Sounds about right to me. You need to look at a Custom Rule (there is a "how to" on the FarCry site).
A Custom Rule has two methods: * one to edit the parameters for the rule in the container popup * one to execute the rule to populate the request.aInvocations And for doing what you want to do, the rulesNews.cfc (from the core) is a good example of how to locate objects in certain categories.
