feat(studio): toggle guardrail rails explicitly, starting with self check (ASTD-339) - #1353
Merged
Merged
Conversation
…heck Replace the read-only Configuration tab with a rail list: each guardrail is an explicit definition that owns the coupled edits the engine requires, so one switch writes the flow and the prompt its action renders together. Adds the RailDefinition structure and implements self check as the first rail. Remaining panels are replaced by a read-only Configuration JSON view. Signed-off-by: Alex Ray <alray@nvidia.com>

Replace the shared RailSettingsPanel with a renderSettings render prop on RailDefinition. A rail now owns its trigger and whatever that trigger opens, because what each rail configures differs too much for one shell to fit; a rail with no settings simply omits it. Self check moves into SelfCheckSettings, which keeps a modal side panel — every Studio side panel carrying a footer is modal, and a non-modal one sits in normal page stacking where page-level fixed elements float over its actions. Rename the confirm button to Apply: it only updates the working copy, and nothing reaches the server until Save Guardrail. Signed-off-by: Alex Ray <alray@nvidia.com>

…tion Drop the flat generalInstruction/sampleConversation fields. They duplicated config.instructions and config.sample_conversation, and applyFormToConfig had to overwrite the document with them on save — so anything else writing those keys was silently clobbered. Both text fields now write through the same config controller the rails use. Also drop RailDefinition.description, which nothing read, and trim doc comments that recorded design rationale better kept in the pull request. Signed-off-by: Alex Ray <alray@nvidia.com>
With only a max-height, CodeMirror sized itself to the whole document — a real config rendered the editor 3278px tall inside a 560px container and spilled out of the panel rather than scrolling. Verified against a running Studio. Also correct the hasStoredSettings contract to match its implementation (it reports stored settings regardless of whether the rail is running; the list owns the policy of only offering discard when it is off) and mark the rail scope and variable lists readonly.

The Input and Output badges rendered `rail.scopes` unconditionally, so they described what a rail was capable of rather than what it was doing. A stakeholder read them as state and was misled, and separately had no way to tell a rail running on input only from one running on both without opening the settings side panel — which is the difference that defines what the rail does. Badges now carry that state: solid green when the stage is running, solid gray when it is not, matching the on/off treatment in DataPrivacyPanel. The visible text is the stage name either way, so the state also goes in aria-label rather than living in colour alone. To make that possible RailDefinition trades its rail-level isEnabled for a per-scope isScopeEnabled, and RailsList derives the rail-level answer as `scopes.some(isScopeEnabled)`. Deriving it is the point: two independently declared predicates could disagree, and the switch and the badges would then contradict each other. The master switch stays all-or-nothing, so an off/on round trip re-enables every stage and loses a per-stage selection. Prompts survive it; the flow selection does not. An absent flow leaves no trace in the config, so remembering it would mean inventing state to store — accepted as a tradeoff instead. Signed-off-by: Alex Ray <alray@nvidia.com>

getErrorMessage ended with `fallbackMessage ?? error.message`, so any error that was not an AxiosError reported the call site's generic string and threw away its own. A plain Error written to be read never reached the user. This surfaced on the guardrail test runner, where a precise "config has no usable model to run checks against" reached the toast as "Unknown error". Callers pass a fallback for errors that carry nothing useful, not to overwrite a message that says something — so take the message when there is one and fall back only when there isn't. All 20 call sites are toast or inline error displays where the real message is strictly better. Signed-off-by: Alex Ray <alray@nvidia.com>
Running a guardrail's tests failed for any config without a `models[]` entry: resolveConfigModel threw before a request was ever made, so no POST /checks fired and the failure read as a bare toast. Studio offered no way to set a model, and CreateGuardrailModal created configs without one, so every config authored in Studio hit this. Add a Main Model field to the Configuration tab and seed new configs with a resolved workspace default, so the config carries the model its tests run against. Also drop resolveConfigModel's second fallback. It selected the first entry declaring any model, which for the common shape — a config declaring only task LLMs — meant sending system/nemoguard-8b-content-safety as the generation model: a run that looks fine and means nothing. Only the `main` entry is eligible now, and Run is disabled with an explanation when there isn't one rather than failing once per check. A note on where the model lives, since the code reads oddly without it: the service treats a missing `main` entry as normal and always routes on request.model (nemo_guardrails_plugin/rails.py:236), injecting a placeholder when a main entry omits a name. The name stored on the config is therefore how Studio remembers the user's choice, not how the service routes. resolveConfigModel says so at length so nobody deletes the field on the grounds that it is ignored. Default resolution follows the Data Designer auto-fill pattern: prefer a named default, else the first model that has a provider, else nothing — an empty required field beats seeding a name that fails at run time.

