Architecture Decision Framework
"Requirements drive architecture. Trade-offs inform decisions. ADRs capture rationale."
🎯 Selective Reading Rule
Read ONLY files relevant to the request! Check the content map, find what you need.
| File | Description | When to Read |
|------|-------------|--------------|
| context-discovery.md | Questions to ask, project classification | Starting architecture design |
| trade-off-analysis.md | ADR templates, trade-off framework | Documenting decisions |
| pattern-selection.md | Decision trees, anti-patterns | Choosing patterns |
| examples.md | MVP, SaaS, Enterprise examples | Reference implementations |
| patterns-reference.md | Quick lookup for patterns | Pattern comparison |

Core Principle
"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
- Start simple
- Add complexity ONLY when proven necessary
- You can always add patterns later
- Removing complexity is MUCH harder than adding it
Validation Checklist
Before finalizing architecture:
- [ ] Requirements clearly understood
- [ ] Constraints identified
- [ ] Each decision has trade-off analysis
- [ ] Simpler alternatives considered
- [ ] ADRs written for significant decisions
- [ ] Team expertise matches chosen patterns

Anxiety-aware, evidence-driven collaboration for stalled or high-stakes work when a user says uncertainty, repeated setbacks, or lack of visible progress is causing significant anxiety or distress. Use immediately when explicitly invoked; when this fit is only inferred from the user's own account, ask permission before applying it. Preserve the user's ideal and turn grounded perspective-taking into persistent, bounded problem solving. Do not use to diagnose, provide therapy, manufacture certainty, or lower goals for reassurance.
