All-in-one Docker image with prebuilt language support (#42)
* All-in-one Docker image with dev mode support
Simplify deployment with a single container that includes both the proxy
and Presidio PII detection. No git clone required - just docker run.
Changes:
- Combined Dockerfile: Multi-stage build with Presidio + Bun in one container
- supervisord: Process manager for running both services
- Prebuilt images: ghcr.io/sgasser/pasteguard:en (~2.7GB) and :eu (~12GB)
- Release workflow: GitHub Actions to build en/eu images on version tags
- Dev mode: docker compose up presidio -d for local development with hot-reload
- Updated docs: curl-based installation, no cloning needed for production
- Language models: Changed from _md to _lg for better PII detection accuracy
Image tags:
- en (default/latest): English only
- eu: European languages (en, de, es, fr, it, nl, pl, pt, ro)
Keep docker-compose.yml in root for convenience (docker compose up works).
Update all path references in workflow, configs, and docs.
* Fix CI: update Dockerfile path
* Include config.example.yaml in Docker image for zero-config startup
* Simplify docs: zero-config quickstart
* Add missing ENV detection entities to config example
Add ENV_PASSWORD, ENV_SECRET, and CONNECTION_STRING to the
secrets_detection entities section to match what's documented
and implemented.
* Auto-configure languages per Docker image
- Add PASTEGUARD_LANGUAGES env var to Dockerfile (set from LANGUAGES build arg)
- Update config.example.yaml to use env var with fallback to 'en'
- Support comma-separated string for languages config (e.g., "en,de,fr")
- EN image now auto-enables English, EU image auto-enables all 9 EU languages
Users can still override via config.yaml with array syntax if needed.
* Update docs: languages are auto-configured per image
* Clarify runtime vs build-time env vars in docs
* Update docs: languages are auto-configured per Docker image
* Remove confusing env var override example from docs
* List specific EU languages in docs instead of 'All 9'
Config changes:
- Rename providers.upstream to providers.openai for clarity
- Remove routing config section (simplified to: PII → local, no PII → openai)
- Move local provider to top-level config (not under providers)
- Change default secrets action from block to redact
Proxy changes:
- Replace specific /models route with wildcard /* proxy
- Supports all OpenAI endpoints: /models, /embeddings, /audio/*, etc.
Documentation:
- Update all docs to reflect new config structure
- Remove docs/api-reference/models.mdx (now covered by wildcard proxy)

Fix overlapping entity conflict resolution (#33)
Implement Presidio-style conflict resolution for overlapping PII entities.
Problem: Presidio returns overlapping entities (e.g., both "Eric" and "Eric's")
which caused text corruption during masking.
Solution: Two-phase algorithm matching Presidio's Anonymizer logic:
1. Merge overlapping entities of same type (expand boundaries, keep highest score)
2. Remove conflicting entities of different types (contained or lower score loses)
- Add conflict-resolver.ts with resolveConflicts() and resolveConflictsSimple()
- Replace old removeOverlappingEntities with new conflict resolver
- Add 18 tests covering all conflict scenarios
- Delete old entities.ts (replaced by conflict-resolver.ts)

Fix overlapping entity masking (#33)
Presidio can return overlapping PII detections (e.g., both "Eric" and
"Eric's" as separate PERSON entities). When both were masked, the string
positions became invalid, corrupting the output.
Added removeOverlappingEntities() to filter overlaps before masking:
- Sort by start position (longer first if same start)
- Keep only non-overlapping entities

fix: use [[]] delimiters for placeholders to prevent HTML encoding issues (#38)
Fixes #36 - HTML-encoded placeholders now unmask correctly
Changes:
- Changed placeholder format from <TYPE_N> to [[TYPE_N]]
- Created src/constants/placeholders.ts as single source of truth
- Removed configurable redact_placeholder (was bug - streaming hardcoded [[)
- Updated dashboard regex for yellow highlighting
- Added tests for HTML/JSON/URL contexts
The [[]] delimiters are safe in HTML, JSON, and URLs - they don't get
entity-encoded like <> did.

Always run language detection even with single language configured (#26)
Previously, language detection was skipped when only one language was
configured, returning the configured language directly. This made it
impossible to detect misconfiguration (e.g., only EN configured but
receiving DE text).
Now language detection always runs, providing:
- Actual detected language in logs (detectedLanguage field)
- Confidence score for debugging
- usedFallback=true when detected language isn't configured
Performance impact is negligible (~0.01-0.05ms per detection).

Fix PII detection to scan all message roles (#25)
Previously, PII detection only scanned the last user message initially,
then did a full scan only if PII was found. This caused PII in system
messages (e.g., RAG context from PDFs) to be missed entirely when the
user message contained no PII.
Changes:
- Consolidate analyzeMessages() to always scan all messages
- Scan system, developer, user, and assistant roles
- Remove analyzeAllMessages() as it's no longer needed
- Simplify decision.ts by removing the redundant full scan call
This ensures PII in system messages (common in RAG patterns) is properly
detected and masked before being sent to upstream LLMs.

You are right, and I (and claude) addressed these issues.

2. PII masking (masking.ts):
- Actually mask array content instead of returning original
- Add per-part offset tracking for accurate entity positions
- Properly handle multimodal arrays with text and images
3. Tests:
- Add content.test.ts for text extraction utilities
- Add multimodal.test.ts with integration tests

fix: Add support for multimodal content (text + images)
Fixes crashes when processing OpenAI Chat Completion requests with

- Add extractTextContent() utility to safely extract text from both

- Update PII detection to handle multimodal messages
- Update secrets detection to extract text from array content
- Update message redaction to preserve images while redacting text
- Fix dashboard display to show readable content instead of [object Object]
This enables full support for OpenAI's multimodal API format while
maintaining PII/secrets protection on text portions.
