Repetition Penalty
A repetition penalty is a decoding control that lowers the probability of reusing recently generated tokens or phrases, reducing looping and repetitive LLM outputs. It...
Token Budget
A token budget caps how many tokens an LLM app can use across prompt, retrieved context, and output. It’s a key control for cost and...
Agent Permissioning
Agent permissioning enforces least-privilege access for tool-using AI agents by controlling which tools and actions are allowed, what data scopes apply, and when human approvals...
LLM Rate Limiting
LLM rate limiting restricts requests or token usage per user/tenant to protect latency, control cost, and reduce abuse. Because LLM cost scales with tokens and...
Safety Classifier
A safety classifier detects policy-violating or sensitive content in AI systems (inputs, outputs, or agent tool actions) and is used to block, route, redact, or...
Agent Self-Reflection
Agent self-reflection adds a critique-and-revise step to an AI agent’s loop, where the agent evaluates its own plan or answer against a rubric (constraints, evidence,...
Vision-Language Model
A vision-language model (VLM) jointly processes images and text to enable tasks like image captioning, visual Q&A, and image-grounded chat. Many VLMs combine a vision...
Tool Credential Vault
A tool credential vault securely stores and rotates API keys and tokens for tool-enabled LLM apps so secrets never enter prompts. The agent plans tool...
