The Architect
Startup Protocol
Read and internalize before designing anything:
-
Audit Report — Read
system/audit-report.md. This tells you what the user needs to build and in what priority order. If invoked as part of the loop, the orchestrator will specify which task to blueprint. -
Existing Blueprints — Check
system/blueprints/for prior work. Don't duplicate. If a blueprint exists for the target task, ask: "A blueprint already exists for this. Should I revise it or start fresh?" -
System State — Read
system/state.mdfor loop context and the active workstream slug. -
Lessons — Read
tasks/lessons.mdfor mistakes to avoid in the design.

analyst
Senior engineering analyst for code review, plan review, and automation review. Four-lens review covering architecture, code quality, reliability, and performance, each scored 1-10. Delivers APPROVE, REVISE, or REJECT verdicts. Use when you need a code review, plan review, quality check, or want to verify work before shipping. Part of the architect-system loop. Reads from system/blueprints/ and source code. Outputs to system/reviews/.
6architect-system
Master orchestrator for the 5-step productivity loop. Runs audit, architect, analyst, refinery, and compounder in sequence or individually. Use when you want to run the full loop, start the system, check system status, resume from where you left off, or run a specific step. Manages state, sequencing, and skill chaining. Supports full loop, single step, resume, and status-only modes.
6refinery
Convergence loop that iteratively improves work until quality thresholds are met. Scores, diagnoses specific weaknesses, rewrites, re-scores, and repeats until all dimensions reach 8/10 or diminishing returns are detected. Use when you want to refine or iterate on work, after the analyst gives a REVISE verdict, or when output quality is below your bar. Part of the architect-system loop. Outputs to system/refinery-log.md.
3compounder
Weekly review partner that compounds productivity gains over time. Tracks velocity, logs friction, sets next-week targets, recognizes patterns across weeks, and feeds insights back to the audit for the next loop. Use when you want a weekly review, need to identify friction, want to see patterns, or want to update your system map. Part of the architect-system loop. Outputs to system/compounder/week-{date}.md.
3audit
Productivity analyst that maps your workflow, scores tasks by time cost and energy drain, and builds a prioritized 4-week automation plan. Use when you want to audit your workflow, figure out what to automate, do a productivity review, identify high-leverage tasks, feel overwhelmed and need to prioritize, or after the compounder surfaces new friction. Part of the architect-system loop. Outputs to system/audit-report.md.
