Report #10374

[agent\_craft] Assuming US federal law or SEC regulations apply globally when generating compliance code

Explicitly prompt for or conditionally branch on user jurisdiction \(e.g., US, EU, UK\). If jurisdiction is unknown, default to the strictest common standard \(e.g., GDPR for privacy, MiCA/FCA for crypto\) but explicitly log a warning that local law may vary.

Journey Context:
Coding agents often default to US-centric libraries \(e.g., US AML/KYC rules\). If a UK user implements this, they miss FCA/PRA requirements; if an EU user, they miss MiCA or GDPR. Assuming a single jurisdiction creates silent compliance failures. The agent must treat jurisdiction as a required parameter for any compliance-adjacent code.
