Architecture Review

The architecture review validates that the complete body of architectural decisions covers all game design requirements, is internally consistent, and correctly targets the project's pinned engine version. It is the quality gate between Technical Setup and Pre-Production.

Argument modes:

• No argument / full: Full review — all phases
• coverage: Traceability only — which GDD requirements have no ADR
• consistency: Cross-ADR conflict detection only
• engine: Engine compatibility audit only
• single-gdd [path]: Review architecture coverage for one specific GDD
• rtm: Requirements Traceability Matrix — extends the standard matrix to include story file paths and test file paths; outputs docs/architecture/requirements-traceability.md with the full GDD requirement → ADR → Story → Test chain. Use in Production phase when stories and tests exist.

Every AskUserQuestion call follows .claude/docs/automation-modes.md (collaborative asks always · guided major-only · autonomous logs and proceeds; automation_always_ask categories always prompt).

workflow (see .claude/docs/workflow-modes.md):

• full — full traceability matrix across all GDDs and all ADRs.
• standard — reduced scope: architecture doc + critical ADRs only.
• minimal — not applicable (no architecture doc required).

Phase 1: Load Everything

Read references/1-load.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 2: Extract Technical Requirements from Every GDD

Read references/2-extract-requirements.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 3: Build the Traceability Matrix

Read references/3-traceability.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 4: Cross-ADR Conflict Detection

Read references/4-conflicts.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 5: Engine Compatibility Cross-Check

Read references/5-engine.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 6: Architecture Document Coverage

Read references/6-document-coverage.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 7: Output the Review Report

Read references/7-report.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 8: Write and Update Traceability Index

Read references/8-write.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Phase 9: Handoff

Read references/9-handoff.md now and follow it — this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

Error Recovery Protocol

First, verify the artifact. If the return contract named a path, check the path exists before treating the phase as done — a named artifact that is not on disk is a failed phase, however fluent the response reads. An agent can burn a full phase and return a plausible preamble having written nothing, which is neither BLOCKED nor an error nor "fails to complete", so the trigger below never fires. Resume it naming the unmet contract; the context is usually still there.

If any spawned agent returns BLOCKED, errors, or fails to complete: surface it immediately, don't proceed past a dependency it blocks, and always produce a partial report (retry scope here = fewer GDDs / single-system). Full procedure: .claude/docs/error-recovery-protocol.md.

Collaborative Protocol

Applies in collaborative mode (the default). For guided and autonomous modes, see .claude/docs/automation-modes.md — the rules below describe what collaborative mode requires, not universal behavior.

1. Read silently — do not narrate every file read
2. Show the matrix — present the full traceability matrix before any write approval; let the user see the state
3. Don't guess — if a requirement is ambiguous, ask: "Is [X] a technical requirement or a design preference?"
4. Draft before approval — always show the content that will be written (the report, the updated ADR section, the systems-index row) inline in the conversation before requesting approval. Never ask to write something the user has not yet seen.
5. Use AskUserQuestion for write approvals — plain text "May I?" is not sufficient. Use the structured tool with labeled options [A]/[B]/[C] so the user can choose between "write now", "show full draft first", and "not yet". Multi-file changesets must list every file and what changes, then ask once with grouped options — not a separate plain-text question per file.
6. Non-blocking — the verdict is advisory; the user decides whether to continue despite CONCERNS or even FAIL findings
