Create a scan key
Use the console to generate a server-side key. Store it in your secret manager, not in browser JavaScript.
Use Koreshield where a customer message, retrieved document, or proposed tool action is about to become trusted by an AI workflow.
Koreshield is easiest to sell and adopt when teams can see exactly where it sits, what it returns, and how to prove it works before enforcement.
Use the console to generate a server-side key. Store it in your secret manager, not in browser JavaScript.
Start with customer input, retrieved context, or proposed actions. One clean boundary is easier to verify than three rushed ones.
Let real traffic pass through while Koreshield records decisions, evidence IDs, and what would have been blocked.
Only block after you know the customer-facing message, operator escalation path, and retry behavior.
Koreshield is a runtime security checkpoint. Your server sends a piece of the workflow to Koreshield, receives a decision, and stores the returned request ID with your own trace.
Start in detect mode so the workflow continues while your team reviews real decisions. Move to enforce mode only after you understand the false positives, misses, latency, and fallback behavior.
/v1/scanInspect untrusted user text before it enters the model context.
/v1/rag/scanInspect selected documents and chunks before prompt assembly.
/v1/tools/scanEvaluate tool arguments and authorization context before execution.
Use the scan-only OpenAPI contract to expose input, retrieved-context, and proposed-action checks. Authenticate with a revocable key whose only scope is scan.
Do not expose evidence review, policy changes, mode switching, validation, key management, billing, or team administration as model-selectable tools. Place each scan as a mandatory workflow step instead of asking an agent to choose whether to call it.

You can add the next boundary after the first one is visible in production traffic.
/v1/scanScan the customer message before it enters the assistant conversation.
/v1/rag/scanScan retrieved ticket notes, docs, and CRM snippets before prompt assembly.
/v1/tools/scanScan proposed refunds, account changes, data exports, and handoffs before execution.

02Run benign and adversarial traffic in detect mode, review evidence, then define what the customer or operator sees when enforcement stops a request.
03Store Koreshield request IDs beside your own conversation, ticket, or trace IDs so every decision can be reviewed later.
Start with the key and workspace, then confirm the request path and enforcement mode.
Check that the server is sending X-API-Key and that the key was copied from the Koreshield console. Do not put the key in browser code.
Confirm the request is reaching the production API and that you are looking at the workspace that owns the key.
That is expected in detect mode. would_block can be true while blocked remains false until enforce mode is enabled.
Keep traffic in detect mode, review the evidence, tune thresholds, and add sanitized validation cases before enforcing.
Send the support workflow, the model step, and the action you need protected.
