Config Service — AI Integration
Status: populated Owner: TBD Last updated: 2026-04-18 Companion: Service Template · 03 platform-services
1. AI Integration Status
No direct AI calls are made by the config-service.
2. Rationale
| Factor | Detail |
|---|---|
| Service nature | Pure infrastructure/platform service — configuration resolution, role graph expansion, cache management |
| No generative output | All resolution outputs are deterministic (permission allow/deny, token values, UI visibility booleans) |
| Security posture | AI-assisted config mutation would introduce non-determinism into a security-critical pipeline; any suggestion must be validated by a human admin before being persisted |
| Latency constraints | The resolution pipeline must complete in < 500 ms p95; AI inference latency is incompatible with this SLO |
3. Future AI Assist (Out of Scope for v1)
The following AI-assisted capabilities are identified as potential future work but are explicitly out of scope for the initial release:
| Capability | Notes |
|---|---|
| Role design suggestions | Admin UI could suggest role structures based on existing patterns; AI output would be advisory only — admin must review and approve before any CreateRoleDefinitionCommand is issued |
| Feature flag impact analysis | AI-assisted summary of which users/nodes would be affected by toggling a feature flag |
| Anomalous override detection | Flag unusual ExplicitAllow patterns (e.g. override granted near expiry, broad node scope) for human review |
Any future AI integration in this service MUST route through ai-gateway-service per platform standard. No direct vendor SDK calls. All AI output is advisory until explicitly confirmed via HITL workflow.
