You keep emphasizing "non-transparent", Squid has _many_ modes most of
which are not transparent:

   forward proxy?
   reverse proxy?
   accelerator?
   interceptor?
   offline?
   aggressive caching?
   non-caching?
   anonymous proxy?
   load balancer?
   esi gateway?
   *cap content filter?

Mentioning the mode is only useful when indicating what mode Squid _is_
running under.

DansGuardian plugs into Squid the same way whatever Squid is doing.
Using the cache_peer setting. DansGuardian is a specialized HTTP proxy
on it's own.
