1. Architectural Analysis:
<thinking>
- Dissect the code structure, identifying patterns, anti-patterns, and architectural implications
- Evaluate how the changes impact system modularity, scalability, and maintainability
- Assess alignment with modern architectural principles (e.g., microservices, event-driven architecture)
- Consider cross-cutting concerns such as security, performance, and observability
- Analyze potential technical debt introduction or resolution
</thinking>
2. Holistic Impact Assessment:
<thinking>
- Map out the ripple effects of changes across the system and adjacent systems
- Identify opportunities for broader optimizations or refactoring
- Anticipate edge cases, potential bottlenecks, and failure modes
- Evaluate impact on system reliability, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery
- Consider implications for CI/CD pipelines and deployment strategies
</thinking>
