Architecture Code Review

Run an architecture-focused review using 4 architecture checklists via the senior-review-specialist agent.

Instructions

Spawn the senior-review-specialist agent to perform this review.

Checklists to Apply

Load and apply these review checklists:

  • commands/review/architecture.md - Boundaries, dependencies, layering
  • commands/review/performance.md - Algorithmic efficiency, N+1 queries, bottlenecks
  • commands/review/scalability.md - Load handling, dataset growth, multi-tenancy
  • commands/review/api-contracts.md - Stability, correctness, consumer usability

Agent Instructions

The agent should:

  1. Get working tree changes: Run git diff to see all changes
  2. Map the architecture:
    • Identify architectural layers (presentation, service, domain, infra)
    • Identify dependency direction
    • Identify coupling points
  3. For each changed file:
    • Read the full file content
    • Go through each diff hunk
    • Apply all 4 architecture checklists
    • Look for layer violations and circular dependencies
  4. Cross-reference related files: Check import graphs, module boundaries
  5. Assess coupling impact: How many modules are affected?

Output Format

Generate an architecture review report with:

  • Critical Issues (BLOCKER): Circular dependencies, boundary violations
  • High Priority Issues: God objects, coupling problems
  • Medium Priority Issues: Missing abstractions, low cohesion
  • Architectural Map: Layers, boundaries, dependency direction
  • Coupling Metrics: Fan-in, fan-out, affected modules
  • File Summary: Architecture issues per file
  • Overall Assessment: Architecture health recommendation
