Case setup — Design an AI-assisted configuration system

A B2B workflow platform lets enterprise administrators configure approval rules, permissions, and integrations. These configurations execute in production. One mistake could bypass payment approval or block every valid order.

The product request is:

“Let an administrator describe an intent in natural language, then have AI generate the configuration.”

That is not enough to design a system. Is the output a suggestion or a final configuration? Who may publish it? When does it take effect? How is an error detected? Can existing workflows continue when the model is unavailable?

Use the same CSDEC method

The final artifact is an AI-assisted Configuration System Design Brief for architecture review, not an AI product proposal.
