version: "1.0.0" name: analyze-variants description: Use when investigating common or slow variants, repeated work, unusual paths, or a specific Process Mining case. allowed-tools: Read, AskUserQuestion


Variants, rework and exact cases

Use the shared contract and filters/units. Choose the branch answering the question; do not run a variant overview before an exact-case or rework request.

Ordered traces

Common or slow variants

  1. get_variants_with_metrics_v2 {S,filterOptions:F,itemsPerPage:5,itemsToSkip:0,metricToSortBy:"CaseCount",sortOrder:"Descending"}.
  2. Only if mean-case slowness still needs comparison, repeat with metricToSortBy:"CaseDuration".

If the first complete result already answers it, stop. CaseDuration is a mean; variant Duration is not its substitute.

Cases with repeated work

  1. Copy F, appending to caseMetricConditionFilters:

{metric:"CaseReworkCount",comparisonOperator:"GreaterThan",values:[0],isInclusive:true}.

  1. get_cases_with_metrics_v2 {S,filterOptions:Fplus,itemsPerPage:5,itemsToSkip:0,metricToSortBy:"ReworkCount",sortOrder:"Descending"}.

A native count suffices; no formula or saved metric is needed.

  1. Only for unresolved transition evidence:

get_edges_with_metrics_v2 {S,filterOptions:Fplus,itemsPerPage:10,itemsToSkip:0}. No edge sort exists; mark incomplete evidence page-local.

A specific case

  1. Reuse details to identify the metadata-proven case-key attribute K and its type T.

Bind the exact user/returned value X, e.g. synthetic "Demo-17".

  1. Append {attributeName:K,dataType:T,attributeValues:[X],isInclusive:true} to F's

attributeValueFilters; call get_cases_with_metrics_v2 {S,filterOptions:Fcase,itemsPerPage:5,itemsToSkip:0}.

  1. An optional same-cohort bottleneck/edge query can summarize activities/handoffs.

If no exposed key expresses the case, stop; do not scan all cases or invent caseId.

Guardrails

Continue relevant pages or drilldowns until the question is answered or evidence cannot discriminate; no fixed call/total-row quota or automatic repeated queries. Show at most five headline rows by default. Use filterOptions, itemsPerPage and itemsToSkip, not filters, metrics, limit or offset. No variantId filter exists. For a user-specified sequence use only discovered attribute values and the advertised sequence-filter schema; do not reconstruct unavailable variant Values. No event-timeline or conformance-check tool exists. Rework/variation alone proves neither event order nor a conformance violation. Retain scope, versions, metric units and partial coverage.

Activity occurrence is not full payment, successful dismissal, business closure or compliance. Check the business outcome definition and available attributes/measures; route missing measures to derive-metric, never infer success from an event name. Missing events or terminal-looking traces may be censored, ongoing, legitimately ended or incompletely recorded. Do not choose without closure, recording and observation-coverage evidence. Use the investigation method: distinguish observed presence/counts from tested outcomes; mark an unresolved outcome inconclusive and retain definition provenance, baseline/test filters, evidence references and the next discriminating check.
