Process overview

The workflow follows internationally recognised documentation practices: capture context, execute heuristic dialogues, then deliver evidenced outcomes. Each stage below logs its status to assist with operational reviews.

Capture structured context

Operators introduce topology, regulatory, and performance constraints. Metadata feeds the Granite prompt so every recommendation references the precise IBM MQ environment under review.

Reason with Granite heuristics

Granite 8b Instruct receives the heuristic checklist, validates supplied evidence, and highlights any missing artefacts. This stage emits verbose diagnostics for compliance teams.

Deliver auditable outcomes

The assistant assembles actionable guidance covering sizing, architecture, and operational safeguards. Each response includes explicit assumptions so teams can trace decision history.

What the diagram represents

The architecture illustration highlights Granite coordinating dialogue between human operators and IBM MQ subsystems. Labels, connection arcs, and data flows correspond to the live telemetry fields surfaced in the cockpit.

Human-to-Granite dialogue

The left-hand panels symbolise domain specialists sharing architecture intent, capacity plans, and governance controls. Granite expands these narratives into structured checkpoints before continuing the conversation.

Machine validation loop

Illustrated channels and particle trails show Granite echoing recommendations back through IBM MQ telemetry. Every loop must satisfy the published heuristics—mirroring ISO/IEC 30170 guidance on auditable automation.
