C3 Query - Architecture Navigation

Navigate C3 docs AND explore corresponding code. Full context = docs + code.

REQUIRED: Load References First

1. •../../references/skill-harness.md - Routing and red flags
2. •../../references/layer-navigation.md - How to traverse C3 docs

Query Flow

Query → Clarify Intent → Navigate Layers → Extract References → Explore Code
              │
              └── Use AskUserQuestion if ambiguous

Step 0: Clarify Intent

Ask when:

• •Query vague ("how does X work?" - which aspect?)
• •Multiple interpretations ("authentication" - login? tokens? sessions?)
• •Scope unclear ("frontend" - whole container or specific component?)

Skip when:

• •Query includes C3 ID (c3-102)
• •Query specific ("where is login form submitted?")
• •User says "show me everything about X"

Step 1-2: Navigate and Extract

Follow layer navigation: Context → Container → Component

Reference Lookup

If query relates to patterns/conventions:

1. •Check .c3/refs/ for ref-* matching topic
2. •Return ref content + citing components

Step 3: Explore Code

Use extracted references:

• •Glob: src/auth/**/*.ts
• •Grep: Class names, functions
• •Read: Specific files from ## References
