Architecture Documentation¶

Overview¶

This section provides comprehensive architectural documentation for the Records Manager Skill, including system design, workflow patterns, and component relationships.

Architecture Documentation Structure¶

Core Architecture¶

• System Architecture - High-level system architecture and component interactions
• Three-Layer Architecture - Detailed explanation of the Intent, Expertise, and Execution layers
• Upload Workflow - Document upload process and workflow
• Retention Lifecycle - Document lifecycle management and retention rules

Extended Architecture¶

• Taxonomy Inheritance - How taxonomies are structured and extended
• Agent Collaboration - Agent workflows and handoffs
• Deletion Safety - Safe document deletion process
• Trust Document Relationships - Trust document management structure

Key Design Principles¶

The Records Manager Skill follows a three-layer architecture that ensures:

1. Separation of Concerns: Clear boundaries between intent recognition, domain expertise, and execution

2. Safety-First Design: Mandatory checkpoints for destructive operations

3. Extensibility: Modular components that can be easily extended or replaced

4. Compliance: Built-in support for country-specific retention requirements

5. Auditability: Complete tracking of all document operations and state changes

Mermaid Diagrams¶

All architecture diagrams use Mermaid syntax for easy rendering in MkDocs and GitHub Pages. Each diagram provides a visual representation of:

• Component relationships and data flow
• State transitions and lifecycle management
• Decision points and approval workflows
• Entity relationships and data structures
