Privacy Parser — PII Span Extraction

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection.

privacy-parser is the inverse of OpenAI's Privacy Filter. Where the filter masks PII with <REDACTED>, this library returns structured spans — label, text, and character offsets — using the same 1.5B opf model weights and label taxonomy.

Installation
