Original: I Turned Federal Compliance Regulations Into JSON So My AI Coding Agent Could Actually Use Them

Short summary

A Python pipeline converts NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC Level 1 regulatory text into 125 machine-actionable JSON rules with agent_guidance fields designed for AI coding agent system prompts. The author details challenges with NIST's inconsistent API schema and CVSS severity nesting bugs. Rules can be used as agent guardrails, CI/CD compliance gates, or GRC platform imports. The complete dataset is sold under a one-time license.

  • •Pipeline generates 125 JSON compliance rules from NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC Level 1
  • •Each rule includes agent_guidance text for direct injection into AI coding agent prompts
  • •Usable as CI/CD gates, agent guardrails, or GRC platform imports via stable control_id keys

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
