LLaMA Guard 3
Llama Guard 3 is a previous Meta safety snapshot, not the live Llama Guard card. Rechecked 2026-08-17: the live Hugging Face card is Llama Guard 4 12B, and llama.com now leads with Llama 4. There is no separate Llama 4 page on this site. Drop leftover latest safety model / fully open MIT / millisecond detection / vs OpenAI Moderation equal accuracy.
Compare GPT-5.6 Sol if you wanted a current frontier chat model, and Llama 3.2 Vision if you wanted another leftover Meta snapshot rather than this Guard row.
Key Features
- Previous Guard snapshot: Leftover copy described an 8B multilingual moderator. Recheck the live Guard 4 12B card before you treat Guard 3 as current.
- Not the 2026 safety default: Llama Guard 4 12B is the live card we opened.
- License is community, not MIT: Recheck the Llama community license. Do not call it fully commercial MIT.
- No invented latency or accuracy: Do not paste leftover millisecond detection or "equal to OpenAI Moderation" unless you re-run a first-party card.
Use Cases
- People with a Guard 3 bookmark who need the catalog corrected.
- People comparing leftover Guard 3 vs live Guard 4 12B.
- People who were about to call it Meta's current safety default.
Limitation: We did not re-download Guard 3 weights or invent a 2026 per-token price.

Hook OpenCode Go into Codex on Windows. Do Not Open a Second Toolkit.

You already pay for OpenCode Go, Grok, and Z.ai, but the Codex picker still shows mostly GPT. The community project codex-router does not teach another install ritual. It puts subscriptions you already bought back into the selector, keeps keys on the machine, and leaves native GPT alone.
