- README.md: new 'Primitives' section between Cross-tool bridges and Meta-composer. Explains _primitives/ vs _blocks/, lists tomd, names the PreToolUse(Read) hook, notes /compose-solution auto-discovery - phase-3-prior-art.md: extend grep target list to include _primitives/ - phase-5-architecture.md: one-paragraph note on referencing tomd primitive instead of rolling custom binary-format parsing (reuse over rewrite) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Phase 5 — Architecture proposal (math-first)
Compose the architecture by following _blocks/rule-math-first.md.
5a — Expression first
One to three lines describing which primitives combine, in which order, with which invariants. Use this shape:
artefact = compose(block_A, block_B, ..., block_N)
where block_* ∈ {_blocks/, newly drafted, skills/, _manifests/}
invariant: <one-line, e.g. "every cube <200 LOC, every handoff verified">
If the architecture requires parsing binary document formats (PDF / DOCX /
XLSX / PPTX / CSV), reference the tomd primitive
(_primitives/tomd.sh) instead of rolling custom parsing — RULE "reuse
over rewrite". The PreToolUse(Read) hook tomd-preread.sh already redirects
Claude to the converted markdown transparently.
5b — What is UNNECESSARY?
For each block listed, justify why it's in. If a block can be removed
without losing the user's goal — remove it. Derive-first: explicit claim
"this is the minimal decomposition, nothing removable". Follow the checklist
from _blocks/rule-math-first.md:
- Learned parameters / free knobs? WHY? Determined by input?
- Separate blocks for similar concerns? WHY? Can a single block cover both?
- Gate / wrapper layers? WHY? Is a direct reference enough?
5c — Constructor Pattern check
Each output cube must be single-concern, file < 200 LOC, function < 30 LOC. If the proposed assembly violates this, split before proceeding.
5d — Count
Show the numbers explicitly in the preview:
- New files: N
- Edits to existing files: M
- Total lines of markdown to be written: L
5e — Preview + confirm
Preview as plain text in chat, then:
{
"questions": [
{
"question": "Architecture OK?",
"header": "Architecture",
"multiSelect": false,
"options": [
{"label": "Confirm", "description": "Proceed to Phase 6 block augmentation (if any gaps) then Phase 7 assembly"},
{"label": "Revise component N", "description": "One component's decomposition or reuse choice is wrong — reply with one free-text line"},
{"label": "Remove something", "description": "You see a block that's not strictly necessary — reply which one"},
{"label": "Abort", "description": "Stop — nothing gets written"}
]
}
]
}
On Revise / Remove → ONE free-text prompt, regenerate the architecture,
re-preview.
Verify-criterion
- User clicked Confirm.
- The expression (5a) is present and < 3 lines.
- The "what is unnecessary" pass (5b) has been applied and is visible in the preview.
- Constructor Pattern check (5c) passed.
