How should I scope a pilot environment for this workflow?
A narrow pilot fixes one domain, a few match patterns, one policy set and your actual tool surface, so you learn whether the material fits before widening it.
The most useful pilot is narrow and tied to your harness. Scope it around five decisions.
**1. One domain.** Choose utility billing, insurance premiums, freight, clinic accounts or professional services. A sample organisation such as Aster Financial can be a starting point if you prefer financial services.
**2. A few task families.** For example one-to-many matching, short-pays with a policy tolerance, and unidentified payments that should be held. Fewer families mean you can read every failure.
**3. One policy set.** Keep authority limits and dispute rules fixed at first so differences in agent behaviour are not confounded by policy changes.
**4. Your tool surface.** Tell MirrorFirm which actions your agents have, which errors they receive and how state is stored, so records and references can follow that shape.
**5. A decision rule.** Write down in advance what result would make you widen the scope, change it or stop. Include your own review for grounding and disclosure risk.
Volume, formats and delivery arrangements are agreed in discussion and are not fixed in advance here. The limits that apply to the output are that it is generated and synthetic, that it is not real business records, and that it carries no guarantee of anonymity or compliance.
Start narrow and compatible with your harness: one domain, a few task families, one policy set, and a clear way to judge the result.
