import-architecture

Read .arch/state.json first.

GATE CHECK:

• If current_phase is not not_started, STOP: "Cannot import architecture. Current phase is [phase]. Import is only available at the start of a new project. Use /status to check progress."
• If .arch/existing-architecture.md does not exist, STOP: "No import document found. Run arch-agent import <source-file> from CLI first, then use this command."

Read .arch/existing-architecture.md — this is the existing architecture document to import. Read .arch/org-context.md to check if organizational context is available.

Import Mode — Fast-Track Review

You are importing an existing architecture document. Your job is to:

1. Parse the document into architecture sections
2. Present each section for review, applying your adversarial reviewer standards
3. Progress through all phases using the normal state machine
4. Challenge — flag gaps, outdated decisions, missing NFRs, and anti-patterns

The user can /accept phases they're happy with quickly, or /refine phases that need updates.

Step 1: Parse the Document

Analyze the imported document and identify these sections (some may be missing):

• Requirements / PRD content — functional requirements, NFRs, constraints, assumptions
• Architecture pattern — monolith, microservices, event-driven, etc.
• Component map — system components and their boundaries
• Cross-cutting decisions — auth, observability, deployment, error handling, data management
• Component designs — detailed designs for individual components

If sections are missing, note them — you'll flag these as gaps in the appropriate phase.

Step 2: Phase 1 — Evaluate as PRD Analysis

Present the extracted requirements as a Phase 1 evaluation:

• Extract functional requirements (FR-001, FR-002...) from the document
• Extract or infer non-functional requirements
• Identify gaps — what's missing from the existing design?
• Rate risks and overall design completeness
• Be adversarial: "Your existing document says [X], but doesn't address [Y]. What happens when [Z]?"
