## 🎯 Zero-Tier Word Filter

The zero-tier filter provides ultra-fast detection of obvious toxic content with comprehensive obfuscation support.

### Supported Obfuscation Patterns

| Pattern | Examples |
|---------|----------|
| **Asterisk replacement** | f*ck, sh*t, b*tch, c*nt |
| **Hyphen replacement** | f-ck, sh-t, b-tch, c-nt |
| **Number replacement** | f1ck, sh1t, b1tch, c1nt |
| **Exclamation replacement** | f!ck, sh!t, b!tch, c!nt |
| **Multiple asterisks** | f**k, sh**t, b**ch, c**t |

### Word Categories

The filter includes 53 categories of toxic words:

- **Explicit profanity**: fuck, shit, damn, hell
- **Slurs and insults**: bitch, cunt, faggot, nigger
- **Death wishes**: KYS, kill yourself, go die
- **Aggressive commands**: uninstall, delete, uninstall
- **Skill insults**: noob, trash, garbage, worthless

### Performance

- **Speed**: <1ms processing time
- **Accuracy**: 100% detection of explicit toxic words
- **Memory**: Minimal memory footprint
- **Reliability**: Fail-safe operation

## 🔍 Error Handling

The bot includes comprehensive error handling with graceful degradation:

### Custom Exceptions

```python
from message_validator import (
    ToxicValidationError,
    ModelLoadError,
    InputValidationError
)

try:
    result = validator.validate_message("test")
except InputValidationError as e:
    print(f"Input error: {e}")
except ModelLoadError as e:
    print(f"Model error: {e}")
except ToxicValidationError as e:
    print(f"Validation error: {e}")
```

### Graceful Degradation

| Failure Scenario | Fallback Behavior |
|------------------|-------------------|
| **Model loading fails** | Uses fallback methods |
| **Word filter fails** | Continues with ML pipeline |
| **RAG fails** | Uses fine-tuned model only |
| **Input validation fails** | Returns error result |
| **GPU unavailable** | Falls back to CPU |

### Error Result Structure

```python
# When an error occurs, a safe result is returned
result = ValidationResult(
    is_toxic=False,
    confidence=0.0,
    result_code=0,
    result_text='error',
    processing_time_ms=12.34,
    pipeline_stage='error',
    error_message='Detailed error description'
)
```

## 📊 Monitoring & Logging

### Logging Configuration

Logs are automatically written to:
- **Console output** (with Unicode-safe handling)
- **toxic_validation.log** file (UTF-8 encoded)

```python
import logging

# Log levels: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL
# Default: INFO level
```

### Performance Monitoring

```python
# Get real-time metrics
metrics = validator.get_performance_metrics()
print(f"Average processing time: {metrics.average_processing_time_ms:.2f}ms")
print(f"Word filter efficiency: {metrics.word_filter_hits}/{metrics.total_requests}")
print(f"Success rate: {metrics.successful_requests}/{metrics.total_requests}")
```

### Health Monitoring

```python
# Check system health
health = validator.health_check()
if health['status'] == 'healthy':
    print("System is operational")
else:
    print(f"System issues: {health['error']}")
```

## 🔧 Advanced Usage

### Batch Processing

```python
messages = ["message1", "message2", "message3"]
results = []

for message in messages:
    result = validator.validate_message(message)
    results.append(result)

# Analyze batch results
toxic_count = sum(1 for r in results if r.is_toxic)
avg_confidence = sum(r.confidence for r in results) / len(results)
avg_processing_time = sum(r.processing_time_ms for r in results) / len(results)

print(f"Toxic messages: {toxic_count}/{len(results)}")
print(f"Average confidence: {avg_confidence:.3f}")
print(f"Average processing time: {avg_processing_time:.2f}ms")
```

### Custom Word Filter

```python
# Add custom toxic words
validator.toxic_words["custom_word"] = ["custom", "cust0m", "c*stom"]

# Remove existing words
del validator.toxic_words["some_word"]
```

validator = Message_Validation()

# Adjust confidence thresholds
validator.config['confidence_thresholds']['embedding_high'] = 0.8

# Disable RAG for speed
validator.config['pipeline_enabled']['rag'] = False
```

#### 4. Unicode Encoding Issues

**Problem**: Unicode errors in Windows console

**Solutions**:
```python
# The system automatically handles this, but you can also:
import sys
import codecs
sys.stdout = codecs.getwriter('utf-8')(sys.stdout.detach())
```

### Performance Optimization

#### 1. GPU Acceleration

```python
# Check GPU availability
import torch
print(f"CUDA available: {torch.cuda.is_available()}")
print(f"GPU count: {torch.cuda.device_count()}")
print(f"Current device: {torch.cuda.current_device()}")
```

#### 2. Batch Processing

```python
# Process multiple messages efficiently
messages = ["msg1", "msg2", "msg3", "msg4", "msg5"]
results = [validator.validate_message(msg) for msg in messages]
```

#### 3. Caching

```python
# Cache frequently checked messages
from functools import lru_cache

@lru_cache(maxsize=1000)
def cached_validation(message):
    return validator.validate_message(message)
```
