Fold Matt Pocock’s /codebase-design vocabulary and /improve-codebase-architecture survey shape into Loadpath’s graph — not as agent skills, as review feedback.

Rebased onto main after the graph-inspector overflow fix. Packaged UI static is rebuilt so the Depth section actually ships.

Why this shape

Those skills are a reference (deep modules) plus a survey (ranked deepening candidates). Loadpath already has the survey surface: the architecture graph. Review already scopes architecture findings to a git range. The fit is:

  • Architecture tab = the survey (repo-wide deepening opportunities)
  • Review tab / PR comment = the same candidates, scoped to the change
  • Residual AI = uses the glossary so leftover uncertainty is described as seams and locality, not “components” and “APIs”

What landed

Two new default rules (warning, waivable):

  • leaked_seam — a view queries a model past a query module that already exists in the same context. Names the services module (or a service that already queries that model), not an arbitrary unused function.
  • tests_bypass_interface — tests hit serializer/view internals while the published route/page seam is untested

Each finding carries a deletion test, leverage/locality notes, and a before→after line. N+1 hits are also promoted into the deepening list.

The brief grows a Depth: line. Architecture CLI, markdown, MCP compact payloads, and the UI Depth section show ranked cards (strong / worth exploring / speculative) with a top recommendation.

Verification

  • Full unit pytest
  • ui vitest + production static rebuild
  • Demo fixture: InvoiceViewSet leaks the Invoice queryset past services; serializer tests miss the published invoice route seam

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds two architecture rules for leaked seams and interface-bypassing tests. It ranks findings as deepening opportunities and exposes them through architecture reports, reviews, Markdown, MCP, CLI, prompts, and the web UI.

Changes

Architecture depth analysis

Layer / File(s) Summary
Depth rules and finding analysis
src/loadpath/architecture/depth.py, src/loadpath/architecture/rules.py, src/loadpath/config.py, fixtures/demo_monorepo/loadpath.yml, loadpath.yml.example, tests/unit/test_depth.py
The architecture evaluator detects leaked query seams and tests that bypass published interfaces. It converts findings into ranked recommendation cards with deletion-test and locality metadata.
Depth documentation and validation
README.md, tests/unit/test_depth.py
Documentation describes depth, seam, leverage, locality, and deletion-test concepts. Tests validate detection, ranking, and review scoping.
Architecture snapshot and command output
src/loadpath/architecture/snapshot.py, src/loadpath/cli.py, tests/e2e/test_index_architecture_flow.py
Architecture snapshots include deepening candidates. The CLI reports their count and top candidate.
Review depth and generated output
src/loadpath/review/engine.py, src/loadpath/review/render.py, src/loadpath/mcp/compact.py, src/loadpath/ai/providers.py, tests/unit/test_ai.py
Review payloads include depth notes and deepening cards. Markdown, MCP responses, and residual prompts expose the new data.
Deepening data and interface rendering
ui/src/types.ts, ui/src/format.ts, ui/src/App.tsx, ui/src/styles.css, ui/src/format.test.ts, src/loadpath/static/*
The UI defines deepening candidate types and renders expandable candidate details with strength chips, deletion tests, and before/after values.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f56bc

The PR adds architecture-depth findings and exposes them through review, CLI, and UI output, but the current implementation can attribute a seam to the wrong service and can omit promised depth details in some output paths. These issues can mislead users about architecture findings, so the PR is not fully merge-ready until the fallback and output handling are corrected.

Service functions do not get queries_model edges, so picking peers[0]
recommended unrelated mutators. Prefer a service that already queries the
same model; otherwise name the services.py module as the seam. Rebuild the
packaged UI so the Depth section ships.

Restrict the fallback to an actual query module.

When no peer queries this model, Line 183 selects the first peer service file without checking its name or query behavior. A service in notifications.py can then produce a leaked_seam finding that claims notifications is the query-module seam.

Use a relevant peer that queries the model. Otherwise, only fall back to services.py. Do not emit this finding when neither exists. The commit summary specifies a relevant service or services.py; this fallback can select neither.

architecture_report returns deepening: [] for valid indexed reports without candidates. This branch prints no Depth: line in that case, although the architecture output contract includes that line. Print a zero-count line in an else branch.

Render leverage and locality in each deepening card.

DeepeningCandidate exposes these fields, but both user-facing renderers discard them. This loses architecture guidance that the PR adds.
