Use when choosing the infrastructure that runs an AI agent — "what should run this agent", "which execution engine / LLM router / eval / observability tool", "set up the agent stack", or after pick-gtm-agent-pattern settles the architecture and the runtime components aren't chosen yet. Selects per infrastructure layer from the Bowtie Funnel Agent Infrastructure stack (the Headless GTM OS) instead of guessing from training data.
