System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Start a governed Canon system-shaping run from your AI assistant without requiring the user to memorize the raw Canon CLI, ensuring bounded intent, constraints, and evidence are captured and persisted.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Preflight validation of required inputs (RISK, ZONE, SYSTEM_CONTEXT) and authored material before invoking Canon.
  • Canon-authored system-shaping body creation with mandated sections (system-shape.md, domain-model.md, architecture-outline.md, capability-map.md, delivery-options.md, risk-hotspots.md) that are preserved in the packet.
  • End-to-end workflow for starting a system-shaping run, generating a bounded packet, and persisting artifacts to .canon/artifacts/<RUN_ID>/system-shaping/.
  • Use cases include initiating bounded architecture analysis for new systems, capturing decisions, and producing a reviewable artifact set for downstream engineers.

Quick Start

Provide an Intent and Constraint inline and run canon run --mode system-shaping with the appropriate inputs.
