πŸ“˜ Blueprints in the AI Software Factory

🧩 Overview of Blueprints

🧩 What Is a Blueprint?

In the ConnectSoft AI Software Factory, a blueprint is a structured, declarative plan that guides intelligent agents in generating, validating, and delivering autonomous software components. It is more than configuration β€” it is an execution contract between planning agents and generation agents.


πŸ” Why Blueprints Matter

Most code generation tools stop at producing a file. In contrast, the AI Software Factory uses blueprints to:

  • Orchestrate modular service generation across microservices, infrastructure, tests, and UI.
  • Ensure traceability of every action with metadata like traceId, blueprintId, agentId.
  • Link agent decisions to outcomes, enabling retries, auditing, and debugging.
  • Structure multi-agent collaboration by defining shared inputs and validated outputs.

🧠 Key Properties of a Blueprint

Property Description
Declarative Describes intent and structure, not implementation
AI-Readable Used by semantic agents and planners as structured input
Composable Can embed or reference DSLs (Domain-Specific Language fragments)
Traceable Every blueprint is tied to execution metadata (e.g., traceId, version)
Versioned Stored as versioned files in memory and Git-compatible formats
Reusable Indexed and semantically linked across services and tenants

πŸ” How Blueprints Fit Into the Factory Flow

This diagram represents the flow from idea to execution. Each blueprint refines the previous one and adds structure until artifacts are fully generated.


πŸŽ›οΈ Blueprint vs DSL vs Artifact

Layer Role Example
DSL Atomic building block AppointmentBookedEvent, UserEntity
Blueprint Composite plan for generation booking-service-blueprint.yaml
Artifact Output from agent execution .cs, .bicep, .feature, .md

πŸ”— Blueprints compose DSLs and produce artifacts.


πŸ—‚οΈ Format and Structure

Blueprints are typically stored as structured YAML files with consistent fields:

blueprintId: booking-service-v1
type: Service
traceId: 2b3471f9
version: 1.0.0
dsl:
  - ref: dsls/entities/Appointment.yaml
  - ref: dsls/events/AppointmentBooked.yaml
outputs:
  - service: BookingService
    handlers:
      - BookAppointmentCommand

🧭 Who Produces Blueprints?

Blueprints are emitted or consumed by agents during generation orchestration:

Agent Type Blueprint Roles
Vision Architect Agent Produces VisionBlueprint
Product Manager Agent Produces ServiceBlueprint
DevOps Agent Produces PipelineBlueprint
QA Agent Consumes ServiceBlueprint and produces TestBlueprint

Each blueprint is traceable to its originating agent and skill.


βœ… Summary

  • Blueprints are central knowledge artifacts in the AI Software Factory.
  • They serve as structured contracts between idea and implementation.
  • DSLs are reusable fragments used inside or referenced by blueprints.
  • Blueprints drive the generation of real artifacts through orchestrated agents.

🧩 DSL vs Blueprint vs Artifact

In the AI Software Factory, it's essential to clearly distinguish between:

  • DSLs (Domain-Specific Languages): fine-grained declarative building blocks
  • Blueprints: structured, traceable plans that orchestrate generation
  • Artifacts: tangible outputs like code files, diagrams, tests, and pipelines

πŸ”£ 1. What Is a DSL?

A DSL is a small, focused language designed to represent a narrow concept in a reusable, composable way.

Characteristic Description
Atomic Represents a single concern (e.g., Entity, Event, Scope)
Reusable Can be referenced across multiple blueprints
Validatable Has a schema, supports linting and safety checks
Versioned Stored as *.yaml or *.dsl.yaml, often in dsls/ folder

🧾 Example: EventDSL

type: Event
name: AppointmentBooked
source: BookingService
payload:
  - field: appointmentId
    type: Guid
  - field: time
    type: DateTime

🧩 2. What Is a Blueprint?

A blueprint is a composite, structured contract that defines how agents will generate or validate part of the system. Blueprints typically:

  • Reference or embed multiple DSLs
  • Define orchestration metadata (blueprintId, traceId)
  • Serve as inputs/outputs for agent workflows
  • Govern generation behavior, not just description

🧾 Example: Blueprint referencing DSLs

blueprintId: booking-service
type: Service
version: 1.0.0
agent: ProductManager
traceId: abc-123

dsl:
  - ref: dsls/entities/Appointment.yaml
  - ref: dsls/events/AppointmentBooked.yaml

outputs:
  - project: BookingService
    handlers:
      - name: BookAppointmentHandler

πŸ› οΈ 3. What Is an Artifact?

An artifact is the final output emitted by a code-generation agent or orchestration pipeline. It can be:

Artifact Type Format Examples
Code .cs, .ts, .py BookAppointmentHandler.cs
Test .feature, .spec.ts appointment-booking.feature
Infrastructure .bicep, .tf, .yaml queue-provisioning.bicep
Documentation .md, .svg, .png HowItWorks.md, architecture.svg
Configuration .json, .env, .yaml pipeline.config.yaml

These artifacts are always traceable back to the blueprint and DSLs used to generate them.


