Reconcile CSV rows against a web portal

Match by explicit keys, retain observed values, and review discrepancies without changing the portal.

Before the first run

  • A validated input CSV with stable keys
  • An authorized read-only portal scope
  • Defined comparison rules including units and dates
ACTION BOUNDARY

Define what the agent can do.

Read and compare only. Correcting a portal value or updating the source file’s authoritative record is a separate task.

The implementation sequence

  1. 01

    Validate the file

    Check headers, required keys, duplicates, and type parsing before opening a browser. Preserve the raw input alongside normalized values.

  2. 02

    Match one record at a time

    Use the approved identifier set to locate the portal record. Return an ambiguous state when more than one plausible record appears.

  3. 03

    Capture comparable values

    Record the observed field, unit, currency, date, and source reference. Do not compare a monthly total with a year-to-date total simply because their labels look similar.

  4. 04

    Apply explicit rules

    Run deterministic equality or tolerance checks outside the agent. Preserve both values and the rule that produced each discrepancy.

  5. 05

    Review the exception report

    Separate matches, mismatches, missing records, and inaccessible records. The report should let a reviewer inspect one discrepancy without repeating all lookups.

Stop for human approval

Authorize the record scope and export destination; a responsible reviewer decides what action to take on discrepancies.
