## `[security.perplexity_filter]`
Lightweight, opt-in adversarial suffix filter that runs before provider calls in channel and gateway message pipelines.
| Key | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `enable_perplexity_filter` | `false` | Enable pre-LLM statistical suffix anomaly blocking |
| `perplexity_threshold` | `18.0` | Character-class bigram perplexity threshold |
| `suffix_window_chars` | `64` | Trailing character window used for anomaly scoring |
| `min_prompt_chars` | `32` | Minimum prompt length before filter is evaluated |
| `symbol_ratio_threshold` | `0.20` | Minimum punctuation ratio in suffix window for blocking |
Notes:
- This filter is disabled by default to preserve baseline latency/behavior.
- The detector combines character-class perplexity with GCG-like token heuristics.
- Inputs are blocked only when anomaly conditions are met; normal natural-language prompts pass.
- Typical per-message overhead is designed to stay under `50ms` in debug-safe local tests and substantially lower in release builds.
Example:
```toml
[security.perplexity_filter]
enable_perplexity_filter = true
perplexity_threshold = 16.5
suffix_window_chars = 72
min_prompt_chars = 40
symbol_ratio_threshold = 0.25
```
## `[agents.<name>]`
Delegate sub-agent configurations. Each key under `[agents]` defines a named sub-agent that the primary agent can delegate to.

# Perplexity Filter (Opt-In)
ZeroClaw provides an opt-in lightweight statistical filter that detects
adversarial suffixes (for example, GCG-style optimized gibberish tails)
before messages are sent to an LLM provider.
## Scope
- Applies to channel and gateway inbound messages before provider execution.
- Does not require external model calls or heavyweight guard models.
- Disabled by default for compatibility and latency predictability.
## How It Works
The filter evaluates a trailing prompt window using:
1. Character-class bigram perplexity.
2. Suffix punctuation ratio.
3. GCG-like token pattern checks (mixed punctuation + letters + digits).
The message is blocked only when anomaly criteria are met.
## Config
```toml
[security.perplexity_filter]
enable_perplexity_filter = true
perplexity_threshold = 16.5
suffix_window_chars = 72
min_prompt_chars = 40
symbol_ratio_threshold = 0.25
```
## Latency
The implementation is O(n) over prompt length and avoids network calls.
Local debug-safe regression includes a strict `<50ms` budget test for a
typical multi-sentence prompt payload.
## Tuning Guidance
- Increase `perplexity_threshold` if you see false positives.
- Increase `symbol_ratio_threshold` to reduce blocking of technical strings.
- Increase `min_prompt_chars` to ignore short prompts where statistics are weak.
- Keep the feature disabled unless you explicitly need this extra defense layer.
