The component anatomy, 90° to the left
summary
Component Anatomy turns a screen mockup 90 degrees and asks for a sketch of three layers (UI, Data, Business), then draws actual data flows — four kinds: display, event, request, response — to spot coupling and Structure and Data flows intersections and force closed circuits. It produces a fabrication plan, proposes a VS Code plugin and a GitHub symbol set, and claims concrete gains: one team member reports cut coding time from one hour to ten minutes. Experimental but reported to improve parallelization and bug detection.
