Get a AiCustomGuardrail plugin

## Response `200`

AiCustomGuardrail plugin

- AiCustomGuardrailPlugin — A Plugin entity represents a plugin configuration that will be executed during the HTTP request/response lifecycle. It is how you can add functionalities to Services that run behind Kong, like Authentication or Rate Limiting for example. You can find more information about how to install and what values each plugin takes by visiting the [Kong Hub](https://docs.konghq.com/hub/). When adding a Plugin Configuration to a Service, every request made by a client to that Service will run said Plugin. If a Plugin needs to be tuned to different values for some specific Consumers, you can do so by creating a separate plugin instance that specifies both the Service and the Consumer, through the `service` and `consumer` fields.
  - `condition` string, nullable — An expression used for conditional control over plugin execution. If the expression evaluates to `true` during the request flow, the plugin is executed; otherwise, it is skipped.
  - `created_at` integer, nullable — Unix epoch when the resource was created.
  - `enabled` boolean, nullable — Whether the plugin is applied.
  - `id` string, nullable — A string representing a UUID (universally unique identifier).
  - `instance_name` string, nullable — A unique string representing a UTF-8 encoded name.
  - `name` 'ai-custom-guardrail', required — The name of the Plugin that's going to be added. Currently, the Plugin must be installed in every Kong instance separately.
  - `ordering` object, nullable
    - `after` object
      - `access` string[]
    - `before` object
      - `access` string[]
  - `partials` object[] — A list of partials to be used by the plugin.
    - `id` string — A string representing a UUID (universally unique identifier).
    - `name` string — A unique string representing a UTF-8 encoded name.
    - `path` string
  - `tags` string[], nullable — An optional set of strings associated with the Plugin for grouping and filtering.
  - `updated_at` integer, nullable — Unix epoch when the resource was last updated.
  - `config` object, required
    - `allow_masking` boolean — Allow to masking the request/response instead of blocking it. Streaming will be disabled if this is enabled.
    - `custom_metrics` object — A list of custom metrics to be recorded.
    - `functions` object — Custom functions to be used in expression templates.
    - `guarding_mode` 'BOTH' | 'INPUT' | 'OUTPUT' — The guardrail mode to use for the request
    - `metrics` object
      - `block_detail` string — Metric to indicate the detail for blocking the input.
      - `block_reason` string — Metric to indicate the reason for blocking the input.
      - `masked` string — Metric to indicate whether the input was masked.
    - `params` object — Parameters to be used in the guardrail service request. Keys are the parameter name and values can be either Lua expressions in the form `$(some_lua_expression)`or string. For expression, it will be evaluated as the value for the corresponding key. For string, it will be attempted to be parsed as string in JSON format, otherwise it will be used as is.
    - `request` object, required — Configuration specific to guardrail request.
      - `auth` object — Authentication configuration for HTTP request.
        - `location` 'body' | 'header' | 'query' — Specify whether the 'param_name' and 'param_value' options go in a query string, or the POST form/JSON body.

        - `value` string — Specify the full token value for 'name'.
      - `body` object — A map used to evaluate a JSON object. Keys are the field names in the new object, and values can be either Lua expressions in the form `$(some_lua_expression)`or string. For expression, it will be evaluated as the value for the corresponding key. For string, it will be decoded as string in JSON format or be used as is.
      - `headers` object — A map used to evaluate a JSON object. Keys are the field names in the new object, and values can be either Lua expressions in the form `$(some_lua_expression)`or string.

      - `block_message` string, required — template or string to evaluate block_message field
    - `response_buffer_size` number — The amount of bytes receiving from upstream to be buffered before sending to the guardrail service. This only applies to the response content guard.
    - `ssl_verify` boolean — Whether to verify SSL certificate when Kong makes request to guardrail service.
