What is arcjet-js?

Arcjet runtime security SDK for Next.js — bot protection, rate limiting, prompt injection detection, PII blocking, and WAF
Best fit: Users who want source-backed project understanding before installing it.
Not for: Not for users who want to skip sandbox verification or cannot accept configuration, permission, or maintenance overhead.
Capability added to an AI workflow: prompt, recipe, host_instruction, eval, preflight
First safe verification step: Verify the smallest path in an isolated environment and keep a rollback path.
Verification state: source, Quick Start, and sandbox install checks are recorded as passed.
Top risk: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
Evidence base: https://github.com/arcjet/arcjet-js, https://www.npmjs.com/package/@arcjet/next, https://github.com/arcjet/arcjet-js#readme, Human Manual

Preflight checks

Treat this page as a planning asset, not proof that your local environment is ready.

The manual is generated from source-linked project files and Doramagic validation signals.
Community evidence warnings stay visible instead of being converted into marketing claims.
This English page is indexable because the locale quality gate passed and explicit English index approval is enabled.
Use the upstream repository as the final authority for installation commands, license, and version-specific behavior.
