现有合规检测器大多‘规则盲视’，无法真正理解法规内容。

Regulatory compliance monitoring in deployed language models is increasingly implemented as a legal and audit control, checking model outputs against written rules spanning data protection, healthcare, financial regulation, and platform policy. Such monitoring is meaningful only if a detector's verdict depends on the stated rule rather than on surface features of the scenario. We show this condition fails across the current class of compliance detectors, a failure we call rule blindness. Deleting, permuting, or substituting the governing rule leaves detection accuracy unchanged for every guard and activation probe we test, including a policy-conditioned guard that correctly cites the governing clause yet barely changes its verdict when that clause is swapped for its permissive counterpart. A purpose-built benchmark crossing two rules with two scenarios, so that neither alone predicts the label, confirms the failure under a design no prior benchmark rules out, and shows that step by step reasoning, not any fast detector we test, is what escapes it. Auditing at scale requires a retraining-free detector, so we introduce the Internal Compliance Score (ICS): a training-free activation readout calibrated from ten labelled pairs and scored by a single projection. We hold ICS to the same scrutiny as the guards it audits: a pre-registered criterion for beating trivial baselines is not met, and a bag-of-words model matches its pooled generalisation exactly. It remains useful because it is inexpensive, letting us audit four deployed guard models, an 8B zero-shot judge, and thirteen benchmarks, and it raises the mechanically verified pass rate when used to rank candidate responses, though an adaptive white-box attack removes this gain. We release the counterfactual protocol and crossed-rule benchmark so rule blindness can be tested in future probe and guard claims.
