Context runtime

Use business meaning during execution, not only in a diagram.

Ask in the architecture design

Architecture example · Ask in the architecture design
  1. Question
  2. Relevant business concepts
  3. Follow ontology relationships
  4. Retrieve source data
  5. Apply relevant rules
  6. Answer
  7. Attach evidence

Run in the architecture design

A saved instruction identifies relevant context. When relevant information changes, the runtime evaluates that context and surfaces the resulting findings. Ask and Run share the ontology; their trigger and execution timing differ.

Why the runtime matters

For “Which customer orders are affected by Supplier A?”, the intended runtime follows Supplier → Material → Product → Order → Customer. The ontology defines meaningful relationships; source connections provide facts; evidence grounds the result.

What executes now

The current runtime performs keyword excerpt search or supported invoice comparisons against saved snapshots. Ask executes on demand. A Run executes on creation and when a source is connected. General ontology traversal, LLM reasoning and exception-only filtering are not implemented.