πŸ“Š 4. DSL vs Blueprint vs Artifact: Side-by-Side Table

Category DSL Blueprint Artifact
Role Declarative fragment Structured generation contract Tangible result
Format *.dsl.yaml or inline YAML *.blueprint.yaml .cs, .bicep, .md, etc.
Ownership Domain architects, platform agents Orchestration and planning agents Generation agents
Versioning Independent, reusable Project/module scoped Git-based or published pipeline
Stored In DSL registry (Git/blob/memory) Blueprint registry (Git/blob/memory) Artifact repo or output storage
Used By Multiple blueprints Consumed by agents during execution Used by DevOps, runtime systems
Example UserEntity, AppointmentEvent booking-service-blueprint.yaml BookingService.cs, bicep.yaml

🧭 5. Blueprint as an Execution Contract

Agents treat a blueprint as a contract between planning and execution:

  • Input to the generation pipeline
  • Output of Vision, Product, Architect agents
  • Consumed by Engineering, QA, DevOps agents

βœ… Summary

  • DSLs are reusable fragments defining atomic elements like entities or events.
  • Blueprints are structured plans that compose DSLs and control agent generation.
  • Artifacts are the end products generated from a blueprint via agent orchestration.

Blueprints are the intelligent bridge between structured domain knowledge and working, observable software.


🧩 Blueprint Lifecycle Overview

The blueprint lifecycle defines how blueprints are created, validated, versioned, used by agents, and evolved over time in the AI Software Factory. Each blueprint is not just a static file β€” it's a living, traceable, versioned object at the heart of generation orchestration.


πŸ”„ 1. Blueprint Lifecycle Phases

Phase Description
Created Initial generation from Vision, Product, or Architect agents
Validated Checked against schemas, DSLs, references, and required fields
Indexed Embedded semantically and stored in memory/registry for reuse
Consumed Used by downstream generation agents (e.g., Engineering, QA, DevOps)
Versioned Tagged, updated, and optionally frozen for reproducibility
Regenerated Modified in response to feedback, failed validation, or scope changes
Archived Older versions retained for traceability or replay

πŸ”§ 2. Lifecycle Events

Blueprints emit system events at key stages:

Event Type Emitted By Purpose
BlueprintCreated Vision/Product Agent A new blueprint has been generated
BlueprintValidated Validator Agent/Skill All structural and reference checks passed
BlueprintUsed Generation Agent A blueprint has triggered artifact generation
BlueprintVersioned Orchestrator/DevOps A blueprint version is tagged and locked
BlueprintInvalid Validator Agent/Skill A validation failure occurred
BlueprintUpdated Feedback Loop Agent A newer revision was produced
BlueprintArchived Blueprint Lifecycle Agent Blueprint no longer active but retained for trace

Each event carries full trace metadata: traceId, blueprintId, agentId, runId, timestamp.


πŸ“¦ 3. Storage and Representation

Blueprints are persisted in the following places:

Layer Storage Format Purpose
Git Repo *.blueprint.yaml Auditable, version-controlled
Blob Storage Structured YAML/JSON Large-scale raw storage
Vector DB Embedded text/vector Semantic search and similarity
Execution Memory Indexed object metadata Runtime state and cross-agent access

πŸ” All blueprints are traceable to their originating prompt, agent, and artifacts.

    G --> I
Hold "Alt" / "Option" to enable pan & zoom

🧠 5. Regeneration Scenarios

Blueprints may be automatically or manually updated when:

  • ❌ Validation fails (e.g., missing DSL, invalid DSL version)
  • πŸ” Scope expands (e.g., new feature added)
  • πŸ§ͺ Tests fail and require new flows
  • πŸ”Ž Feedback loop suggests improved DSL coverage or structure

Agents like the Feedback Handler, Regression Tracker, or Blueprint Refiner are responsible for initiating these updates.


🧭 6. Agent Roles in the Lifecycle

Agent Lifecycle Action
Vision Architect Agent Emits initial VisionBlueprint
Product Manager Agent Emits and links ServiceBlueprint
Validator Agent Performs validation, emits events
DevOps Agent Tags, versions, and stores blueprint
QA Agent Consumes TestBlueprint
Documentation Agent Uses blueprint metadata for docs
Feedback Loop Agent Regenerates or evolves blueprint

All steps are coordinated through the Event Mesh, ensuring decoupled yet traceable interactions.


βœ… Summary

  • Every blueprint follows a structured lifecycle β€” from creation to consumption and evolution.
  • Lifecycle events are emitted at every step for observability and traceability.
  • Multiple agents participate in the lifecycle, both as producers and consumers.
  • Regeneration and versioning are core to enabling adaptive, iterative generation.

🧩 Traceability and Metadata

Blueprints are not just generation plans β€” they are traceable, semantically indexed, and observable objects that encode provenance, purpose, and usage context throughout the AI Software Factory.


πŸ›°οΈ 1. Why Traceability Matters

Every blueprint must answer:

  • 🧠 Who generated it? (Agent identity, skill name)
  • 🧭 Why was it generated? (Prompt, feature, requirement)
  • πŸ“Ž Where is it used? (Linked microservices, pipelines, test cases)
  • πŸ” What version? (Hash, timestamp, tags)
  • 🧾 What artifacts resulted from it?

