Summary

• Add a self-contained IP management compliance guard for the Scientific Bounty System.
• Validate incoming bounty submissions to ensure strict intellectual property and licensing prerequisites.
• Generate deterministic reviewer artifacts in JSON, Markdown, SVG, GIF, and MP4 demo formats.

Distinct scope

This specifically enforces Intellectual Property rights and licensing gate logic. It is completely distinct from existing escrow readiness slices, export-control slices, scoring mechanisms, accessibility validators, or training policies.

Validation

• npm test
• node scripts/demo.js
• ffmpeg -f lavfi ...
• git diff --check

Demo video

• ip-management-compliance-guard/reports/ip-management-demo.mp4
• ip-management-compliance-guard/reports/demo.gif

Safety

Synthetic data only. No live API credentials, real IP/patents, actual bounty escrow logic, or network calls are made. Fully dependency-free module.
