MCAF: Architecture Overview

Trigger On

• create the first repo-wide architecture map
• modules, boundaries, interfaces, or ownership changed
• onboarding is slow because there is no short "start here" system map

Value

• produce a concrete project delta: code, docs, config, tests, CI, or review artifact
• reduce ambiguity through explicit planning, verification, and final validation skills
• leave reusable project context so future tasks are faster and safer

Do Not Use For

• recording a single architecture decision with alternatives
• writing feature-level behaviour details
