What problem does it solve?
It prevents weak or inconsistent technical decisions by turning sprint inputs into a clear architecture plan, an enforceable reviewer checklist, and a closing architectural verdict.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Sprint architecture design: Creates
/docs/sprint/{name}/architecture.md with components, ports, data flow, and named pattern justifications, explicitly covering hex-lite layering, CQS, and SRP compliance.
- Binary reviewer governance: Produces
/docs/sprint/{name}/reviewer-checklist.md as a pass/fail gate layered on top of /docs/styleguide.md.
- Decision tracking & change signaling: Writes new ADRs when cross-file or cross-sprint decisions occur and outputs Drizzle schema diffs for schema changes.
- Strike-3 escalation directive: When a task fails three times, reviews the approach vs. implementation failure mode and issues a concise directive for the builder’s 4th attempt without writing production code.
Quick Start
Use the architect skill to generate /docs/sprint/{name}/architecture.md and /docs/sprint/{name}/reviewer-checklist.md for a given sprint named {name}.
