Run the EU AI Act compliance assessment: given the entity's answers (same decision tree as the interactive checker on euaiactlaw.com), returns the applicable roles, risk classification, full obligation list with legal basis and deadlines, and notes (e.g. Annex I Section B reduced regime, open-source GPAI exception, Art 27(3) NCA notification, distributor obligations under Art 24). Pass answers keyed by step id (E1, E2, S1, R1-R5, HR1-HR6, ...); E1 (roles) is required. Multi-select steps take arrays of option ids; single-choice steps take one option id.
