AI Bot Architecture Decision

December 28, 2025 at 3:10 AMtechnicalmedium

Situation

Decided to build a web app to front the AI bot, allowing curated outputs to be shared with Sarah and others without granting direct data access to underlying Slack/email/Jira data.

Reasoning

Pragmatic technical solution that enables continued AI innovation while respecting security concerns. Creating a curated output layer solves both the immediate access problem (Sarah needs visibility into priorities/todos) and the security concern (no direct data access for others).

Additional Context

Moody raised concerns about the security risk of the AI bot ingesting data from multiple sources, conflicting with ISO 42001 framework CIQ is pursuing. Rather than debating policy, found a technical middle ground.
