SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Audits Claude Code configurations against Anthropic's Claude Architect framework to identify gaps and misalignments that prevent certification readiness or reliable operation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured, phase-based audit across CLAUDE.md layering, enforcement strategy, tool descriptions, context management, and agent architecture.
  • Actionable fixes and recommendations to bring Claude Code configurations into architectural compliance and governance discipline.
  • Use Case: teams preparing for Claude Architect certification or diagnosing why Claude Code isn't performing as expected.

Quick Start

Run the claude-architect-audit against your Claude Code project to generate a phased assessment and improvement plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit my Claude Code configuration for Architect certification readiness?

Auditing Claude Code for Architect certification involves running a phased assessment that validates CLAUDE.md layering, enforcement strategy, MCP tool descriptions, context hygiene, and multi-agent architecture to identify and fix architectural misalignments.

What does Claude Code CLAUDE.md layering validation check during an architectural audit?

CLAUDE.md layering validation checks the hierarchical configuration structure to ensure proper context scoping, preventing conflicts and maintaining robust operability across your Claude Code project environment.

Why does my Claude Code setup fail to perform reliably despite having configurations in place?

Claude Code performance issues often stem from misaligned enforcement strategies, poor context hygiene, or inadequate tool descriptions that an architectural audit can diagnose and provide actionable fixes to resolve.

Can I use an architectural audit to check both prompt-based and hook-based enforcement strategies in Claude Code?

Yes, an architectural audit validates both prompt-based and hook-based enforcement strategies in Claude Code configurations, evaluating their effectiveness and recommending improvements for robust governance compliance.

What is the best way to diagnose MCP tool description quality in a Claude Code project?

Diagnosing MCP tool description quality is best achieved through an architectural audit that evaluates context management and tool descriptions against the Architect framework to ensure robust Claude Code operability.

Are there limitations to what a Claude Code architectural compliance audit can detect?

The audit focuses on structural compliance across CLAUDE.md layering, enforcement, tool descriptions, context management, and agent architecture, but does not evaluate runtime execution behavior or dynamic performance metrics.
