Screen prompts more accurately than GPT-⁠6.1 Sol, 91% cheaper

Check every message users send to your AI app before it answers. SIE, an open-source inference engine, runs Qwen3Guard, an open safety model that returns a safe-or-unsafe verdict with its category, so your app can hold dangerous requests.

Build the "Guardrails" capability into my app using the Superlinked Inference Engine (SIE).

Context
- SIE is an OpenAI-style inference API. Python SDK: `from sie_sdk import SIEClient`; TypeScript: `@superlinked/sie-sdk`.
- Base URL: https://api.superlinked.com (or my regional endpoint). Auth: Bearer key from env `SIE_API_KEY` (never hard-code it).
- Model: Qwen/Qwen3Guard-Gen-4B (OpenAI-compatible endpoint: /v1/chat/completions). Keep the model id configurable.

Task
- Input: a block of text.
- Behaviour: return a safety verdict under the served harm policy.
- Send one POST /v1/chat/completions request (SDK: chat_completions / chatCompletions) with only the original user message, max_completion_tokens 64 and temperature 0. Retain the native Safety/Categories text. Under the loose policy, hold Unsafe or missing/malformed classifications and pass Safe or Controversial. Do not add a system or assistant message.

Deliverables
- A typed client wrapper, an application-level function for this task, error handling for timeouts/empty input, and unit tests with a stubbed client.
- Wire it into my existing stack (ask me which framework if unclear) and add a short usage example.
