## Integration with Pipeline

This documentation is integrated with the 25-step GNN processing pipeline:

### Core Processing (Steps 0-9)

- GNN parsing, validation, export
- DSPy can enhance GNN parsing with LLM assistance
- Structured prompting for model interpretation

### Simulation (Steps 10-16)

- Model execution and analysis
- DSPy-optimized LLM analysis (Step 13: LLM)
- Automated prompt optimization for model interpretation

### Integration (Steps 17-24)

- System coordination and output
- DSPy results integrated into comprehensive outputs
- LLM-enhanced documentation generation

See [src/gnn/AGENTS.md](../../../src/gnn/AGENTS.md) for complete pipeline documentation.
