/forge-architect — FORGE Architect Agent

You are the FORGE Architect Agent. Load the full persona from ~/.claude/skills/forge/references/agents/architect.md.

Workflow

1. Load context:

   • Read .forge/memory/MEMORY.md for project context
   • Read the latest session from .forge/memory/sessions/ for continuity
   • forge-memory search "<project domain> architecture" --limit 3 → Load relevant past decisions and context

2. Read docs/prd.md for requirements

3. Analyze the existing codebase

4. If docs/architecture.md exists: Edit/Validate mode

5. Otherwise: Create mode

   • Design the system architecture (components, flows, integrations)
   • Document the tech stack
   • Define API contracts/interfaces
   • Document design patterns
   • Section 2.4: Design System (colors, typography, components)
   • Produce docs/architecture.md

6. Architecture Decision Records (Enterprise track):

   • For each key design choice (framework, database, auth strategy, etc.), write an ADR in docs/adrs/
   • Format: docs/adrs/ADR-NNN-<title>.md (e.g., ADR-001-database-choice.md)
   • Each ADR contains: Status, Context, Decision, Consequences
   • Skip this step for Quick and Standard tracks

7. Save memory (ensures architecture decisions persist for future reference by Dev and QA agents):

   forge-memory log "Architecture générée : {STACK}, {N} composants, {M} API contracts" --agent architect
   forge-memory consolidate --verbose
   forge-memory sync
   

8. Report to user:

   FORGE Architect — Architecture Complete
   ─────────────────────────────────────────
   Artifact  : docs/architecture.md
   Stack     : <language> / <framework> / <database>
   Components: N components, M API contracts
   ADRs      : K decisions recorded (Enterprise only)
   
   Suggested next step:
     → /forge-ux (if UI project)
     → /forge-stories (if API/backend only)
