gliguard-300M-onnx

ONNX export of fastino/gliguard-LLMGuardrails-300M (GLiGuard — a GLiNER2-based encoder safety classifier, DeBERTa-v3-base backbone) for fast, PyTorch-free CPU inference with ONNX Runtime. Built for lightweight LLM guardrail layers: prompt safety, toxicity (15 categories), jailbreak strategy detection (12 strategies), response safety, and refusal detection — all scored in one forward pass.

Graph interface

inputs:  input_ids       int64[1, seq]
         attention_mask  int64[1, seq]
         label_positions int64[n_labels]   # positions of each [L] token in the sequence
output:  logits          float32[n_labels] # one logit per candidate label

The graph is encoder → gather(label_positions) → classifier MLP. Activation (softmax for single-label tasks, sigmoid for multi-label) is applied by the caller — see config.json for per-task activation, thresholds, and label sets.

Encoding scheme (from config.json)

GLiNER2 packs the task schema and the text into one sequence. Per task: ( [P] task_name ( [L] label1 [L] label2 ... ) ), tasks joined by [SEP_STRUCT], then [SEP_TEXT], then the text — word-split by the regex in config.json (lowercased), each word tokenized independently (no BOS/EOS added). label_positions are the subword positions of the [L] tokens.

For response-side tasks, format the text as Prompt: {prompt}\nResponse: {response}.

        print(task["name"], (task["labels"][int(seg.argmax())], float(probs.max())))

Parity vs the original model

Exported with torch.onnx.export (opset 17) from the original checkpoint; verified against gliner2 reference outputs on the bundled fixtures:

Dynamic int8 quantization (QInt8 and QUInt8, all op subsets) breaks verdict parity on this model (probability swings up to 0.5) and is deliberately not shipped. Static QDQ quantization with calibration may work; untested.

Provenance

• Source checkpoint: fastino/gliguard-LLMGuardrails-300M (Apache-2.0)
• Export: encoder.last_hidden_state → index_select(label_positions) → classifier MLP, wrapped as a single graph; dynamic axes on sequence length and label count
• No fine-tuning, no weight modification beyond dtype conversion (fp16 variant)
