# Northstar Payer Operations

## Core Workflow

1. Read the user prompt, `input/payloads/task_context.json`, and `input/payloads/answer_template.json` before querying. Treat the template as the output contract.
2. Get the target ID, reporting date or period, base URL, SQL endpoint, and bearer token from the prompt/context. Use only the exposed business endpoints and SQL endpoint; do not inspect environment source, database, generated data, manifests, or setup files.
3. Discover records from the live environment, not from local examples. Start with `/api/tables` when schema is uncertain. For SQL, use [scripts/query_northstar.py](scripts/query_northstar.py).
4. Pull every record family that can affect the requested disposition: case, member, plan, request lines, policy, criteria, documents, facts, authorizations, appeals, assistance screens, drug trials, claims, claim lines, payment benchmarks, P2P events, or service margin rows as applicable.
5. Resolve the business result using the source-precedence rule implied by the work type and answer template. See [references/northstar_operations.md](references/northstar_operations.md) for task-specific checklists.
6. Build only the JSON object requested by the template. Match required keys, enum values, null handling, ordering rules, date formats, and numeric precision exactly. Do not add prose or markdown.
