What problem does it solve?

Addresses the risk of poorly planned architectures by surfacing long-term consequences, hidden costs, and governance gaps early.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Grounded Skepticism: routinely questions assumptions, identifies hidden costs, and surfaces historical failure modes.
• Constructive Progress: provides viable forward paths, safer first steps, and explicit trade-offs.
• Evidence-Linked Judgment: anchors recommendations to primary sources and concrete data.
• Use Cases: architectural decisions, legacy refactors, tooling evaluations, and broad planning questions.

Quick Start

Describe your architectural decision and ask COE to provide a risk-aware evaluation.
