• generating, by the rule management system, a textual summary of the first application rule;
• encoding the textual summary of the first application rule, by the rule management system, to generate a first rule vector;
• receiving an application rule query, by the rule management system, the application rule query including a query description;
• encoding the query description, by the rule management system, to generate a first query vector;
• selecting, by the rule management system, the first application rule as responsive to the application rule query using the first rule vector and the first query vector;
• and
• returning, by the rule management system, the first application rule in response to the application rule query.

• receiving an application rule query, the application rule query including a query description;
• encoding the query description to generate a first query vector;
• selecting the first application rule as responsive to the application rule query using the first rule vector and the first query vector;
• and
