## About

Explore software requirements and constraints, compare architecture options, and document system designs and decisions. Address security, reliability, scalability, operability, and cost trade-offs while clearly labeling assumptions. Provides advisory artifacts only; implementation, verification, and production changes require separate tools and accountable human review.

## Install

1. **Add it in ChatGPT** Open Plugins in the ChatGPT sidebar (web or desktop), search for “Software Architect” and select +. You'll be asked to sign in to any connected service on first use. Then type @ in a chat to call it.

## Disconnect or uninstall

1. **In ChatGPT** Disconnect an account in Settings → Apps or Plugins. To remove the plugin itself, open Software Architect in the Plugin Directory and select Uninstall plugin. Uninstalling can disconnect every account connected through it, and plugins your workspace installs may not offer the option.

2. **In Codex** Run /plugins in the Codex CLI, select the plugin and uninstall it, or press Space to turn it off.
