Tools from Guardrails AI

  • Snowglobe

    Simulate diverse conversations to evaluate AI agents

    Apps
    • Web ↗

      Sign in or create an account to create chatbot apps and launch simulations in the dashboard. API keys are generated at snowglobe.so/app/keys.

    Extensions
    • Claude Code ↗

      Optional. The snowglobe-skills plugin automates install, auth, scaffolding and testing of the chatbot connection from Claude Code. It needs a Snowglobe account.

    Developer access
    • Command line ↗

      Install the Python package 'snowglobe' (Python 3.9+; macOS, Linux or Windows). Authenticate with a browser login or API key, then connect your chatbot to a simulation. The docs show both the 'snowglobe' and 'snowglobe-connect' command names.

    • SDK / library (Python) ↗

      Install 'snowglobe-sdk' (Python 3.11+). It gives programmatic CRUD control of Agents and Simulations through the Snowglobe API. Use the CLI package instead to connect a chatbot.

    • SDK / library (TypeScript) ↗

      Install '@guardrails-ai/snowglobe-sdk' (Node 20+ or Bun) for programmatic control of Agents and Simulations.

  • Guardrails AI

    Validate model inputs and outputs with reusable Python guards

    Developer access
    • SDK / library ↗

      Needs Python and pip. Install guardrails-ai, then install validators you need from PyPI as guardrails-ai-<name> packages.

    • Command line ↗

      The guardrails CLI is installed with the Python package. Commands include guardrails configure, create and start. Needs Python and pip.

    • API (self-hosted Guardrails Server REST API) ↗

      This is self-hosted, not a managed cloud API. Install guardrails-ai[api], define guards in config.py, then run guardrails start. The REST API is exposed by that server.
