I/O Mesh use cases — real-world workflow maps

Same governed mesh for every workflow: dept.* products, policy-gated MCP, Build · Steer · Compound. Live heartbeats feed multi-horizon intelligence with private evals — not generic AI or public ROI claims.

Every use case on the same governed mesh: dept.* products, policy-gated MCP, Build · Steer · Compound.

Live heartbeats (tickets, incidents, deploys, pipeline stages, support, metrics) feed one fabric. Agents combine real-time, short-term, and longer context under policy.

Filter or browse maps: connectors, private eval path, multi-horizon framing, outcome signals — not generic copilots or vector dumps.

BI that starts from organizational heartbeats

Modern agent BI is not another dashboard warehouse. Teams need continuous pulses from live work—incidents, tickets, deploys, pipeline stages—joined with short-term rolling context and longer institutional or analytical memory under policy.

Private evals only (no public lift %).

Real-time

Live pulse rates and ordered stream state from operational heartbeats agents subscribe to under MCP policy. Incidents, tickets, deploys, pipeline stages, scoped by tenant and department.

Short-term

Hours to days of stream history and rolling operational context. Lineage agents can cite. Do not invent 1h/24h/7d product windows.

Long-term

Analytical history and institutional patterns under tenancy. RCA themes, seasonality, board-ready narratives. Do not chip a status.

Governed eng/product heartbeats from week one. Start with GitHub. Slack waits. Private evals on launch blockers. After PD+GH spine if they page.

Pain: Engineering and product context lives in GitHub, Slack, and ad-hoc docs — copilots miss blockers.
