"# Secure Agent Memory with Superagent + Hindsight\n",
"\n",
"This notebook shows how to protect your agent's memory from prompt injection and PII leakage using Superagent's safety SDK alongside Hindsight.\n",
"\n",
"You'll learn how to:\n",
"- **Guard** memory inputs against prompt injection attacks\n",
"- **Redact** PII (emails, SSNs, API keys) before storing memories\n",
"- Handle blocked inputs gracefully\n",
"- Configure which safety checks run on which operations\n",
"\n",
"## Prerequisites\n",
"\n",
"Make sure you have Hindsight running. The easiest way is via Docker:\n",
"\n",
"```bash\n",
"export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key\n",
"\n",
"docker run --rm -it --pull always -p 8888:8888 -p 9999:9999 \\\n",
" -e HINDSIGHT_API_LLM_API_KEY=$OPENAI_API_KEY \\\n",
" -e HINDSIGHT_API_LLM_MODEL=o3-mini \\\n",
" -v $HOME/.hindsight-docker:/home/hindsight/.pg0 \\\n",
" ghcr.io/vectorize-io/hindsight:latest\n",
"```\n",
"\n",
"You'll also need a [Superagent API key](https://www.superagent.sh) — set it as `SUPERAGENT_API_KEY`."
