+# guardrails-output-parser
+
+Uses [guardrails-ai](https://github.com/guardrails-ai/guardrails) to validate output.
+
+This example protects against profanity, but with Guardrails you can protect against a multitude of things.
+
+If Guardrails does not find any profanity, then the translated output is returned as is.
+
+If Guardrails does find profanity, then an empty string is returned.