This traceability ensures:

Benefit Outcome
Debuggability Trace bugs back to blueprint origin
Compliance & Auditing Show why a change was made, by whom, and from what spec
Regeneration triggers Change in DSL/requirement auto-updates blueprints
Semantic reuse Discover similar blueprints via vector search

🧬 2. Core Metadata Fields

Every blueprint includes standard metadata fields in its header:

blueprintId: booking-service-v1
type: Service
agent: ProductManager
skill: GenerateServiceBlueprint
traceId: 9fae23ab-28a9-4cf2-a4ed-a839fa8e4cb1
runId: 20240601-BookingFlow
version: 1.2.0
status: Validated
createdAt: 2024-06-01T13:42:00Z
updatedAt: 2024-06-01T14:17:22Z
Field Purpose
blueprintId Unique identifier for this blueprint instance
type Category: Vision, Service, Test, etc.
agent Name of the emitting agent persona
skill The specific skill/prompt/function that generated it
traceId Trace context for tracking across all downstream actions
runId Factory execution ID (batch or orchestrated run)
version SemVer-compatible version
status Enum: Draft, Validated, Used, Invalid, Archived
createdAt UTC timestamp of creation
updatedAt UTC timestamp of last modification

πŸ” 3. DSL and Artifact References

Blueprints maintain direct references to both inputs and outputs:

dsl:
  - ref: dsls/entities/Appointment.yaml
  - ref: dsls/events/AppointmentBooked.yaml

artifacts:
  - ref: artifacts/services/BookingService.cs
  - ref: artifacts/bicep/booking-queue.bicep
  - ref: artifacts/tests/booking.feature

These references support:

  • πŸ”„ Artifact regeneration on DSL change
  • 🧭 Full Prompt β†’ DSL β†’ Blueprint β†’ Artifact lineage
  • πŸ”Ž Smart diffing and version navigation

🧠 4. Semantic Embedding and Memory Indexing

Every blueprint is embedded into the factory’s vector-based memory graph:

Memory Layer What’s Stored Purpose
Short-Term Memory Contextual use during current run Prompt-to-agent-to-output linkage
Long-Term Memory Embedded semantic vectors Similarity, reuse, memory recall
Persistent Memory Versioned YAML and metadata Audit, rollback, archiving

Blueprint trace IDs are also linked to events, logs, prompts, test results, and documentation.

    B --> A3
Hold "Alt" / "Option" to enable pan & zoom

🧷 6. Events and Trace Hooks

Blueprints inject trace data into the observability layer via:

  • traceId propagation into:
    • Logs (LogContext.TraceId)
    • Events (EventGrid.Metadata)
    • Test spans (OpenTelemetry.SpanId)
  • Event mesh metadata headers:
    • X-Blueprint-Id
    • X-Agent-Name
    • X-DSL-Hash

This allows for full-stack traceability across platform telemetry.


βœ… Summary

  • Every blueprint is tagged, versioned, and traceable across the factory.
  • DSLs and artifacts are explicitly linked for auditing and regeneration.
  • Trace IDs connect blueprints to events, logs, test runs, and final outputs.
  • Semantic memory enables intelligent reuse and similarity-based navigation.

🧩 Blueprint Memory Indexing and Retrieval

Every blueprint generated within the AI Software Factory is embedded and indexed in multiple memory layers β€” enabling retrieval, reuse, regeneration, and similarity-based orchestration.

This memory system ensures that blueprints aren't lost or static β€” they are continuously discoverable, learnable, and updatable based on historical traces.


🧠 1. Multi-Layer Memory Model

Blueprints are indexed in three coordinated memory layers:

Memory Layer Scope Storage Purpose
Short-Term Current agent run In-context memory Used to resolve prompts & generate output
Long-Term Cross-agent semantic graph Vector DB (e.g., Azure Cognitive Search, Redis, Qdrant) Recall similar blueprints or DSLs
Persistent Immutable file/archive Blob storage + Git-compatible YAML Versioned audit log, replay, governance

πŸ”Ž 2. Semantic Embedding of Blueprints

Each blueprint is semantically embedded into vector memory using a transformer model (e.g., text-embedding-3-large or openai/azure-embedding) with fields like:

  • title, purpose, dsl.refs, outputs.project, agent, traceId, and artifact paths

These embeddings power:

  • πŸ” Reuse detection ("Find similar service blueprint")
  • 🧬 Merge suggestions ("Combine two booking flows")
  • πŸ” Memory-driven prompting ("You already built a similar test for 'UserRegistered'")

🧭 3. Blueprint Retrieval Interfaces

Interface Type Purpose Used By
MemorySkill.SearchBlueprints(query) Semantic similarity query Planner, Vision, Refiner Agents
BlueprintMemory.GetById(blueprintId) Exact blueprint fetch Generator and DevOps Agents
MemorySkill.ListByTag(tag: Booking) Return all tagged blueprints Studio UI, AutoDocs Agent
BlueprintHistory.FindByTrace(traceId) Find all versions linked to a trace run Validator, QA Agent

πŸ“˜ 4. Example: Vectorized Blueprint

{
  "blueprintId": "booking-service-v1",
  "type": "Service",
  "agent": "ProductManager",
  "dsl.refs": [
    "dsls/entities/Appointment.yaml",
    "dsls/events/AppointmentBooked.yaml"
  ],
  "embedding": [0.013, -0.144, 0.251, ...]
}

This record is stored in a vector index alongside other structured fields.


