# Issue trend analysis AI agent

This AI agent analyzes grouped task data from cases, incidents, problems, or other tables to identify recurring issues and root causes.

## Workflow

The agent provides detailed, actionable recommendations through structured analysis.

1.  Extract the record type from the user's input.
2.  Pass the extracted record types to the Get Task Analysis Config tool.
3.  Prompt the user for a timeframe.
4.  Acknowledge and use the Compute Trend Analysis tool to analyze the information.
