Deepen Codebase Architecture

Architecture deepening workflow inspired by Matt Pocock-style organic codebase exploration and Ousterhout's deep module framing, but self-contained. It turns code navigation friction into candidate clusters, then designs smaller public interfaces that hide more implementation.

Start

If the user did not name a mode, ask for one before doing heavy work:

• audit: find candidate clusters. Do not propose an interface.
• design: take one selected candidate and design competing interfaces.
• issue: turn an accepted design into a GitHub RFC issue.
• full: audit, ask for a candidate, design, ask for approval, then create the issue.

Ask in one line: Mode: audit, design, issue, or full?

If the mode is clear, continue without asking. Load:
