Brooks-Lint — Architecture Audit

Setup

Read in order:

1. ../_shared/common.md — Iron Law, Project Config, Report Template, Health Score
2. ../_shared/source-coverage.md — book coverage, exceptions, tradeoffs
3. ../_shared/decay-risks.md — symptom definitions and source attributions
4. architecture-guide.md (this directory) — 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.
