Documentation
Everything needed to get the protection core running inside your own system and keep it current. Short pages, no marketing.
Last updated 17 August 2026
Start here
- Install & connect — put the core in your project and pair it with your account.
- Signals & reporting — what the core sends, what it never sends, and how to read it.
- Updates & releases — signed releases, rollouts, deadlines and recovery.
What the core is
The core is a package that runs inside your own application. It makes its own decisions locally — blocking, throttling, challenging — without asking us first. We are not a proxy and never sit between your visitors and your site.
Our side does three things: it stores the signals your install reports, it publishes signed policy and release updates, and it gives you a panel showing your own system. If our side is unreachable, your protection keeps running unchanged.
Requirements
- A Node-compatible runtime for your application.
- PostgreSQL (Supabase works) for the core's own state tables.
- Outbound HTTPS to isharpai.com for reporting and updates. Inbound access is never required.