πŸ•ΈοΈ 5. Blueprint Memory Graph

Each blueprint is also linked into a traceable memory graph for reasoning and planning:

graph TD
    Prompt["🧠 Prompt: Add Booking Flow"]
    VisionBP["🧩 Vision Blueprint"]
    ServiceBP["🧩 Service Blueprint"]
    TestBP["🧩 Test Blueprint"]
    Artifact1["πŸ“„ booking.feature"]
    Artifact2["πŸ› οΈ BookAppointmentHandler.cs"]

    Prompt --> VisionBP --> ServiceBP --> TestBP
    TestBP --> Artifact1
    ServiceBP --> Artifact2
Hold "Alt" / "Option" to enable pan & zoom

This enables contextual reasoning for agents like:

  • πŸ§ͺ "Did we test all flows from the booking blueprint?"
  • πŸ”„ "Which blueprints were affected when Appointment DSL changed?"
  • 🧠 "Have we built something like this before?"

πŸ” 6. Memory-Driven Blueprint Reuse

Agents can auto-suggest or copy patterns from similar blueprints:

β€œYou’ve already built a blueprint for PrescriptionService. Do you want to reuse its event structure for ReminderService?”

This mechanism makes the factory progressively smarter over time.


βœ… Summary

  • Blueprints are indexed in multi-layer memory for intelligent retrieval and orchestration.
  • Semantic vectors enable fuzzy matching, reuse, and similarity detection.
  • The memory system is fully trace-linked, powering traceability and observability.
  • Retrieval is available via agents, orchestration flows, and Studio UI.

🧩 Agents That Use and Produce Blueprints

In the AI Software Factory, blueprints are the core shared language between intelligent agents. They are:

  • πŸ› οΈ Produced by upstream planning agents (vision, product, architecture)
  • πŸ“₯ Consumed by downstream generation agents (engineering, QA, DevOps, documentation)
  • πŸ” Refined by agents in the feedback loop (test, runtime, observability)

🧠 1. Blueprint as the Core Artifact Exchange Format

Instead of relying on plain prompts or raw YAML snippets, ConnectSoft agents collaborate through structured, versioned blueprints.

Blueprints encapsulate:

  • DSL references (semantic)
  • Purpose and traceability
  • Input/output expectations
  • Agent/system context
  • Memory hooks and trace metadata

πŸ€– 2. Which Agents Produce Blueprints?

Agent Type Blueprint Types Produced
Vision Architect Agent VisionBlueprint (modules, personas, flows)
Product Manager Agent ServiceBlueprint, EntityBlueprint
Enterprise Architect InfrastructureBlueprint, SecurityBlueprint
QA Engineer Agent TestBlueprint (BDD, test matrix)
DevOps Agent PipelineBlueprint, DeploymentBlueprint
Documentation Agent DocumentationBlueprint from services/modules

These agents emit BlueprintCreated events and store generated YAML files into memory, blob, or Git.


πŸ” 3. Which Agents Consume Blueprints?

Agent Type Blueprint Types Consumed
Software Engineer Agent ServiceBlueprint, ModuleBlueprint
Test Automation Agent TestBlueprint, ServiceBlueprint
Load & Performance Agent TestBlueprint, InfraBlueprint
Resiliency & Chaos Agent SecurityBlueprint, PipelineBlueprint
Feedback Loop Agent All types (to refine or regenerate)
Code Reviewer Agent Service blueprints to validate design vs code

These consumers often emit:

  • BlueprintUsed
  • BlueprintValidated
  • BlueprintUpdated

πŸ”„ 4. Agent-to-Agent Blueprint Flow

πŸ”‚ 5. Multi-Agent Blueprint Collaboration Patterns

Pattern Description
Fan-out One blueprint feeds multiple agents (ServiceBlueprint β†’ Engineer + QA)
Cascade Each blueprint evolves into the next (Vision β†’ Service β†’ Infra)
Feedback Loop Agents suggest improvements or corrections (TestAgent β†’ ProductManager)
Branch per Edition Blueprints are forked and scoped to tenant or edition variants

🧬 6. Agent-Blueprint Registry

All agent/blueprint interactions are logged to a registry for:

  • πŸ” Studio inspection
  • πŸ“Š Observability dashboards
  • πŸ” Feedback loops and auto-repair
  • 🧠 Meta-learning of agent effectiveness

Example registry row:

{
  "agent": "ProductManager",
  "blueprintId": "booking-service-v2",
  "producedAt": "2024-06-01T14:42:00Z",
  "traceId": "abc-123",
  "status": "Validated"
}

βœ… Summary

  • Agents interact with each other through structured blueprints, not raw text.
  • Every blueprint has a producing and consuming agent, creating a traceable chain.
  • Blueprint creation, usage, and validation are observable and version-controlled.
  • Collaboration flows are event-driven, decoupled, and semantically rich.

🧩 Vision Blueprint

The Vision Blueprint is the foundational planning artifact produced by the Vision Architect Agent. It captures the high-level structure, purpose, and modular breakdown of the product or system to be generated.

This blueprint seeds the downstream generation of all other blueprints β€” service, test, infra, etc.


🧠 1. Purpose

The Vision Blueprint defines:

  • 🧭 Product goals, business flows, and personas
  • 🧩 System modularization into domains, services, and capabilities
  • 🧡 Key event flows and integration boundaries
  • 🧠 Semantic signals for AI agents (naming, scope, responsibility hints)

It answers the question:

β€œWhat should we build, for whom, and how should it be structured?”


🧬 2. Example Structure

πŸ” 6. Evolution and Refinement

The Vision Blueprint may be refined when:

  • πŸ’¬ Requirements change
  • ✨ New modules are added
  • πŸ” QA discovers missing scenarios
  • 🧠 Similar blueprints are detected and merged

The updated blueprint emits BlueprintUpdated events, and downstream agents are re-triggered with new versioned inputs.


