FAQPage Schema
How do I validate my planned architecture against existing ADRs to prevent design drift?▼

To validate planned architecture against ADRs, load decisions from memory, drafts, and team directives, then compare them with your generated plan to identify misalignments and return actionable findings with severity levels for remediation.

What is the best way to check architecture decisions for consistency across memory, drafts, and team directives?▼

Checking architecture decisions for consistency involves loading ADRs from memory, drafts, and team directives, reading the AD.md file, and performing seven pillar checks against the generated plan to surface blocking issues.

How do I run a read-only assessment of my active plan for architecture misalignments?▼

Run a read-only assessment of your active plan by executing the architect.validate command, which compares the plan against ADRs and AD.md to return findings with severity levels and optional JSON output.

Can I get JSON output from architecture validation to integrate with other engineering tooling?▼

Yes, you can get JSON output from architecture validation by enabling the optional JSON output feature, which returns the findings of the seven pillar checks in a structured format for integration with other engineering tooling.

Does architecture validation require an AD.md file to surface blocking issues and inconsistencies?▼

Architecture validation requires an AD.md file to compare against the generated plan, loading ADRs from memory, drafts, and team directives to surface blocking issues and inconsistencies during the seven pillar checks.
