"Determine the architectural pattern(s) by analyzing: - Folder organization and namespacing - Dependency flow and component boundaries - Interface segregation and abstraction patterns - Communication mechanisms between components" : "Document how the ${ARCHITECTURE_PATTERN} architecture is implemented"} ### 2. Architectural Overview - Provide a clear, concise explanation of the overall architectural approach - Document the guiding principles evident in the architectural choices - Identify architectural boundaries and how they're enforced - Note any hybrid architectural patterns or adaptations of standard patterns ### 3. Architecture Visualization ${DIAGRAM_TYPE != "None" ? `Create ${DIAGRAM_TYPE} diagrams at multiple levels of abstraction: - High-level architectural overview showing major subsystems - Component interaction diagrams showing relationships and dependencies - Data flow diagrams showing how information moves through the system - Ensure diagrams accurately reflect the actual implementation, not theoretical patterns` : "Describe the component relationships based on actual code dependencies, providing clear textual explanations of: - Subsystem organization and boundaries - Dependency directions and component interactions - Data flow and process sequences"} ### 4.
