AI prompt data redaction tools

The cluster comprises privacy tools that detect and redact sensitive data—like API keys, tokens, passwords, and personal identifiers—on-device before it reaches AI models or other untrusted destinations, often as browser extensions or desktop utilities. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from, as only 4 dated entries exist, none before the index start, with additional members undated. Traction leaders are openmasq, shim-guard, and Secureintent-Extension, each with 6 activity stars.
