+# Output Scanning
+
+Output scanning analyzes model responses for output-side risks.
+
+## What It Detects
+
+- System prompt leakage indicators.
+- Suspicious or malicious URLs.
+- PII and secret-like values with optional redaction output.
+- Harmful code patterns in generated code.
+- Relevance drift against the original user prompt.
+
+## Public API
+
+Use `AssessOutput` when you only need output analysis:
+
+```go
+shield, err := idpishield.New(idpishield.Config{Mode: idpishield.ModeBalanced})
+if err != nil {
+    panic(err)
+}
+result := shield.AssessOutput(modelResponse, userPrompt)
+```
+
+Use `AssessPair` for full input-output coverage:
+
+```go
+inputResult, outputResult := shield.AssessPair(userPrompt, modelResponse)
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+- `AllowOutputCode`: reduce sensitivity for code-only output when code is expected.
+- `BanOutputCode`: treat any code presence as suspicious.
+
+## CLI
+
+Run dedicated output scanning:
+
+```bash
+idpishield scan-output response.txt --original-prompt "summarize security controls"
+```
+
+Run output scanning through `scan`:
+
+```bash
+idpishield scan response.txt --as-output --original-prompt "summarize security controls"
+```
+
+## Output Fields
+
+Output scans populate additional fields:
+
+- `is_output_scan`
+- `pii_found`
+- `pii_types`
+- `redacted_text`
+- `relevance_score`
+- `code_detected`
+- `harmful_code_patterns`
