AI GLOSSARY
Key concepts across the BluPrint platform
Agent Orchestration
Coordination of multiple AI agents working together on complex tasks, handling task distribution, communication, and conflict resolution.
Agentic AI
AI systems capable of autonomous decision-making and multi-step action execution, adapting based on feedback and changing conditions.
Constitution-Driven Development
A methodology where non-negotiable quality rules are encoded as machine-enforceable constraints that gate every build, merge, and deployment.
Durable Workflow
Fault-tolerant execution where long-running processes survive crashes and restarts, with state persisted at each step for automatic retry.
LLM Observability
Monitoring every interaction with language models — request/response logging, token tracking, latency, cost attribution, and quality scoring.
mTLS
Mutual Transport Layer Security — both client and server authenticate each other using digital certificates before data exchange.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Enhancing AI responses by retrieving relevant information from external sources before generating, combining model breadth with data accuracy.
Semantic Search
Search that understands meaning rather than matching keywords, using vector embeddings to find conceptually relevant results.
Spec-Driven Development
Structured specifications define what should be built before code is written, driving automated planning, implementation, and validation.
Zero-Trust Secrets
Credentials managed in a centralized vault with hardware-backed encryption, delivered to services at runtime through audited channels.
