Processing SIEM tickets with AI: workflow tool or pure agent?

A security practitioner asks for advice: a client wants AI to process SIEM tickets to improve classification and produce proposed solutions, then create tickets in a CMDB.

The author proposed an orchestration approach using n8n or Logic Apps: pull data from SIEM → search similar cases in CMDB for enrichment → an agent processes and outputs results with a confidence score → submit back to CMDB.

Their manager argues everything can be done by a single agent without a workflow tool. With limited agentic AI experience, the author asks which approach is right — a classic structured-orchestration vs. autonomous-agent tradeoff involving reliability, auditability and cost.
