SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Technical leadership requires early, rigorous evaluation of execution plans to catch architectural issues, tech debt risks, and suboptimal technology choices before code is written.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Architecture assessment using ADR-inspired guidance to verify system design decisions and alignment with team patterns.
  • Tech debt detection and mitigation planning to keep long-term maintenance in check.
  • Technology evaluation and integration readiness assessment to anticipate complexity, vendor impact, and costs.
  • Observability and quality considerations to ensure monitoring, logging, and testing are planned from the outset.

Quick Start

Invoke the CTO plan reviewer on your track by running claude /cto-advisor with your plan.md and spec.md in context.

FAQPage Schema
How do I review architecture decisions in plan.md before coding?

To review architecture decisions in plan.md, you need a CTO-grade evaluation that applies ADR-inspired guidance to verify system design choices and alignment with team patterns. This process identifies architectural risks and suboptimal technology choices before execution begins.

What is tech debt assessment and when do I need it during system design?

Tech debt assessment is the detection and mitigation planning of long-term maintenance risks within your execution plan. You need it during tracks involving architecture decisions, technology choices, integrations, or infrastructure changes to catch suboptimal patterns early.

How do I evaluate integration readiness and observability considerations for new infrastructure?

Evaluating integration readiness requires anticipating complexity, vendor impact, and costs for planned technology choices. An architecture review assesses observability considerations by ensuring monitoring, logging, and testing are planned from the outset within your spec.md.

Can I use an ADR-inspired approach to catch architectural risks in my execution plan?

Yes, applying ADR-inspired guidance to your plan.md verifies system design decisions and alignment with team patterns. This architecture assessment catches architectural risks, tech debt, and suboptimal technology choices before code is written.

What are the limitations of relying solely on plan evaluation for tech debt detection?

Plan evaluation limitations include its reliance on the completeness of plan.md and spec.md context. It specifically targets tracks involving architecture decisions and infrastructure changes, meaning it may not catch runtime tech debt or implementation-level architectural risks emerging during coding.
