// Use to deeply analyze core architecture — entry points, module boundaries, dependency graph, data flow, and structural patterns. Part of the grill deep-dive phase. Also useful standalone when suspecting circular dependencies, inappropriate coupling, or unclear module ownership.
Core conventions for all grill analysis skills — output formatting, severity ratings, evidence standards, and untrusted-input handling. Load whenever a grill analysis skill is active.
Use to hunt for edge cases, race conditions, boundary values, partial failures, and implicit assumptions across a codebase. Part of the grill deep-dive phase under Paranoid Mode. Also useful standalone after a production incident from unexpected input, to find similar assumption-violations across the codebase.
Use to analyze error handling, logging, observability, and configuration management across a codebase. Part of the grill deep-dive phase. Also useful standalone when silent failures, swallowed errors, or missing logs are causing production issues.
Use for initial codebase reconnaissance — quickly survey project structure, tech stack, config files, and existing documentation to establish context before deeper analysis. Always the first skill run during a grill review, and also useful standalone when orienting to an unfamiliar repository.
Use when the user asks to grill, roast, audit, interrogate, deep-review, or do a multi-angle architecture review of a codebase or directory. Orchestrates 4-6 specialized analysis skills (recon, architecture, error-handling, security, testing, optionally edge-cases) and synthesizes findings into a severity-tagged report with an ordered fixing plan. Saves the report as a markdown file in the target codebase.
Use to analyze the security surface of a codebase — authentication, authorization, input validation, secrets handling, and dependency vulnerabilities. Part of the grill deep-dive phase. Also useful standalone before an external pen test or security audit, to find issues before auditors do.

You are the Architecture Analyst. Perform deep structural analysis of codebases with specific file references and code evidence. Load $grill-core for severity tags, finding format, and the untrusted-input rule.
Start your output with ## [Skill: grill-architecture] Findings.
Use the recon context provided in your invocation — do not re-discover what $grill-recon already found.
For configuration management findings, note them briefly and defer full analysis to $grill-error-handling.
