claude Code plugin that pseudonymizes sensitive fields locally before they reach the model, then lets you reveal originals in your own terminal. It also ships the same engine as a CLI for any LLM workflow and as a hosted proxy for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Azure.

// ANALYSIS

This is the kind of privacy layer that turns AI coding from a demo-friendly toy into something legal and security teams can actually tolerate.

–The main value is not “better prompting,” it’s reducing the blast radius of customer data before it ever leaves the machine
–Local detection plus reversible placeholders is the right tradeoff for developer workflows that need context without exposing raw PII
–Shipping the same engine as plugin, CLI, and proxy is smart distribution: one redaction core, three deployment models
–The hosted proxy angle matters for teams that cannot rely on every engineer to use the plugin correctly
–It sits in a growing category of AI guardrails that block sensitive data at the edge instead of trying to clean up after the fact

Mosh is an open-source, model-driven application security testing harness that wraps around LLMs to automate penetration testing through discovery, planning, dockerized execution, and reporting.

Mosh (Model-driven Open Security Harness) is an open-source security testing application designed to automate the work of a security researcher. Instead of relying on raw prompts, the tool implements a multi-step workflow starting with application discovery (mapping routes and technologies), security planning (creating test hypotheses), and controlled test execution through Docker containers using engagement settings. It continuously writes structured reports and memory logs, allowing developers to safely run, review, and reproduce pen-testing results iteratively as vulnerabilities are resolved.
