# Architecture Review

> Validates completeness and consistency of the project architecture against all GDDs. Builds a traceability matrix mapping every GDD technical requirement to ADRs, identifies coverage gaps, detects cross-ADR conflicts, verifies engine compatibility consistency across all decisions, and produces a PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL verdict. The architecture equivalent of $ai-game-studio:design-review.

# Architecture Review

This is a full-fidelity Codex port of a large upstream studio workflow. Its
detailed phases, templates, checks, and handoff prompts live in
[`references/full-workflow.md`](references/full-workflow.md) to keep skill
discovery lightweight.

## Required procedure

1. Read `references/full-workflow.md` completely before executing this skill.
2. Follow its phases in order and preserve all approval, review, testing, and
   evidence gates.
3. Adapt shell syntax to the detected platform; use PowerShell on Windows and
   POSIX syntax on macOS/Linux.
4. Inherit the active Codex model and permission mode. Never weaken sandbox,
   approval, provenance, or human creative-control boundaries.
5. If a referenced project artifact is absent, report the gap and use the
   documented fallback instead of inventing completion evidence.
