Mapping Architecture & Semantic Indexing

How the unified finance & banking schema maps to the existing systems of record, how the semantic indexing pipeline processes it, and how the ReAct agent uses the indexed ontology to serve queries and take actions.


Schema-First Architecture

The finance & banking ontology uses a schema-first approach — the unified schema is the primary knowledge source, not the FDW foreign tables. FDW becomes a mapping resolution layer that annotates which schema entities have live database connections.

flowchart TD
    subgraph SchemaOverlay [Unified Schema - finance-banking-schema.yaml]
        CBS["CBS Entities<br/>Customer_Master, Deposit_Account, Transaction_Ledger..."]
        LOS["LOS Entities - virtual<br/>Loan_Application, Loan_Account, Collateral..."]
        AML["AML Entities - virtual<br/>AML_Alert, SAR_Filing, Watchlist_Match..."]
        MKT["Market Data - virtual<br/>Yield_Curve, Macro_Indicator, Sector_Index..."]
        UNS["Unstructured - virtual<br/>KYC_Document, Loan_Document, Contract_Document..."]
    end

    subgraph FDWLayer [FDW Mapping Resolution]
        DISC["FDW Discovery Service<br/>pg_foreign_server + information_schema"]
        MATCH["Match schema fdw_table<br/>to live foreign tables"]
    end

    subgraph Status [Mapping Status]
        MAPPED["MAPPED<br/>Live FDW table exists<br/>Queryable via SQL"]
        VIRTUAL["VIRTUAL<br/>Data via integration<br/>Not directly queryable"]
        UNMAPPED["UNMAPPED<br/>Expected FDW table<br/>not yet connected"]
    end

    CBS --> MATCH
    DISC --> MATCH
    MATCH --> MAPPED
    LOS --> VIRTUAL
    AML --> VIRTUAL
    MKT --> VIRTUAL
    UNS --> VIRTUAL

Entity Mapping Status

Status Meaning Count Example
Mapped Live FDW foreign table exists; entity is queryable via query_table tool ~8 Customer_Master, Deposit_Account, Transaction_Ledger, SF_Account
Virtual Entity data flows via integration sync; not directly queryable via FDW ~38 Loan_Account, AML_Alert, Yield_Curve, Investment_Holding
Unmapped Schema defines the entity but no FDW table or integration connected yet ~4 Process_Event_Log, Household (derived entities)

Semantic RAG Pipeline (12 Steps)

The pipeline follows the same 12-step process as other vertical ontologies, extended with Steps 1A (Unified Schema Extraction) and 1B (FDW Mapping Resolution):

flowchart LR
    subgraph Extraction [Extraction Phase]
        S1A["Step 1A<br/>Unified Schema Extract<br/>~50 entities from *-schema.yaml"]
        S1B["Step 1B<br/>FDW Mapping Resolution<br/>Match to live FDW tables"]
        S1C["Step 1C<br/>Legacy FDW Extract<br/>Non-schema FDW tables"]
        S2["Step 2<br/>Policy Extract<br/>8 policies from *.md"]
        S3["Step 3<br/>Workflow Extract<br/>10 workflows from *.yaml"]
        S4["Step 4<br/>Integration Extract<br/>6 integrations from *.yaml"]
    end

    subgraph Processing [Processing Phase]
        S5["Step 5<br/>Normalize + Dedupe<br/>Merge into OntoBundle"]
        S6["Step 6<br/>Enrich<br/>Basel/IFRS/FATF-aware"]
        S7["Step 7<br/>Chunk + Embed"]
    end

    subgraph Loading [Loading Phase]
        S8["Step 8<br/>Load pgvector"]
        S9["Step 9<br/>Load Apache AGE Graph"]
        S10["Step 10<br/>Validate - scenarios"]
    end

    S1A --> S1B --> S1C --> S5
    S2 --> S5
    S3 --> S5
    S4 --> S5
    S5 --> S6 --> S7 --> S8 --> S9 --> S10

Step Details

Step File What It Does
1A unified_schema_extractor.py Reads finance-banking-schema.yaml; creates OntoDocuments for every entity with Basel pillar, IFRS 9 stage, FATF recommendation, and FDW mapping status annotations
1B fdw_mapping_resolver.py Queries FDWDiscoveryService to match schema entities to live FDW foreign tables; annotates as mapped/virtual/unmapped; enriches mapped entities with live column metadata
1C fdw_extractor.py Original FDW extractor for non-schema tables (backward compatibility)
2 policy_extractor.py Auto-discovers all *.md from enterprise-knowledge/policies/ — includes 8 finance-banking policies
3 workflow_extractor.py Auto-discovers all *.yaml from enterprise-knowledge/workflows/ — includes 10 finance-banking workflows
4 integration_extractor.py Auto-discovers all *.yaml from enterprise-knowledge/integrations/ — includes 6 finance-banking integrations
5 normalizer.py Merges all extracted documents; deduplicates by ID; merges relationships and structured_metadata on collision
6 enricher.py Schema entities: auto-enriched with Basel pillar, IFRS 9 classification, FATF recommendation, and FDW status. Policies/workflows/integrations: LLM-enriched via gpt-4o-mini
7 chunker.py 1 document = 1 chunk; batch embedded (20/batch) via OpenAI text-embedding-3-small
8 vector_loader.py Upserted to pgvector control_plane_embeddings with content_type: onto_schema, onto_policy, onto_workflow, onto_integration
9 graph_loader.py Nodes (Entity) and edges (triggers/syncs_to/constrained_by/depends_on/validates) merged into Apache AGE enterprise_onto graph
10 validator.py Black-box test scenarios validating retrieval quality across 6 dimensions

What Gets Indexed

Source Content Type Approx Count
Unified schema (CBS + LOS + AML + Market Data + DMS + Salesforce FSC) onto_schema ~50
Policies (8 finance-banking) onto_policy ~55+ (split by section)
Workflows (10 finance-banking) onto_workflow ~10
Integrations (6 finance-banking) onto_integration ~6
Total ~120+

ReAct Agent and Tools

The ReAct agent uses the indexed ontology to answer questions and take actions. The flow is: Search ontology -> Reason with policies -> Execute actions -> Validate compliance.

    Agent->>Policy: check_policy_compliance("stress_test", "ECL_Staging", "sector decline 20%")
    Policy-->>Agent: COMPLIANT — within stress test authority per POL-CR-001
