Brooks-Lint — Architecture Audit

Setup

1. Read ../_shared/common.md for the Iron Law, Project Config, Report Template, and Health Score rules
2. Read ../_shared/source-coverage.md for book-level coverage, exceptions, and tradeoffs
3. Read ../_shared/decay-risks.md for symptom definitions and source attributions
4. Read architecture-guide.md in this directory for the audit framework

Process

Onboarding mode: If the user asks for an onboarding report, codebase tour, or "explain this codebase to a new developer", read onboarding-guide.md from this directory and follow it instead of architecture-guide.md. This mode explains rather than diagnoses — no Health Score, no Iron Law findings.

If the user has not specified files or a directory to audit: apply Auto Scope Detection from ../_shared/common.md to determine the audit scope before proceeding.
