Giskard v3 is a modular rewrite for dynamic, multi-turn testing of AI agents: `pip install giskard` for checks, `giskard[scan]` for the scanner (prompt injection, jailbreaks, harmful content, RAG and quality evaluation), plus provider extras for LLM judges. Requires Python 3.12+. Optional aggregated telemetry sends no prompts or outputs and is turned off with `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` or `GISKARD_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1`. Giskard v2 remains available but is no longer actively maintained.
