We've been bitten by this a few times — real email addresses ending up in CSV test fixtures that got committed to repos. Curious how data engineering teams actually handle this in practice. Do you gate on it in CI? Manual review? Just trust the process? We built a small local CLI scanner for this — deterministic pattern matching, no network calls, exits non-zero on HIGH risk findings so you can block PRs. Happy to share if useful but mostly curious what others are doing.

How do you prevent PII from leaking into test fixtures and staging datasets?

Premature send - Also is there any logging or validation around why agentic decisions are being made?

This is a super interesting platform play. Question do you guys use synthetic data or how do you protect pii?
