Not the endpoint yet — the bigger knowledge lever first. The Advisor can say "I need 5 answers" but does not yet decide what it can find out by ITSELF. The Silent Knowledge Pass runs in front of the Advisor and, from signals existing scanners/parsers already produce (website, repository, documents, product data), deterministically derives capabilities the company demonstrably HAS + product facts that drive scope — so every recognised item shrinks the delta and removes a question. compliance/onboarding/silent_intake.py: silent_intake(signals, signal_map) -> detected_capabilities (+ evidence already in hand) + product_facts. The signal->conclusion map is curated DATA (knowledge/onboarding/intake_signal_map.yaml), signals are injected (scanners are upstream). Pure, deterministic, no LLM. advisor_start gains detected_capabilities (folded into the profile at HIGH confidence -> covered, not asked) and an auto_detected result + headline. The experience flips from a question wall to "we already recognised 4 capabilities, 2 product facts and have 4 pieces of evidence in hand — only these few remain". Order now: Silent Pass -> #58 endpoint/frontend -> #59 empirical loop. NOT new architecture, just an orchestration step in front. Non-runtime (no app caller) -> no deploy. 15 onboarding tests pass, mypy --strict clean, check-loc 0.
backend-compliance
Python/FastAPI service implementing the DSGVO compliance API: DSR, DSFA, consent, controls, risks, evidence, audit, vendor management, ISMS, change requests, document generation.
Port: 8002 (container: bp-compliance-backend)
Stack: Python 3.12, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy 2.x, Alembic, Keycloak auth.
Architecture
compliance/
├── api/ # Routers (thin, ≤30 LOC per handler)
├── services/ # Business logic
├── repositories/ # DB access
├── domain/ # Value objects, domain errors
├── schemas/ # Pydantic models, split per domain
└── db/models/ # SQLAlchemy ORM, one module per aggregate
The service follows this layered target structure but not all files are fully refactored yet. Phase 1 backlog is tracked in .claude/rules/loc-exceptions.txt (27 backend-compliance files currently excepted).
See ../AGENTS.python.md for the full convention and ../.claude/rules/architecture.md for the non-negotiable rules.

Public API surface
404+ endpoints across /api/v1/*. Grouped by domain: ai, audit, consent, dsfa, dsr, gdpr, vendor, evidence, change-requests, generation, projects, company-profile, isms. Every path is a contract — see the "Public endpoints" rule in the root CLAUDE.md.
