Code-as-Auditor: Executable Compliance Reasoning via Regulation-to-Code

Code-as-Auditor is an LLM-based framework that transforms regulatory information into formal checklists and executable decision trees, encoding rules as interpretable code. During inference, the model expands each checklist item into factual and counterfactual questions, guiding reasoning over case-specific evidence and potential violations. This pipeline moves from evidence identification to rule application and final decision-making, with a self‑verification loop that enhances logical consistency and traceability, leading to more accurate and evidence‑backed compliance evaluations in privacy and data protection scenarios.
