Architecture Fitness
AlphaEvaluate architecture once, then run Complexity Index and Over-Architecture Detection without re-entering the same inputs.

Risk Tier
Key Findings
- Integration load and deployment volatility are the top two complexity drivers at this profile — governance maturity of 3 provides moderate relief.
- Over-architecture score of 44 indicates moderate mismatch between design complexity and team readiness at current scale.
- Technical debt multiplier of 1.82x means architecture decisions carry compounding cost — refactor planning should begin in the next planning cycle.
Priority-tier refactor needed. Address integration sprawl first — consolidating point-to-point paths will reduce complexity score by an estimated 12–15 points before touching any other driver.
