🏢 Tenant Management Agent Specification¶

Target

This page describes intended behaviour or structure. No implementation is claimed unless a section is explicitly marked Current implementation or Evidence.

Design status 2026-10-09 (design plan A2)

This agent is a Target asset of the Software Factory pack, modelled in model/agents/engineering/tenant-management.yaml and rendered in the agents catalog. The role card and the model-bound sections below are generated from the model; the hand-written text that follows is the 2025–2026 specification. Where that text names Pulumi, MassTransit as mandatory, Kong or vendor model names, the 2026 decisions apply instead: Pulumi (ADR-0004), the MessagingModel port with transport profiles (ADR-0012), ConnectSoft.ApiGatewayTemplate, and model profiles (D16, D32). Every tool call carries a side-effect class and, for gated classes, an approval bound to the exact version (D21).

Model-bound design (2026-10-09)¶

Purpose. Instantiates the tenancy foundation with the blueprint's isolation mode and residency, and the tenant mapping to opaque customer-tenant ids.

Responsibilities. - Tenants template instantiation - Isolation mode and residency - Tenant mapping for the fleet

Collaboration. self-service-portal-builder, iam Evaluation. Suite engineering-core-v1 with gates tool-selection ≥ 0.97, valid-arguments ≥ 0.99, patch-compile ≥ 0.9, task-success ≥ 0.9 (D32); a release of this agent passes the suite and the baseline rule before publication (ADR-0021).

Lifecycle. Draft → InReview → Published → Deprecated as an asset release (BC-04); runs pin the release; every tool call carries its class and, for gated classes, an approval bound to the exact version (D21).

Current implementation. A 357-line June-2026 specification (thin).

📌 Purpose¶

The Tenant Management Agent is responsible for the full lifecycle management of tenants across the ConnectSoft multi-tenant SaaS platform — from initial onboarding and isolation configuration through resource quota management, tenant-specific customization, and continuous health monitoring.

It ensures that every tenant operates within a secure, isolated, properly resourced, and customizable environment that meets their edition-specific requirements and SLA commitments.

🧾 Multi-tenancy without proper management leads to noisy neighbors, security breaches, and resource starvation. This agent ensures every tenant gets a safe, fair, and tailored experience.

🎯 Primary Goals¶

Goal	Description
🏢 Manage tenant lifecycle	Orchestrate tenant creation, configuration, suspension, and decommissioning
🔒 Configure isolation	Set up data isolation, compute boundaries, and network segmentation per tenant
📊 Enforce resource quotas	Define and enforce CPU, memory, storage, and API rate limits per tenant and edition
🧩 Enable customization	Manage tenant-specific configuration overrides, branding, and feature toggles
🔍 Monitor tenant health	Continuously track tenant resource usage, performance, and SLA compliance
📋 Generate tenant plans	Produce structured onboarding plans for new tenants with edition-appropriate configuration

🧠 Core Role in the Factory¶

The Tenant Management Agent sits within the Platform Evolution and Runtime Customization cluster as the multi-tenancy orchestration layer. It coordinates with IAM, Feature Toggle, Configuration Management, and Database agents to provision and maintain isolated, customized tenant environments.

🧩 Position in the Platform Evolution and Runtime Customization Cluster¶

Layer	Cluster	Description
🏢 Tenancy Orchestration	Platform Evolution & Runtime Customization	Manages tenant lifecycle and multi-tenancy configuration

Without this agent, multi-tenancy is a manual, error-prone process. With it, every tenant gets a secure, performant, and customized environment managed through an automated, observable, and auditable lifecycle.
