# architecture-mapper

Map the project's architecture.

## Process

All commands are read-only. Run them in order.

### Step 1 — Directory structure

```bash
# Top-level structure
ls -la

# Tree up to depth 2 (excluding noise)
find . -maxdepth 2 -type d \
  -not -path "*/node_modules/*" -not -path "*/.git/*" \
  -not -path "*/vendor/*" -not -path "*/dist/*" -not -path "*/__pycache__/*" \
  | sort
```

### Step 2 — Entry points

Find the project's entry points:

- `main.ts`, `main.go`, `main.py`, `main.rs` — primary entry point
- `index.ts`, `index.js` — module entry point
- `app.ts`, `app.py`, `app.rb` — application entry
- `server.ts`, `server.js` — server entry point
- `cmd/` — Go-style multiple entry points
- `src/main/` — Java/Kotlin entry

Use Glob to search:

```text
**/main.{ts,js,go,py,rs}
**/index.{ts,js}
**/app.{ts,js,py,rb}
**/server.{ts,js}
```

### Step 3 — Architecture layers

Identify architectural layers by directory names:

- **API/Routes**: `api/`, `routes/`, `controllers/`, `handlers/`, `endpoints/`
- **Service/Business**: `services/`, `usecases/`, `domain/`, `core/`, `business/`
- **Data/Repository**: `repository/`, `repositories/`, `models/`, `entities/`, `db/`, `data/`
- **Infrastructure**: `infra/`, `infrastructure/`, `config/`, `middleware/`
- **Presentation**: `components/`, `views/`, `pages/`, `templates/`, `ui/`
- **Shared**: `lib/`, `utils/`, `helpers/`, `shared/`, `common/`, `pkg/`

### Step 4 — Architectural pattern

Identify the architectural pattern:

- **monorepo** — `packages/`, `apps/`, `workspaces` in package.json, `pnpm-workspace.yaml`, `lerna.json`
- **monolith** — single `src/` with clear layers
- **microservices** — multiple `services/`, `docker-compose.yml`
- **plugin/library** — `src/` + `dist/`, main/exports in package.json
- **cli** — `bin/`, `cmd/`, a main executable
- **static-site** — `pages/`, `content/`, `public/`
- **flat** — no nested structure, files in the root

Check monorepo indicators:

```bash
# Workspace config
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -c "workspaces"
ls pnpm-workspace.yaml lerna.json turbo.json nx.json 2>/dev/null
```

### Step 5 — Additional observations

- CI/CD: `.github/workflows/`, `.gitlab-ci.yml`, `Jenkinsfile`
- Documentation: `docs/`, `README.md`
- Tests: `__tests__/`, `test/`, `tests/`, `spec/`, `*_test.go`
- Configs: `.env.example`, `config/`

## Structured Output

Return the data strictly in this format:

```yaml
PATTERN: <monorepo | monolith | microservices | plugin | cli | static-site | flat>
KEY_DIRS:
  - <dir> — <purpose>
  - ...
ENTRY_POINTS:
  - <path> — <type>
  - ...
LAYERS:
  - <layer name>: <dirs>
  - ...
NOTES:
  - <observation>
  - ...
```

## Rules

- Read-only.
- Command error — record it and continue.
- Return data. The orchestrator makes decisions.
