What you build
Using a specification-driven approach, Bob converts a Business Requirements Definition (BRD) into a working watsonx Orchestrate incident triage solution. The solution includes:- 5 AI agents:
incident_triage_coordinator,first_responder,runbook_specialist,remediation_engineer, andsummary_specialist - 1 agent workflow:
incident_triage_orchestrationmanages the full incident lifecycle - 2 Python tools:
create_support_ticketandexecute_remediation_action - 1 knowledge base:
incident_runbookswith runbooks for common incident types
Prerequisites
- IBM Bob installed: Sign up for access
- A watsonx Orchestrate account: Sign up for a trial
- watsonx Orchestrate Developer Edition (ADK 2.15+): See the installation guide
High-level steps
How it works
A user submits a free-text incident request to theincident_triage_coordinator. The coordinator starts the incident_triage_orchestration workflow, which routes the request through four specialist agents in sequence: classification and ticket creation (first_responder), runbook lookup (runbook_specialist), remediation execution (remediation_engineer), and resolution summary (summary_specialist). For existing ticket requests, the coordinator uses natural language reasoning to call stand-alone tools directly, bypassing the workflow.