βœ… Summary

  • The Vision Blueprint defines the high-level intent and modular scope of the product.
  • It contains personas, modules, and event flows that seed downstream generation.
  • It’s produced by the Vision Architect Agent and consumed by multiple downstream agents.
  • It supports embedding or referencing DSLs for persona, module, and event design.

🧩 Service Blueprint

The Service Blueprint defines the structure, responsibilities, and interaction surfaces of a specific microservice or backend module. It is produced by the Product Manager Agent, based on the upstream Vision Blueprint and DSL references.

This blueprint drives the generation of handler classes, commands, events, REST/gRPC APIs, contracts, and configuration layers.


🧠 1. Purpose

The Service Blueprint answers:

  • πŸ› οΈ What is this service responsible for?
  • πŸ“¬ What commands and events does it handle?
  • πŸ“‘ What APIs does it expose?
  • 🧱 What entities does it manage internally?

It guides the creation of production-grade, modular, agent-compatible services.


🧬 2. Example Structure

πŸ”Ž 3. DSLs Referenced

DSL Type Description
EntityDSL Defines aggregates like Appointment
CommandDSL Incoming actions (e.g., BookAppointment)
EventDSL Outgoing domain events
ApiDSL REST or gRPC interface definition

These DSLs allow the blueprint to remain lightweight while reusing validated domain logic.


🧠 4. Agent Usage

Agent Action
Software Engineer Agent Generates actual service code (handlers, contracts, infra)
Test Automation Agent Generates endpoint and command tests
DevOps Agent Uses handler map to emit health checks, routes, policies
Documentation Agent Produces API reference pages and architecture docs

These artifacts inherit trace IDs and metadata from the blueprint for observability and traceability.


βœ… Summary

  • The Service Blueprint defines a complete backend service module.
  • It references entities, commands, events, and APIs via DSLs.
  • It orchestrates handler logic, API surface, projections, and tests.
  • It’s generated by the Product Manager Agent and consumed by Engineers, QA, Docs, and DevOps agents.

🧩 Module Blueprint

The Module Blueprint defines a focused functional unit or adapter within a larger service or frontend application. It can represent:

  • Internal components (e.g., logging module, email adapter)
  • External integrations (e.g., Stripe adapter, Kafka publisher)
  • UI feature modules (e.g., BookingCalendar UI component)

It is typically emitted by agents like the Software Engineer Agent, Frontend Developer Agent, or Platform Adapter Agent.


🧠 1. Purpose

Module Blueprints allow for:

  • 🧱 Explicit modeling of reusable units inside a service or app
  • 🧩 Composability and isolation of logic (e.g., auth, payments)
  • πŸ” Reuse across services (e.g., NotificationModule)
  • πŸ§ͺ Targeted test generation and instrumentation

They serve as a fine-grained blueprint layer underneath or alongside Service Blueprints.

βœ… Summary

  • Module Blueprints define scoped, reusable, testable software units.
  • They support both backend and frontend components (e.g., adapters, widgets).
  • DSLs used include adapters, events, UI components, retry policies, etc.
  • They are essential for micro-composability, reusability, and isolation within the factory.

🧩 Test Blueprint

The Test Blueprint defines structured, agent-readable test plans for verifying the correctness, coverage, and resiliency of generated components. It is typically produced by the QA Engineer Agent, Test Automation Agent, or indirectly derived from Service and Module Blueprints.

It ensures that all business logic, contracts, and flows are validatable, observable, and traceable via generated test cases.

βœ… Summary

  • The Traceability Blueprint connects all blueprints, DSLs, inputs, and artifacts.
  • It powers explainability, navigation, observability, and trace-based regeneration.
  • It is automatically built and maintained by orchestration and memory agents.
  • It is central to how the factory learns, audits, and evolves from past outputs.

🧩 Blueprint Observability Metadata & Span Templates

The Blueprint Observability Metadata defines structured telemetry annotations, span templates, metrics hooks, and trace enrichments that agents must inject into their generated components and outputs. This blueprint metadata is auto-attached to each blueprint via the Observability Agent and serves the foundation for tracing, debugging, SLO compliance, and cost visibility.

It standardizes the observability contract of every blueprint.


🧠 1. Purpose

It answers:

  • πŸ” How do we observe and monitor this blueprint’s output?
  • πŸ“ˆ Which metrics, spans, logs, and traces are emitted?
  • πŸ”„ How do we correlate blueprint inputs with production behavior?
  • 🚨 What hooks exist for alerting and auto-regeneration?

This metadata makes each blueprint self-traceable, self-monitoring, and studio-indexed.

🧩 Blueprint Feedback Loop Blueprint

The Blueprint Feedback Loop Blueprint defines how each blueprint integrates with runtime feedback, observability signals, test failures, user input, or design drift to trigger updates, corrections, or full regenerations. It is coordinated by the Feedback Loop Agent and relies on observability, memory, and test metadata.

This blueprint creates a closed-loop system where live behavior improves design artifacts β€” aligning the factory with continuous learning.


🧠 1. Purpose

It answers:

  • πŸ” What kinds of runtime feedback can affect this blueprint?
  • πŸ“‰ What errors or failures should trigger blueprint updates?
  • 🧠 How are memory, traces, and feedback ingested into the blueprint pipeline?

