# Engineering Review

Implementation-ready before it reaches engineering

## How it works

1. ### Share the prototype  
   Point the agent at a prototype along with your codebase context. It understands your existing architecture and tech stack.

2. ### Evaluate feasibility  
   The agent assesses implementation complexity, identifies reusable components, flags state management challenges, and estimates engineering effort.

3. ### Get an implementation brief  
   Receive a structured review covering architecture recommendations, component mapping, risk areas, and a suggested implementation approach.

## Why use Engineering Review

### No feasibility surprises
   Catch "this would take 3 months, not 3 days" issues before they derail the project.

### Component reuse
   Identifies existing components and patterns in your codebase that can be reused, reducing implementation effort.

### Better handoff conversations
   Engineering reviews surface the right questions early, making design-engineering handoff conversations productive.

### Architecture alignment
   Ensures the proposed design works within your existing architecture rather than requiring unexpected refactors.

## When to use Engineering Review

### Pre-handoff feasibility check
   You want to validate that a design is buildable before presenting it as the approved direction.
   Review this dashboard prototype against our React codebase. What can reuse existing components and what needs to be built from scratch?

### Complexity estimation
   You need to understand the engineering effort before committing to a design direction.
   Evaluate the implementation complexity of these two design options and tell me which one is significantly cheaper to build.

### State management review
   The design involves complex interactions and you want to ensure the state management is well thought through.
   Review the state management implications of this multi-step wizard prototype. Where are the tricky parts?
