EU AI Act Scanner

Scan your codebase for AI framework usage and check EU AI Act + GDPR compliance in seconds.

Zero dependencies. Works offline. Detects 26 AI frameworks including OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, HuggingFace, and more.

Quick Start

pip install eu-ai-act-scanner
eu-ai-act-scanner scan ./my-project

Or with npx (no install):

npx eu-ai-act-scanner scan ./my-project

What It Does

1. Scans your project for AI framework usage (imports, dependencies, model references)
2. Maps each framework to its EU AI Act risk level and obligations
3. Checks your compliance documentation against requirements
4. Reports what's missing with actionable fix instructions

Example Output

EU AI Act Scanner v0.1.0
Scan your project for AI framework usage and EU AI Act / GDPR compliance

Scanning: ./my-ai-app

Scan Results
  Files scanned: 47
  AI files found: 3

  Detected Frameworks:
    openai (2 files)
    langchain (1 file)

  Risk Assessment:
    [HIGH] openai: Art. 51-53 (GPAI obligations)
           Document OpenAI model usage, register as GPAI deployer...
    [MEDIUM] langchain: Art. 50 (transparency), Art. 6 + Annex III
           Audit your LangChain pipeline for chained AI models...

  Compliance: 1/3 (33.3%) for limited-risk

    PASS transparency
    FAIL user_disclosure
         Clearly inform users that AI is involved in the system
         Art. 52(1) - Natural persons must be notified of AI interaction
           - Add an 'AI Disclosure' section to your README.md
           - Include: which AI models are used, what they do, what data they process
    FAIL content_marking
         Mark AI-generated content so users can distinguish it from human content
         Art. 52(3) - AI-generated text/image/audio/video must be labeled
           - Add metadata or visible label to AI-generated outputs

Supported Frameworks (26)

Usage

Basic Scan

# Scan current directory
eu-ai-act-scanner scan

# Scan a specific project
eu-ai-act-scanner scan ./path/to/project

# Scan with explicit risk category
eu-ai-act-scanner scan ./project --risk high

GDPR Scan

# Include GDPR compliance check
eu-ai-act-scanner scan ./project --gdpr

JSON Output

# Full report as JSON (for CI/CD integration)
eu-ai-act-scanner scan ./project --json

Python API

from eu_ai_act_scanner import EUAIActScanner, GDPRScanner

# EU AI Act scan
scanner = EUAIActScanner("./my-project")
results = scanner.scan()
print(f"Found: {list(results['detected_models'].keys())}")

# Compliance check
compliance = scanner.check_compliance("limited")
print(f"Score: {compliance['compliance_score']}")

# GDPR scan
gdpr = GDPRScanner("./my-project")
gdpr_results = gdpr.scan()
print(f"Personal data: {gdpr_results['processing_summary']['processes_personal_data']}")

CI/CD Integration

Add to your GitHub Actions workflow:

- name: EU AI Act Compliance Check
  run: |
    pip install eu-ai-act-scanner
    eu-ai-act-scanner scan . --json > compliance-report.json

How Risk Levels Work

The EU AI Act classifies AI systems into 4 risk categories:

• Unacceptable: Banned (social scoring, mass biometric surveillance)
• High: Strict requirements (recruitment, credit scoring, medical devices)
• Limited: Transparency obligations (chatbots, content generation)
• Minimal: No specific obligations (spam filters, games)

This scanner detects which frameworks you use and maps them to their default risk level. Your actual risk category depends on your specific use case — the scanner suggests a starting point.

MCP Server

This scanner is also available as an MCP server for AI coding assistants (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.). Run compliance scans directly from your IDE.

Troubleshooting

CLI not found after pip install

If eu-ai-act-scanner is not found after install, your Python user scripts directory may not be on PATH:

# Add to your shell profile (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc)
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

Or run directly with Python:

python -m eu_ai_act_scanner scan ./my-project
