Where Code Converges, Architecture Remains Unsolved

Code quality is now mechanically solvable through deterministic gates and automated tooling, but architectural correctness remains an unsolved design problem that cannot be gated. As AI agents accelerate code production beyond human speed, strict convergence mechanisms become critical to prevent quality decay under increased volume. The real challenge of modern software development has shifted from writing code to designing systems that stay maintainable when machines generate it orders of magnitude faster.
