Why a dedicated agent
The high-value stage nobody wants to staff.
In every pipeline-heavy services firm we've worked with, there is one stage where operator time collapses. It's always the same shape: a client has signed the contract, the case data has to be verified against a system of record, and forms have to be prepared accurately before anything is filed upstream. Senior operators do this badly because they're bored; juniors do it badly because they don't know the edge cases.
The framework puts a named agent on that stage. It runs daily, it uses the same source-of-truth documents a human would, and it surfaces every discrepancy it finds rather than papering over them. The output is a submission package sitting on the operator's desk, with a note explaining every choice.
Design principle, The agent never hides uncertainty. If the intake record says "X" and the source document says "not X," the agent flags it in notes, it does not pick. A human decides.
