SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Automated compliance agents can only provide guidance, not personalised financial advice or judgment calls on high-risk cases. This Skill ensures such requests are recognised, refused safely, and routed to the right human desk instead of being answered incorrectly. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Escalation Detection: Identifies requests for personalised financial or investment advice, high-risk scenarios (sanctions hits, suspected fraud, PEP matches, beneficial-ownership ambiguity), knowledge-base coverage gaps, and conflicting rules. - Matrix-Based Routing: Calls search_compliance_rules to retrieve the escalation matrix, cites the relevant numbered section, and names the responsible role such as compliance officer, fraud desk, or qualified financial adviser. - Safe Handoff: Refuses to answer out-of-scope parts directly, sharing only compliance context that is safe to disclose before handing off. - Use Case: A customer asks a banking support agent whether a specific investment product is right for them. The Skill states the escalation reason, retrieves the escalation matrix, and routes the case to a qualified financial adviser without giving advice. ## Quick Start Use the escalation skill to handle this customer request asking for personalised investment advice and route it to the correct human desk.

FAQPage Schema
How do I escalate a compliance request to a human reviewer?▼

State the escalation reason in one line, call search_compliance_rules to retrieve the escalation matrix, then name the responsible role from the matrix such as the compliance officer or fraud desk. Cite the relevant numbered section as the source.

When should a compliance agent escalate instead of answering?▼

Escalate when the request asks for personalised financial or investment advice, involves high-risk scenarios like sanctions hits or suspected fraud, falls outside the compliance knowledge base, or involves two conflicting rules with no deterministic resolution.

Can a compliance agent give personalised investment advice?▼

No. Compliance guidance is allowed, but personalised financial or investment advice is never permitted. The agent must refuse politely, share only safe compliance context, and route the case to a qualified financial adviser.

What output format does an escalation response use?▼

The response contains three parts: a one-line escalation reason, the route-to role or desk taken from the escalation matrix, and sources listing the file plus the numbered section cited from the compliance rules.

What happens when compliance rules conflict with each other?▼

When two rules conflict and the resolution is not deterministic, the case is escalated rather than resolved automatically. The agent states the conflict as the reason and routes it to the responsible human role defined in the escalation matrix.
