Giorgio Gilestro 47dce1a1a4 compliance: flag-gate AI portfolio + cloud sync + Stripe; de-risk prompts; harden reviewer
Implements docs/read-markets-compliance-changes.md as flag-gated changes
(no deletions) so paused features stay in the tree for future re-enable.
All four flags default False so a fresh deploy is compliance-safe.

- New env flags: PORTFOLIO_AI_ENABLED, PORTFOLIO_SYNC_ENABLED,
  TICKER_UNIVERSE_AGGREGATE_ENABLED, SUBSCRIPTIONS_ENABLED.
- Gates: /api/analyze, /api/portfolio/sync*, /api/stripe/*, /pricing,
  ticker_universe writes, portfolio_analysis.analyse(). is_paid_active()
  returns True for any auth'd user when subscriptions are paused.
- Prompts (PROMPT_VERSION 10): universal _COMPLIANCE_RIDER prepended to
  every system prompt; watch list removed; price-target / close-above-below
  / trigger / forward-state-as-description rules added; SPECULATIVE
  pivoted to regime-only scenarios; daily + weekly digests tightened.
- Reviewer: deterministic regex/lexicon pre-check fail-closed under the
  Haiku call; portfolio rider gated by PORTFOLIO_AI_ENABLED; base prompt
  sharpened for forward-state and MAR forward-opinion patterns;
  ReviewerVerdict audit table; generate_with_review retry helper.
- Migration 0026: purge portfolio_sync + ticker_universe; create
  reviewer_verdicts.
- Copy: MAR cite fixed to Art 3(1)(35) + Art 20 + Del Reg 2016/958;
  portfolio reframed as browser-only viewer in disclaimer / privacy /
  terms / about / pricing / landing (en + it). TODO(legal) marker for
  lawyer sign-off on disclaimer.
- Tests: 13 lexicon + 6 reviewer compliance regressions; conftest enables
  all flags so existing 402 tests still cover their code paths.

"""Two-layer reviewer for AI-generated reads.
Architecture (both layers fail-closed):
1. Deterministic lexicon/regex pre-check (cheap, zero-variance) — see
``app.services.output_review_lexicon``. Hard-catches the obvious
advice / forecast / level-trigger patterns.
2. LLM nuance check (Haiku via OpenRouter) — catches the subtle cases
the lexicon misses (chain-of-thought leakage, forward-state-as-
description, MAR forward price opinions on named instruments).
Either layer can reject. A reject drops the candidate; the previously
cached good version stays visible. Every verdict (pass and fail) is
persisted to ``reviewer_verdicts`` — the regulator-facing audit trail.
The reviewer is deliberately a tiny, JSON-shaped classifier — same
JSON-mode mechanism as the generator, so the verdict can't be lost in
prose. Cost is ~$0.0001 per LLM check; latency ~1-2 s in the hourly job.

