SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Merges the latest consolidated architecture with all subsequent architecture-update documents to produce a single, up-to-date baseline for reference and onboarding.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Consolidates the base architecture with updates to reflect reality.
  • Validates consistency with the codebase and Mermaid diagrams.
  • Produces a new docs/clasi/architecture/architecture-MMM.md and archives older versions to done/.

Quick Start

Identify the latest architecture baseline and all newer architecture-update files, then generate a new consolidated document and archive the previous version.

FAQPage Schema
How do I consolidate architecture documents into a single baseline?

Consolidate architecture documents by merging the latest baseline with subsequent architecture-update files into a single current file. The tool identifies architecture-NNN.md and update files, outputs a new architecture-MMM.md, and archives older versions to a done directory.

When do I need to merge architecture update files?

Merging architecture update files is necessary during sprint transitions, onboarding, and before major refactors. This process ensures the architecture reflects reality by validating consistency with the codebase and Mermaid diagrams while producing a clean, up-to-date reference.

How does architecture consolidation handle outdated Mermaid diagrams?

Architecture consolidation validates consistency with the codebase and Mermaid diagrams during the merge. It integrates the latest baseline with all subsequent architecture-update documents to ensure diagrams reflect the current reality of the system.

Can I use this to prepare architecture documentation for onboarding?

Yes, this is specifically applicable for onboarding when the architecture needs a clean, up-to-date reference. It merges the base architecture with updates to produce a single consolidated document that reflects the current system state.

What happens to older architecture files after consolidation?

Older architecture files are archived to the docs/clasi/architecture/done/ directory after consolidation. The process generates a new docs/clasi/architecture/architecture-MMM.md file as the current baseline, moving previous versions out of the active path.
