    participant U as Ingestion Layer
    participant RC as Rule Context Loader
    participant AW as Architecture Work Generator
    participant AEMG as AEM Generator
    participant AE as Alignment Engine
    participant AID as AID Generator
    participant KL as Knowledge Layer
    participant OI as Operational Intelligence

    U->>RC: Provide context input
    Note over U: Business requirements / Code changes / Conversation

    RC->>RC: Load global rules + project rules
    Note over RC: Governance-aware operational participation boundaries loaded into execution context
    RC-->>KL: Persist rule_context
    Note over KL: rule_context (in-memory / passed downstream)<br/>from knowledge/global/rules/ + knowledge/projects/<project>/rules/

    RC->>AW: Pass context + rule_context

    AW->>AW: Extract architecture_work + operational governance signals from context
    AW-->>KL: Persist architecture_work
    Note over KL: knowledge/projects/<project>/work/aw-*.md

    AW->>AEMG: Provide architecture_work + rule_context

    AEMG->>AEMG: Update AEM
    Note over AEMG: Execution-driven governance evolution and operational participation signals continuously refine architectural state
    AEMG-->>KL: Persist AEM
    Note over KL: knowledge/global/maps/aem-*.md

    AEMG->>AE: Provide updated AEM + rule_context

    AE->>AE: Analyse AEM + ADR + rules + diagrams + operational participation alignment
    AE-->>KL: Persist alignment findings + new architecture_work proposals
    AE->>OI: Emit governance drift + operational intelligence signals
    OI->>OI: Synthesize participation, capability evolution, and governance intelligence
    OI-->>KL: Persist operational intelligence insights
    Note over KL: knowledge/projects/<project>/alignment/alignment-report-*.md

    AE->>AID: Provide updated AEM + findings

    AID->>AID: Align intent with updated AEM
    Note over AID: Architecture intent continuously operationalized through governance-aware participation loops
    AID-->>KL: Persist AID
    Note over KL: knowledge/projects/<project>/intent/architecture-intent-document*.md

    participant GOV as Governance Forum

    AW->>GOV: Submit accepted decisions
    Note over GOV: Governance participation evolves through execution feedback, operational learning, and lightweight refinement
    Note over GOV: Triggers pattern-evolution-flow (ADR, decision lifecycle, pattern sync)
    Note over GOV: See pattern-evolution-flow for decision lifecycle (ADR, governance, pattern sync)

    Note over GOV,KL: Governance Foundation v1 stabilized. Future evolution prioritizes operational experimentation over governance abstraction expansion
    GOV-->>KL: Update ADRs and patterns
    Note over KL: knowledge/global/decisions/ and knowledge/global/patterns/
