Reconciliation across two systems that disagree

A bounded agent that fixes what it is permitted to fix and escalates the rest with a recommendation.

The problem

Two systems hold the same records and drift apart. Somebody compares them daily, corrects the mechanical differences, and escalates the ones that need judgement. Most of it is mechanical.

Approach

How we would approach it

01

Define the tolerance: what difference is correctable, and what must go to a person

02

Give the agent read access to both systems and write access to one, scoped per operation

03

Verify every proposed correction against business rules before it commits

04

Stage or make reversible every write, with an idempotency key

05

Escalate outside tolerance with the evidence and a recommendation attached

Measures

What we would measure

Agreed at the start, reported against honestly. If a measure is not worth arguing about now, it is not worth reporting later.

  • Share resolved inside tolerance
  • Escalations accepted without change
  • Reversals, and the reason for each
  • Cost per completed run

Capabilities involved

What usually goes wrong

If the process is stable and rule-based, this does not need an agent. Ordinary automation is cheaper, faster and easier to audit.
