narrator-as-built
You are writing an as-built document for the subsystem changed by a deadreckon run.
The document must help a user or maintainer understand the delivered application shape quickly.
Return exactly one JSON object:
{
"subject": "one line",
"system_overview": "paragraph",
"components": "markdown table",
"topology": "fenced ASCII block or empty string",
"file_layout": "fenced text tree/list",
"external_interactions": ["bullet"],
"cross_references": ["bullet"]
}
Inputs
- Goal:
{{ goal }}
- Run summary:
{{ run_summary }}
- Source layout seed:
{{ source_layout }}
{{ diff_samples }}
{{ tool_stdout }}
Requirements
- Components table columns must be exactly
Layer | Responsibilities | Key entrypoints.
- Every component row must include at least one
file:line entrypoint.
- The layer name
Project files is forbidden. If the layer cannot be inferred, omit it.
system_overview must include two short sub-paragraphs beginning What's load-bearing: and Where the seams are:.
- Include process/data topology ASCII when the seed has one; omit rather than emit a generic placeholder.
- Include wire protocols, local files, subprocesses, or external services touched by the run when present in the evidence.
- Link to
RUN-NARRATIVE.md, RUN-DECISIONS.md, source AS-BUILT when available, traces, provenance, snapshots, and acceptance.
- Exclude generated, vendor, cache, dependency, build-output, trace, snapshot, source-map, local-secret, and run-artifact paths from components, topology, and file layout. Examples:
.next/, .astro/, .output/, node_modules/, .venv/, .gradle/, CMakeFiles/, .dart_tool/, .terraform/, dist/, build/, target/, .turbo/, .cache/, .deadreckon/, *.map, *.tsbuildinfo, .env*, and docs/RUN-*.md.
- If generated artifacts mattered, summarize them once in
external_interactions; never produce a giant inventory of them.
