### Straja Guard

Straja Guard uses Straja’s Guard API + Toolgate to enforce pre-model, post-model,
and pre-execution tool checks via HTTP hooks.

Configuration example:

```json
{
"plugins": {
"entries": {
"straja-guard": {
"enabled": true,
"config": {
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:8080",
"apiKey": "project-api-key-from-straja-config",
"timeoutMs": 15000,
"failOpen": true,
"guardrailPriority": 80,
"stages": {
"beforeRequest": { "enabled": true, "mode": "block" },
"beforeToolCall": { "enabled": true, "mode": "block" },
"afterResponse": { "enabled": true, "mode": "monitor" }
}
}
}
}
}
}
```

Notes:

- `baseUrl` defaults to `http://localhost:8080`.
- `apiKey` should match one of the `projects[].api_keys` values in your Straja config. You can optionally create a dedicated project for OpenClaw in Straja's config to keep usage isolated.
- Toolgate blocks return errors; warnings are logged and allowed.

## Per-stage options

Each stage can be configured with:

# Straja Guard (OpenClaw)

Integrates Straja Guard API + Toolgate with OpenClaw guardrail hooks to enforce:

- pre-model prompt checks
- post-model response checks
- pre-execution tool checks

## Configuration

```json
{
"plugins": {
"entries": {
"straja-guard": {
"enabled": true,
"config": {
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:8080",
"apiKey": "project-api-key-from-straja-config",
"timeoutMs": 15000,
"failOpen": true,
"guardrailPriority": 80,
"stages": {
"beforeRequest": { "enabled": true, "mode": "block" },
"beforeToolCall": { "enabled": true, "mode": "block" },
"afterResponse": { "enabled": true, "mode": "monitor" }
}
}
}
}
}
}
```

## Notes

- `baseUrl` defaults to `http://localhost:8080`.
- `apiKey` should match one of the `projects[].api_keys` values in your Straja config.
- `failOpen` controls whether hook failures allow traffic by default.
- Post-model blocking is skipped for streaming responses and logged as a warning.
