Ask the Enterprise Brain anything...
Query product flows, service ownership, metrics, or current operational status
Walk me through the checkout flow end to end — which services and teams own each step, and where are the current bottlenecks?

Process Overview
Checkout runs in five stages per process model CHK-001: Cart → Payment authorization → Fraud check → Order creation → Confirmation & events.

Current State
payment-service p95 at 220ms — recovered from this morning's INC-2026-0473. risk-svc queue depth normal. events-pipeline running with a 12-minute lag, within SLA.
Bottlenecks & Edge Cases
Payment retries during provider failover add up to 8 seconds of tail latency (runbook RB-114)
Guest checkout silently skips fraud enrichment when risk-svc times out — documented edge case, compensating batch check runs hourly
Refund events arrive out of order on high-volume days — reconciliation job handles reordering

Domain concepts resolved:
'checkout flow' → resolved per BPMN process CHK-001
ownership → resolved via service registry and RACI
'bottleneck' → per SLA breach and tail-latency definitions
