Architecture Drift Detection
Principle
The source is the primary truth.
The stored reverse-engineering baseline may become stale.
Compare
Check high-value baseline claims against current source:
- inbound interfaces
- client implementations
- selectors/factories
- configuration
- target/model/mode branches
- integrations
- protocol boundaries
- retry/fallback
- error mappings
Drift Matrix
| Baseline Claim | Current Source | Status | Severity | Evidence | Baseline Update Needed |
|---|
Status:
- NO DRIFT
- EXPECTED DRIFT
- UNDOCUMENTED DRIFT
- BASELINE ERROR
- UNKNOWN

Do not automatically rewrite baseline. Report drift first for review.