  • They integrate metrics, tests, logs, and user input into blueprint regeneration logic.
  • Enable continuous improvement and blueprint evolution based on real-world behavior.
  • Close the loop between AI-generated software and production reality.

🧩 Blueprint Composition & Inheritance

The Blueprint Composition & Inheritance pattern enables blueprints to be modular, reusable, and hierarchical, supporting shared logic, layered overrides, and context-specific variants. It is orchestrated by the Blueprint Resolver Engine and supported by the Knowledge Graph.

This capability allows large systems to be modeled as composable blueprint trees, where common parts (like logging, error handling, or cross-cutting concerns) are inherited or reused across multiple blueprints.


🧠 1. Purpose

It enables:

  • 🧱 Modularization of repeated patterns across services or editions
  • πŸͺœ Hierarchical layering (e.g., base product β†’ SaaS edition β†’ custom tenant)
  • πŸ” Reuse of DSLs, sections, or test cases across teams and services
  • 🧬 Override and patch support for edition-based or tenant-specific mutations

It transforms blueprints from static specs into scalable building blocks.

βœ… Summary

  • Blueprint Composition enables modular reuse, inheritance, and override across artifacts.
  • It is essential for scaling the factory across editions, tenants, and shared logic layers.
  • Used by Product, Infra, DevOps, and Documentation agents alike.
  • Powers maintainability, consistency, and evolution of platform-wide blueprint systems.

🧩 Blueprint Validation, Linting & Policy Enforcement

The Validation & Linting System ensures that all blueprints across the ConnectSoft AI Software Factory are syntactically valid, semantically consistent, and policy-compliant before being consumed by downstream agents or generation pipelines. It is enforced by the Validation Engine embedded within the Orchestration Kernel.

This guarantees that each blueprint is safe to generate, traceable, and aligned with platform-wide standards and enterprise rules.


🧠 1. Purpose

Validation answers:

  • βœ”οΈ Is this blueprint structurally correct and complete?
  • πŸ“š Are all referenced DSLs, artifacts, and IDs resolvable and versioned?
  • πŸ›‘οΈ Does this blueprint comply with security, privacy, and naming policies?
  • πŸ” Is this blueprint compatible with other referenced blueprints (composition graph)?

It prevents invalid or misconfigured blueprints from reaching generation or deployment stages.


🧬 2. Example Validation Rule Set

  • Driven by policy definitions, schema rules, and trace resolution checks.
  • Integrated across authoring, generation, promotion, and CI flows.
  • Protects against errors, inconsistencies, and misalignment with factory standards.

🧩 Blueprint Promotion Lifecycle (Draft β†’ Review β†’ Published)

The Blueprint Promotion Lifecycle defines the state machine, governance, and traceable transitions each blueprint goes through β€” from initial generation to review, publishing, and deprecation. This process is managed by the Blueprint Registry, supervised by the Blueprint Librarian Agent and optionally validated by human reviewers or external policy agents.

It ensures every blueprint follows a transparent, controlled, and versioned lifecycle aligned with enterprise standards.


🧠 1. Purpose

It answers:

  • πŸ§ͺ Is this blueprint in a usable and trusted state?
  • πŸ› οΈ Has it passed validation, feedback, and policy reviews?
  • πŸ“… When was it last promoted or deprecated?
  • 🧬 Which version is stable, draft, or deprecated for this domain or edition?

This lifecycle enables safe collaboration, continuous improvement, and release readiness.


πŸ” 2. Promotion States

State Description
draft Initial state; editable by agents or humans
validated Passed linting, schema checks, and DSL linking
under-review Marked for peer/agent approval, possibly includes CI/CD dry runs
published Locked; referenced by downstream generation pipelines or other blueprints
deprecated No longer used; may have a successor or be removed in next generation

🧬 3. Example Promotion Metadata

Hold "Alt" / "Option" to enable pan & zoom

πŸ“š 6. Registry and Audit Integration

Each blueprint is stored in the Blueprint Registry (backed by blob storage, versioned Git, and search index) with:

  • promotion-metadata.json
  • changelog.md
  • promotion-events.log
  • semantic version tagging

All transitions are auditable and traceable via the traceId + event log chain.


πŸ“… 7. Studio UI Integration

  • Blueprint status indicators (🟑 draft, 🟒 published, πŸ”΄ deprecated)
  • Promotion UI with changelog, diffs, reviewers
  • Button to rollback or republish previous version
  • Cross-linked to all consuming artifacts (pipelines, APIs, services)

βœ… Summary

  • Every blueprint follows a promotion lifecycle from draft to published or deprecated.
  • Each state is validated, versioned, and auditable by both agents and humans.
  • Promoted blueprints become stable contract points across the AI Software Factory.
  • The registry and Studio provide visibility, rollback, and governance interfaces.

🧩 DSL Referencing in Blueprints (vs. Embedding)

A key design principle of the ConnectSoft AI Software Factory is that blueprints do not embed full DSL definitions, but instead reference versioned DSL documents. This ensures reusability, consistency, traceability, and version control across all generated artifacts and blueprints.


🧠 1. Purpose

This design pattern answers:

  • πŸ“š How do blueprints reuse DSL definitions without duplicating content?
  • πŸ”— How do agents know which DSLs were used to generate this blueprint?
  • πŸ“Œ How is version consistency ensured across DSL consumers (e.g., services, tests, pipelines)?
  • 🧠 How does the factory trace which part of the DSL influenced the output?

Blueprints become semantic scaffolds that reference DSLs, not contain them.