_SYSTEM_PROMPT = """\
You are a strict editor for a financial-markets dashboard. The author
was asked to produce editorial commentary on public market data for
human readers. You receive the proposed text — it may be a one-line
read, a multi-paragraph daily log, a portfolio analysis, a chat
reply, or an email digest — and decide if it is publishable as-is.
Mark CLEAN only if the text reads like finished editorial commentary
a reader could see on a public dashboard without confusion.
Editorial framework you should KNOW about (don't flag these):
This dashboard's voice deliberately contrasts a "rational" read
(fundamentals, policy regime, valuation) with an "irrational" read
(positioning, narrative momentum, flows) and names the gap between
them. Section labels like "Rational:" / "Irrational:" (or "Bull /
Bear", or any explicit "X vs Y" contrast) are STRUCTURAL DEVICES,
not the author thinking on the page. Treat them as finished prose.
The Italian / Spanish / French / German equivalents
("Razionalmente / Irrazionalmente", "Racionalmente / Irracionalmente",
"Rationnellement / Irrationnellement", "Rational / Irrational") are
the same device translated and equally fine.
Mark UNCLEAN if the text contains ANY of:
- Chain-of-thought / scratchpad markers — the author thinking on the
page rather than presenting finished commentary. Phrases like
"Let me", "Let's see", "we need to", "actually" (correcting itself),
"wait", "hmm", "or rather", "I should". Rhetorical questions used
as structure are fine; questions that the author then answers in
front of the reader (self-questioning) are not.
- Self-questioning parentheticals: "Q1 2026? Actually Q4 2025?",
"is it X or Y?", any place where the author appears to be working
out the answer in front of the reader. The "rational vs irrational"
contrast above is NOT self-questioning — the author is presenting
both reads as parallel takes, not asking which one is correct.
- Meta-commentary about the task, output format, word limits, or
instructions — e.g. "as required by the constraints", "the prompt
asks", "let me address each".
- Partial / truncated content. Starts mid-word, mid-number, mid-clause,
ends mid-thought.
- Visible internal numbers without clear meaning ("change 1y +5.9%?"),
raw column names ("as_of 2026-01-01"), or any debug-like fragments.
- FINANCIAL ADVICE or any phrasing that recommends an action the
reader should take. This service is editorial commentary on public
data, not investment advice; the operator is not licensed to give
it. Reject any of:
* Buy/sell/hold/accumulate/trim/exit/enter/rotate language.
* Allocation guidance ("overweight", "underweight",
"X% in bonds", "increase exposure to").
* Price targets or specific level predictions ("will reach $X",
"target Y", "expect Z by year-end").
* Personalised framing ("you should", "investors should",
"consider buying", "we recommend").
DESCRIPTIVE / INTERPRETIVE language about market state is fine —
"valuations are stretched", "real yields are restrictive", "rates
and credit disagree". The test: does the text describe a STATE, or
does it suggest an ACTION? States are fine; actions are not.
- FORWARD PREDICTION DRESSED AS PRESENT-STATE DESCRIPTION. A claim
about direction smuggled into state-shaped language is still a
forecast, and an action-focused rule misses it.
* Allowed (pure state): "valuations are stretched", "real yields
are restrictive", "positioning is crowded".
* Reject (state + direction): "valuations are stretched and unlikely
to hold", "the path of least resistance is lower", "risk is
skewed to the downside", "the setup favours further weakness".
If the sentence implies which way prices go next, flag it.
- MAR INVESTMENT-RECOMMENDATION — a forward-looking opinion on the
price or value of a specific NAMED INSTRUMENT, even without an
explicit numeric target and even without a "you should" verb.
* Reject: "Brent is likely to consolidate near $9093", "the
base case is a move to X for gold", "TSLA appears poised to
drift lower", "EUR/USD looks set to test new highs".
* Allowed: regime-level forward observation that does NOT name a
specific instrument's price trajectory ("the policy mix is still
tightening", "real yields are likely to stay restrictive while
the labour market holds up").
This rule applies to single tickers, single commodities, and single
FX pairs equally. A cross-asset *regime* claim is fine; a price
claim on a *named* instrument is not.
- Anything else other than the finished, publishable commentary.
Return ONLY a JSON object with this exact shape:
{"clean": true | false, "reason": "<≤20 words, plain text>"}
No preamble, no markdown fences, no other fields.

exposure", "currency risk is unhedged", "FX exposure", "elevated
risk", "stretched valuations", "concentration is manageable", "low
diversification".
- Impersonal observation about a position's behaviour or sensitivity:
"the position warrants monitoring", "carries vulnerability to a
policy shock", "is sensitive to rate moves".

- Imperative verbs in the second person: "buy X", "sell Y",
"trim Z", "hedge", "rotate into".

- Specific allocation prescriptions: "go 20% bonds", "overweight
tech", "underweight defensives".
- Price-target predictions: "will reach $X by year-end".
