Position: Hyrax is the Codebase Architect. Competitors review code, scan for issues, or execute tasks. Hyrax architects the system those changes must serve. Nothing in this set argues about who reviews the diff.
Who it speaks to: the champion is a Staff or Principal Engineer who is exhausted from being the architecture police. The economic buyer is a VP Eng or Head of DevEx who rolled out Cursor or Copilot and got more code without better software.
The split is the argument: the Bone half is what the Cursor and Copilot rollout delivered, the Rock half is what it did not. Names the tools the ICP already runs.
Architectural taste should not be spent acting as a linter.
Champion · emotional
Straight at the exhausted Staff Engineer. The doc's own line is that the people with the most architectural taste should not be trapped acting as human linters.
Stale docs, old PR threads, a few senior heads. Connects the missing context model to why coding agents cannot build toward the architecture. Signal appears here and nowhere else in the set.