πŸ“‚ 2. Referencing Syntax

dsl:
  - ref: dsls/entities/Appointment.yaml@v1.2.0
  - ref: dsls/events/AppointmentBooked.yaml@latest
  - ref: dsls/api/booking-api.yaml
  - ref: dsls/policies/rate-limits.yaml
  • ref: points to a semantic DSL URI
  • Optional version suffix (@vX.Y.Z) ensures traceable reproducibility
  • Supports wildcards, semantic tags, or pinned commits

πŸ”Ž 3. Comparison: Referencing vs. Embedding

Aspect Referencing DSLs Embedding DSLs
πŸ” Reusability High – many blueprints can reference Low – content duplicated
πŸ“š Traceability Full – ref tracked by knowledge graph Weak – embedded blocks hard to trace
πŸ“¦ Output size Compact – no bloated blueprint files Larger – DSLs repeated across blueprints
🧬 Evolvability Easier – DSLs can evolve independently Risky – embedded versions go stale
πŸ” Validation support DSL can be linted independently Blueprint validation harder

🧠 4. Agent Behavior When Referencing DSLs

Agent Type Behavior When Encountering ref:
Blueprint Generator Resolves the referenced DSL from registry
Validator Agent Ensures referenced DSL exists and is valid
Documentation Agent Includes ref headers or tooltips in output
Feedback Agent Links test failures to exact DSL ref line

πŸ“‚ 5. Example DSL Registry Organization

dsls/
  └── entities/
      β”œβ”€β”€ Appointment.yaml
      └── User.yaml
  └── events/
      └── AppointmentBooked.yaml
  └── api/
      └── booking-api.yaml
  └── pipelines/
      └── build-release-default.yaml
  • DSLs are stored in registry-backed folders, with semantic versioning
  • Registry supports:

  • Tags (@latest, @approved)

  • Hashes (commit-based pinning)
  • Dependencies (DSL importing other DSLs)

πŸ” 6. DSL Usage in Multi-Agent Pipelines

One DSL β†’ many blueprints β†’ many artifacts All traceable back to one canonical definition


πŸ“„ 7. Blueprint Snippet Example (Referencing DSLs)

blueprintId: booking-service-v2
type: Service
dsl:
  - ref: dsls/entities/Appointment.yaml@v1.0.3
  - ref: dsls/commands/BookAppointment.yaml@latest

Output files (e.g., Appointment.cs, BookAppointmentHandler.cs) embed generated logic but point back to source DSL via metadata and traceId.


βœ… Summary

  • Blueprints reference DSLs, never embed them β€” ensuring modularity, traceability, and reusability.
  • DSLs are stored and versioned independently in the DSL Registry.
  • All agents are equipped to resolve, validate, and trace these references automatically.
  • This principle powers the semantic contract layer of the entire AI Software Factory.

🧩 Blueprint Diagrams and Visualizations

To enhance understanding, explainability, and collaboration, every blueprint in the ConnectSoft AI Software Factory supports automated visual representations. These visualizations are generated by the Diagram Renderer Agent and embedded in both markdown docs and the Studio UI.

Blueprint diagrams help users and agents quickly grasp structure, flow, dependencies, events, and system behavior.


🧠 1. Purpose

Blueprint diagrams answer:

  • 🧩 What is the structural layout or flow of this blueprint?
  • πŸ”„ How do agents, services, modules, or events interact?
  • πŸ‘€ Can a human or AI review this quickly without parsing YAML?
  • πŸ”— What dependencies and references does this blueprint include?

Visuals serve as both documentation and runtime-explainable models.

Diagrams are automatically:

  • Regenerated when the blueprint content changes
  • Linked via traceId to source blueprint sections
  • Embedded into vector memory for explainable AI responses
  • Enhanced with click-to-navigate references in Studio

βœ… Summary

  • All blueprints are rendered with consistent, rich diagrams to explain their structure and behavior.
  • Diagrams are automatically generated and versioned alongside blueprint files.
  • They are used by agents, reviewers, and end users across documentation and Studio interfaces.
  • This visual layer is essential for explainability, onboarding, auditing, and traceability.

🧩 Blueprint-Based Generation vs. Template-Based Generation

One of the foundational innovations in the ConnectSoft AI Software Factory is the shift from template-based code generation to blueprint-driven, semantic generation. While templates still play a role, they are no longer the top-level driver β€” blueprints are.

This cycle defines the distinction, trade-offs, and orchestration strategy between high-level blueprints and low-level templates.


🧠 1. Purpose

This contrast answers:

  • 🧠 Why are blueprints the primary orchestration layer in the AI factory?
  • πŸ“¦ What is the role of templates β€” when are they used and how?
  • 🧬 How are blueprints, templates, DSLs, and prompts connected?
  • πŸ”„ Can templates evolve independently from the product design intent?

It enables full separation of intent (blueprint) and form (template).


πŸ” 2. Comparison Table

Feature Blueprint-Based Template-Based
Level of Abstraction High-level, semantic Low-level, structural
Origin AI agents, planning prompts Code generators, prewritten stubs
Structure YAML-based, modular, composable File/folder skeletons with tokens
Traceability Fully traceable via traceId + DSLs Limited trace, harder to backtrack
Reusability Blueprint logic applies across templates Templates reused per project
Evolvability Change vision β†’ regenerate multiple outputs Change template β†’ need manual sync
Studio Visibility Full visual canvas & DSL graph Hidden logic behind token injection

  • Templates render structure, based on DSL + blueprint context

πŸ”§ 4. Template Invocation from Blueprints

Example blueprint section:

templates:
  - use: template/service-handler
    input:
      command: BookAppointment
      entity: Appointment
      featureToggle: EnableManualConfirmation
      output: src/BookingService/BookAppointmentHandler.cs

The template/service-handler is reused across services β€” input fields come from blueprint context and DSL resolution.


