Legal Sanity Review Workflow

Version: 1.0.0 Category: Workflows Triggers: Before cross-review (Codex/Gemini), PR creation, code porting

Purpose

Ensures no client project names, proprietary tool references, or legally sensitive content reaches the cross-review stage or a pull request. This is a mandatory pre-gate — if the legal scan fails, the review cycle does not proceed.

               Cross-Review Cycle

Integration Points

Cross-Review Pre-Gate

The legal scan runs before the first Codex/Gemini iteration:

Step	Gate	Action
1	Legal Scan	Run `legal-sanity-scan.sh --diff-only`
2	Pass?	If no → fix and re-scan
3	Codex Review	First cross-review iteration
4	Gemini Review	Parallel cross-review

PR Pre-Hook

Integrated into pr-manager.md hooks:

./scripts/legal/legal-sanity-scan.sh --diff-only || (echo "Legal sanity FAILED" && exit 1)

Manual Invocation

# Full repo scan
./scripts/legal/legal-sanity-scan.sh --repo=worldenergydata

# All submodules
./scripts/legal/legal-sanity-scan.sh --all

Exit Conditions

Condition	Code	Action
PASS	0	Proceed to cross-review
BLOCK	1	Fix violations, re-scan
SCAN_ERROR	2	Check script/config, retry

Violation Response

When the scan finds block-severity violations:

Stop — do not proceed to cross-review or PR creation
Report — list each violation with file:line and pattern
Fix — replace client references with generic equivalents
Re-scan — confirm all violations are resolved
Continue — proceed to the cross-review cycle

Configuration

Deny lists control what patterns are scanned:

Global: .legal-deny-list.yaml (workspace root)
Per-project: <submodule>/.legal-deny-list.yaml

See .claude/rules/legal-compliance.md for the full policy.

Use this workflow whenever committing AI-generated or ported code to ensure legal compliance before review.
