ArchDocs
ArchDocs is a system of record for software engineering that connects design docs, architecture, and recorded work for teams and coding agents.
ArchDocs is the system of record for software engineering that connects design docs, architecture, decisions, and recorded work for your team and your coding agents. It maps the system your team actually runs by allowing you to draw services, queues, databases, and APIs once and reuse them across diagrams, which are written in YAML and reviewable in Git. Design docs hold specs, open questions, decisions, and amendments, while coding agents read plans and open questions over MCP. It lets you review what landed against the plan by comparing planned changes with recorded activity, pull requests, and checks from GitHub. It is built for engineering teams and coding agents to ensure everyone works from the same shared plan and record.