Summary
The Configuration tab was read-only: it rendered a guardrail config across six panels but the only editable fields were two textareas. This makes rails editable by modelling each one explicitly — a rail is a named object you switch on and off, and one switch performs every edit the engine requires. Self check is implemented as the first rail; the structure is what the remaining rails plug into.
It also makes the tab's companion — Test and Validate — actually work. Running a guardrail's tests failed for any config without a
models[]entry, so every config authored in Studio was born unable to run its own tests. The tab now owns a Main Model field, and new configs are seeded with a resolved workspace default.Screen.Recording.2026-08-21.at.12.02.19.PM.mov
Changes
routes/guardrails/rails/: aRailDefinitionownsisScopeEnabled/setEnabled/hasStoredSettings/clearSettings, all pure overRailsConfig.configOps.ts, the immutable flow and prompt primitives every rail shares.self check input/self check outputflows and theself_check_input/self_check_outputprompts together, seeded from the platform's own defaults inapp/seeding.py. The rail adds nomodels[]entry of its own and has no model picker in its settings panel, because self check runs on whichever model is already serving the request. (Distinct from the config-level Main Model added below: that names the model the whole config's tests run against, not a task LLM bound to one rail.)Input/Outputare solid green when that stage is running and solid gray when it is not, matching the on/off treatment inDataPrivacyPanel. Both stages stay listed either way, so a rail running on input only is distinguishable from one running on both without opening the settings panel — that difference is what the rail is. The visible text is the stage name in both states, so the state also goes inaria-labelrather than living in colour alone.RailDefinition.renderSettingsis an optional render prop: a rail owns its trigger and whatever that trigger opens — a modal side panel, a popover, an inline expander, or nothing at all.RailsListrenders the shared left column (switch, name, stage badges) and knows nothing about panels. Self check suppliesSelfCheckSettings, which is modal because every Studio side panel carrying a footer is modal; a non-modal one sits in normal page stacking, where page-level fixed elements float over its actions.configcontroller the rails use, so there is one representation ofinstructions/sample_conversationrather than a flat copy the save path had to overwrite.CodeEditor, so the fields Studio cannot configure yet stay visible and provably preserved.Behaviour worth calling out: switching a rail off removes its flows but keeps its prompts, so a tuned prompt survives an off/on round trip. That leaves an "off but holding settings" state, which is when the row offers to discard them.
Model selection for guardrail tests
Added in
319ba31fand9d890ac8, after the review rounds below.Clicking Run N Tests on
self-checkfailed withUnknown error. Two independent defects, one masking the other:resolveConfigModelthrew before any request was made — noPOST /checksever fired — because the config had nomodels[]entry. Studio offered no way to add one andCreateGuardrailModalcreated configs without one, so this was the default state of anything authored in Studio.getErrorMessageended withfallbackMessage ?? error.message, so a plainErroralways reported the call site's generic string and discarded its own. The precise message never reached the toast.What changed:
WorkspaceModelSelect. It writes through the sameconfigcontroller as every other field, so the document stays the form's only representation.model_provider, else nothing. FollowingDataDesignerJobBuildRoute/models.ts, a provider-less model is never seeded — auto-fill happens without the user asking, and seeding an undeployed model hands them a config whose only symptom is a failed test run. An empty required field beats a name that fails later. The duplicate path is untouched; it inherits the source's models.resolveConfigModelno longer falls back to any model that declares a reference. For the common shape — a config declaring only task LLMs — that fallback selectedsystem/nemoguard-8b-content-safetyas the generation model, producing a run that looks fine and means nothing. Only themainentry is eligible now.getErrorMessagenow prefers the error's own message. This is repo-wide in effect — all 20 call sites are toast or inline error displays where the real message is strictly better, and it is its own commit so it can be reverted alone.Where the model lives, and why the code says so at length. The service treats a missing
mainentry as normal and always routes onrequest.model(nemo_guardrails_plugin/rails.py:236— "model name: alwaysrequest_body['model']"), injecting a placeholder when amainentry omits a name (llmrails_cache.py:185). The name stored on the config is therefore how Studio remembers the user's choice, not how the service routes.resolveConfigModelcarries a comment saying this explicitly, so nobody later deletes the field on the grounds that the service ignores it. This was a deliberate call — a run-time picker on the Test tab was the alternative.Type of Change

CodeRabbit's two actionable findings are addressed in

Now a definite height, verified scrolling (1628px of content in a 394px viewport).hasStoredSettingscontract. The implementation reports stored settings regardless of whether the rail is running, which contradicted its doc comment. Corrected the contract rather than the code: it stays a pure predicate, andRailsListowns the policy of offering discard only for a switched-off rail, sinceclearSettingswould otherwise stop a live one.scopesandvariablesarereadonly.Stakeholder review is addressed in
6bf894a:rail.scopesunconditionally, so they described capability while sitting exactly where state belongs — and a rail enabled for input only looked identical to one enabled for both. Badges now carry per-stage state, so the thing that defines what a rail does is legible from the row.RailDefinitiontrades rail-levelisEnabledfor per-scopeisScopeEnabled, andRailsListderives the rail-level answer asscopes.some(isScopeEnabled). Deriving it is the point: two independently declared predicates could disagree, and the switch and the badges would then contradict each other.Known limitations
setEnabled(data, true)turns all stages on, so a user who had input only and toggles the rail off and back on gets both. Prompts survive; the flow selection does not. An absent flow leaves no trace in the config, so restoring the prior selection would mean inventing state to store it in — accepted as a tradeoff rather than carried. It was invisible before this change and is visible now that the badges track state.rails.<stage>: { flows: [] }behind. Deliberate — the stage object can carryparallel/streamingsettings no rail owns, and dropping it would discard them — and it is inert to the engine, but it does add noise to the JSON. Pruning a stage that empties and holds nothing butflowsis a candidate follow-up.scopesnow does double duty: the ordered stage list and the iteration source for state lookup. Fine for self check; a rail whose stages are not uniform (content safety binds a task model per stage) may want richer entries than a bareRailScope[].mainentry, so Run stays disabled with its explanation. Deliberately not auto-prefilled on load: a config that marks itself unsaved the moment you open it is worse than an empty required field.
