Discover Architecture

Analyze a codebase to identify its architecture style(s) by reading actual source code — not by counting filesystem signals or matching directory name patterns. Architecture is about structure and relationships: how modules communicate, where boundaries are enforced, what the dependency graph looks like. These things require reading code, not scanning for Dockerfiles.
