Husky Sight is a multilingual ModernBERT-based (mmBERT) classifier that identifies which kind of tool a request, tool call, or agent step involves. It is part of the Patronus Protect security stack and is a member of the Husky tool-analysis family, alongside Husky Paw (operation) and Husky Nose (security properties).

Intended Uses

The model maps an input text to exactly one class:

Examples:

Typical downstream uses:

• tool-risk routing,
• AI agent policy enforcement,
• approval workflows,
• runtime monitoring.

Limitations

• A positive prediction describes an apparent property of the input, not proof that an action was executed.
• The model does not track information flow across multiple agent steps.
• German and English are the primary evaluated languages; other languages run through the multilingual backbone but were not actively validated.
• False positives and negatives are possible. High-impact enforcement should combine the model with deterministic policy and calibrated thresholds.

Model Variants

• Husky Sight Tool Type Classifier: full ModernBERT model in FP32 (model.safetensors).
• Husky Sight Tool Type Classifier ONNX (FP16): onnx/onnx_fp16/model_fp16.onnx in this repository.
• Husky Sight Tool Type Classifier Edge: quantized ONNX builds (int8, int8_int4_embeddings, fp16) in a separate edge repository.
• Husky Sight Tool Type Classifier NTDB L2: lightweight multilingual cascade components under l2/ for efficient local runtime classification.

Training Data

Trained on Patronus' in-house multilingual dataset for this task, built from cleaned real-world sources plus internally generated examples. Real-world sources were judge-cleaned by content (no keyword heuristics) and contaminated rows removed.

Augmentations

To improve robustness the dataset includes modern obfuscation techniques:

• Unicode variants
• Homoglyph attacks
• Encodings (e.g. base64)
• Tag wrappers (User:, System:)
• HTML tags
• Code comments
• Spacing noise
• Leetspeak
• Case noise
• Combination of N augmentation techniques

Regularization

• Natural-language wrappers around the payload
• Counterfactual samples
• Trigger-word / spurious-correlation corpora
• ~90% similarity deduplication with a train/(val ∪ test) leakage guard

Reducing bias

All augmentations and regularizers are applied to positive and negative examples alike so the model keys on content rather than surface form.

Benchmark

Held-out test set (n = 2,914), single-label:

Per-class F1:

Usage

from transformers import pipeline

clf = pipeline("text-classification", model="patronus-studio/husky-sight-tool-type-classifier")
clf("Run kubectl scale deployment web --replicas=3")
# -> [{"label": "infra", "score": 0.98}]

ONNX

The FP16 ONNX export lives under onnx/onnx_fp16; the quantized builds (int8, int8_int4_embeddings) live in the separate Husky Sight Tool Type Classifier Edge repository. Apply a softmax over the logits and take the argmax:

from optimum.onnxruntime import ORTModelForSequenceClassification
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

model_id = "patronus-studio/husky-sight-tool-type-classifier"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = ORTModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(model_id, subfolder="onnx/onnx_fp16", file_name="model_fp16.onnx")

inputs = tokenizer("Run kubectl scale deployment web --replicas=3", return_tensors="pt")
logits = model(**inputs).logits.detach().cpu().numpy()[0]
print(model.config.id2label[int(logits.argmax())])
