compliancedoc

Overview / Description

compliancedoc — Finance Edition is a VS Code extension built for developers working in regulated financial environments. It checks your code against FINRA, SEC, SOX, PCI-DSS, GLBA, CFTC, and GDPR rules and surfaces compliance gaps directly in the editor. Four actions cover the main compliance workflow: Explain translates flagged code into plain English suitable for auditors who aren't engineers; Generate Docs auto-inserts JSDoc comments with specific regulatory rule references attached; Suggest Refactoring proposes code changes to close identified compliance gaps; and Audit Report produces a formal regulatory mapping document you can hand to a compliance team or external auditor. The free tier covers 10 operations per month — enough for spot-checks or small projects. Pro unlocks unlimited operations and lets you define custom rules for internal policies or jurisdictions not covered by the built-in frameworks. Useful for fintech engineers, developers at banks or brokerages, and any team that ships code subject to financial regulation and needs to document compliance without a dedicated legal-engineering function.