🧠 5. Agent Participation

Agent Role
Blueprint Orchestrator Agent Chooses which templates to use, with which inputs
Code Generator Agent Executes template render with blueprint + DSL context
Validator Agent Verifies template injection matches blueprint intent
Editor Agent Lets human override or inspect rendered template output

🧬 6. Summary Rules

  • βœ… Always define what you want in a blueprint
  • βœ… Templates define how that intent is materialized
  • βœ… DSLs define vocabulary and contracts reused by both
  • πŸ” Templates can be updated across all consuming blueprints if versioned
  • πŸ“Ž Templates are linked via semantic URIs like template://service/handler@v2

πŸ§ͺ 7. Output Files

File Description
booking-service.yaml Blueprint input
BookAppointmentHandler.cs Rendered artifact from template
.factory/trace-map.yaml Links blueprint β†’ template β†’ DSL β†’ output
template-usage.log Diagnostic record of used templates

βœ… Summary

  • Blueprints orchestrate generation via high-level design intent.
  • Templates are implementation mechanisms scoped by blueprint context.
  • The shift from template-first to blueprint-first powers automation, reuse, and consistency.
  • The factory uses this layered model for maximum scalability and control.

🧩 Blueprint-Aware Testing and Coverage Mapping

In the AI Software Factory, tests are not just code artifacts β€” they are tightly coupled with blueprint definitions, DSL references, and system intents. This allows agents to generate, trace, validate, and regenerate tests based on blueprint scope, ensuring semantic coverage and behavioral fidelity.

This blueprint-aware model unlocks full test traceability, coverage visualization, and AI-driven validation feedback loops.


🧠 1. Purpose

This approach answers:

  • πŸ§ͺ Are all blueprint-defined behaviors covered by tests?
  • 🧬 Which commands, events, or features are untested?
  • πŸ” Can we regenerate tests from blueprint or DSL changes?
  • πŸ“Š What’s the test coverage across services, agents, and editions?

It powers automated QA pipelines with end-to-end semantic test scaffolding.


🧬 2. Example Blueprint Test Mapping

βœ… Summary

  • Blueprint-aware testing ensures all generated logic is validated against its intent.
  • Semantic mapping connects DSLs β†’ blueprints β†’ tests β†’ runtime behavior.
  • Missing test coverage is automatically detected and flagged for regeneration.
  • Enables high-trust generation with continuous, explainable test feedback loops.

🧩 Final Summary and Blueprinting Principles Recap

The Blueprint System is the semantic heart of the ConnectSoft AI Software Factory. It captures intent, structure, traceability, and coordination of everything the platform generates β€” from microservices to documentation, from pipelines to UI, from SaaS editions to observability.

This cycle consolidates all principles, best practices, and strategic value of blueprinting into a clear, actionable reference for both human architects and AI agents.


🎯 Blueprinting Principles

Principle Description
Intent-First Blueprints encode what to build, not how to build it
Composability Blueprints are modular, hierarchical, and can extend or override others
Traceability by Design Every artifact maps to its blueprint, DSL, agent, and originating intent
Separation of Concerns DSLs define semantics, templates define structure, blueprints orchestrate
Observability-First Each blueprint emits spans, logs, metrics, and feedback hooks
Policy-Aware Validated, linted, and compliant with global platform constraints
Multi-Agent Ready Blueprints are designed for collaborative AI agent workflows
Reusable Across Domains Blueprints work across microservices, pipelines, tests, docs, and editions
Memory-Integrated Blueprint traceIds and lineage power memory systems and regeneration loops
Promotion-Governed Draft β†’ Validated β†’ Reviewed β†’ Published β†’ Deprecated lifecycle enforced

🧱 Types of Blueprints (Recap)

Category Examples
Structural Microservice, API, Auth Server, SaaS Product
Behavioral Events, Commands, Handlers, Features, Workflows
Operational Pipelines, Observability, Runtime Configuration
Documentation Markdown artifacts, diagrams, help docs
Testing & QA SpecFlow files, test scenarios, feedback triggers
System Coordination Traceability, Feedback Loops, Promotion metadata

πŸ› οΈ Core Outputs Produced from Blueprints

Output Type Generated By
Source Code Templates parameterized via blueprint + DSL context
Tests & Features Derived from command/event/handler sections
Diagrams Mermaid/PlantUML rendered from structural metadata
Docs & Markdown Enriched markdown rendered from blueprint hierarchy
CI/CD Pipelines Assembled via orchestration pipeline blueprints
Observability Span maps, metric hooks, and traceId propagation
Feedback Triggers Auto-correction inputs to retrain or regenerate flows

βœ… Final Summary

The Blueprint System is the semantic contract layer that powers the entire ConnectSoft AI Software Factory:

β€œTemplates render, DSLs define, but blueprints decide what gets built, how it's structured, and why it exists.”

From vision to runtime, from planning to regeneration β€” every action, artifact, and agent in the factory revolves around the Blueprint System.
