To check if a design document matches the codebase, you need a consistency check tool that scans source code repositories and compares them against design specs to pinpoint discrepancies. This Skill performs that exact codebase analysis to highlight architectural divergence.

Design document review is the process of verifying that approved design specifications align with the actual codebase implementation. It ensures architectural integrity by identifying and reporting discrepancies between the documented design and the source code.

You can verify code implementation by running a codebase analysis against the design document. This Skill reviews the design specs and source code repository to identify and report areas where the feature implementation diverges from the approved plan.

Yes, you need access to both the design documents and the source code repository. This Skill requires comparing the design file against the actual codebase to perform a consistency check and identify architectural discrepancies.

The best way to maintain architectural integrity is to perform regular consistency checks between design documents and the codebase. This highlights discrepancies early, ensuring the software development workflow maintains feature consistency before release.

Code implementation diverges from the design document when development changes are not reflected in the specs. A codebase analysis identifies these specific discrepancies by reviewing the source code repository against the original design document.
