What happens if I don't have an ops/derivation.md file?

Architect will still function using universal defaults and current state analysis, though it will warn you that historical design intent context is missing.

Does the Architect skill modify my files automatically?

No. Architect follows a strict invariant: it never auto-implements. Every recommendation requires explicit user approval before any files are modified.

What evidence does the Architect use for recommendations?

It combines three evidence streams: health data (e.g., orphan notes, broken links), friction patterns (recurring issues in logs), and specific research claims to justify changes.

What is the 25% meta-work budget?

It is a guiding philosophy that limits system evolution tasks to 15 minutes of a 60-minute session, ensuring the system serves the work rather than becoming the work itself.

생산성 및 워크플로

Analyzes system health and friction patterns to provide research-justified evolution advice for your knowledge and development environments.

The Architect skill acts as a governance and evolution layer for your Claude-managed environments. It synthesizes evidence from three distinct streams—system health reports, operational friction patterns, and historical derivation records—to identify structural drift and inefficiency. Unlike standard automation tools, Architect grounds every recommendation in research-backed claims, ensuring that changes to your schema, MOC structure, or processing pipelines are logical and purposeful. By enforcing a strict 'no auto-implement' policy, it keeps the user in the judgment loop while maintaining system coherence over time.
