Steps

Step 1: Data preparation

Agent: data

engineer - Extract historical time series data

Step 2: Stationarity check

Agent: data

scientist - Check for stationarity, apply differencing if needed

Step 3: Seasonality detection

Agent: data

scientist - Detect seasonal patterns, trends

Step 4: Model selection

Agent: data

scientist - Choose ARIMA, Prophet, LSTM, or XGBoost

Step 5: Train/test split

Agent: data

scientist - Time-based split (train on historical, test on recent)

Step 6: Model training

Agent: data

scientist - Train forecasting model

Step 7: Validation

Agent: data

scientist - Validate on test set, calculate MAPE, RMSE

Step 8: Forecast generation

Agent: data

scientist - Generate forecasts for next N periods
