Avira,
“There definitely are gemaros about tznius details – Brachos 24a, kesuvos 72b, many other places.”

Definitely, but when in high school, hearing about tznius, I wanted to look up the Halachic sources for this important topic. I innocently opened up a kitzur shulchan aruch to hilchos tznius but didn’t find what I was looking for.

“The details of lashon hora are far lesa discussed, which precipitated the need for the chofetz chaim to delineate them”

There is no hilchos tznius anywhere in the classic sefarim. There are clear lavin against prohibited speech with sections in mishne Torah on it, and probably later classical sefarim too (before the times of the chofetz chaim).
