-
-## Architecture Highlights
-
-### Design Patterns Used
-
-1. **Class-Based State Management**
-   - Single Orchestrator class encapsulates all state
-   - Methods provide controlled state transitions
-   - Immutable snapshots prevent external mutation
-
-2. **Phase Machine Pattern**
-   - Explicit phase transitions (loop3 → loop2 → product-owner → complete)
-   - No implicit state changes
-   - Enforced via type system
-
-3. **Mode Strategy Pattern**
-   - MODE_CONFIG map for different thresholds
-   - Easy to extend with new modes
-   - No conditional branching in core logic
-
-4. **Agent Registration Pattern**
-   - Agents tracked by ID in Sets
-   - Efficient completion/failure marking
-   - Clear audit trail
-
-5. **Result Aggregation Pattern**
-   - Test results and consensus scores collected separately
-   - Aggregation on demand via dedicated methods
-   - No eager computation
-
-### Key Design Decisions
-
-1. **Synchronous Core Operations**
-   - State transitions, validations, and checks are synchronous
-   - Agent spawning is async (respects I/O)
-   - Consistent API semantics
-
-2. **No Hidden State**
-   - All state changes explicit via method calls
-   - No implicit transitions or side effects
-   - Clear audit trail
-
-3. **Immutable State Snapshots**
-   - `getState()` returns shallow copy
-   - Prevents external mutation
-   - Enables safe concurrent reads
-
-4. **Mode-Specific Configuration**
-   - Thresholds defined per mode
-   - Easy to adjust for future requirements
-   - All modes documented
-
-5. **Type-Safe Enums**
-   - ExecutionMode, LoopPhase, ProductOwnerDecision
-   - Exhaustiveness checking
-   - No string literals in type system
-
-## Integration Instructions
-
-### 1. Import and Instantiate
-```typescript
-import { Orchestrator } from './.claude/skills/cfn-loop-orchestration/src/orchestrate';
-
-const orchestrator = new Orchestrator({
-  taskId: 'feature-id',
-  mode: 'standard',
-  maxIterations: 10,
-});
-```
-
-### 2. Phase Management
-```typescript
-orchestrator.transitionPhase('loop3');  // Start Loop 3
-// ... execute agents ...
-orchestrator.transitionPhase('loop2');  // Move to Loop 2
-// ... validate ...
-orchestrator.transitionPhase('product-owner');  // Final decision
-```
-
-### 3. Agent Handling
-```typescript
-const agents = await orchestrator.spawnLoop3Agents(['backend-dev', 'frontend-dev']);
-// ... execute agents ...
-orchestrator.recordTestResult('backend-dev-1-1', { pass: 95, fail: 5 });
-orchestrator.markAgentComplete('backend-dev-1-1', 'loop3');
-```
-
-### 4. Gate Check
-```typescript
-const aggregated = orchestrator.aggregateTestResults();
-const gateResult = orchestrator.checkGate(aggregated.passRate);
-if (!gateResult.passed) {
-  orchestrator.recordDecision('ITERATE');
-  orchestrator.incrementIteration();
-}
-```
-
-### 5. Consensus Validation
-```typescript
-orchestrator.recordConsensusScore('validator-1-1', 0.92);
-orchestrator.recordConsensusScore('validator-2-1', 0.91);
-const consensus = orchestrator.validateConsensus();
-if (!consensus.passed) {
-  orchestrator.recordDecision('ITERATE');
-}
-```
-
-### 6. Decision Recording
-```typescript
-orchestrator.recordDecision('PROCEED');
-// or parse from output
-const decision = orchestrator.parseDecisionFromOutput(agentOutput);
-orchestrator.recordDecision(decision);
-```
-
-## Backward Compatibility
-
-### Bash Wrapper Available
-```bash
-./helpers/orchestrate-ts.sh \
-  --task-id feature-id \
-  --mode standard \
-  --max-iterations 10
-```
-
-### Existing Integration Preserved
-- gate-check helper: Compatible ✓
-- consensus helper: Compatible ✓
-- agent spawning: Ready for integration ✓
-- redis coordination: Optional integration ✓
-
-## Testing & Validation
-
-### Pre-Deployment Checks
-```bash
-# Type check
-npm run type-check              # ✅ PASSED
-
-# Build
-npm run build                   # ✅ PASSED
-
-# Test suite
-npm test                        # ✅ 206/206 PASSED (72 new)
-
-# Format check
-npm run format:check            # ⚠️ Pre-existing ESLint config missing
-```
-
-### Production Readiness

-- [x] Comprehensive tests (72/72 passing)
-- [x] Integration tests (happy path + edge cases)
-- [x] Error handling (all error scenarios)
-- [x] Documentation complete
-- [x] Code review ready
-- [x] Performance acceptable (no bottlenecks)
-- [x] Security validated (input sanitization)
-
-## Performance Characteristics
-
-### Operational Complexity
-```
-Initialization:              O(1)
-State transitions:           O(1)
-Test result aggregation:     O(n) - n = agent count
-Consensus calculation:       O(n) - n = validator count
-Gate check:                  O(1)
-Consensus validation:        O(1)
-```
-
-### Memory Usage
-```
-Base overhead:           ~1 KB
-Per agent:              ~100 bytes
-Per validator score:    ~100 bytes
-Per test result:        ~200 bytes
-Total for 10 agents:    ~2 KB additional
-```
-
-### No Bottlenecks
-- All operations sub-millisecond
-- Linear scaling with agent count
-- No blocking operations in core logic
-- Async agent spawning doesn't block state

+- Eliminates duplication (thin wrapper scripts)
+- Fixes known path resolution bugs (iteration-manager.sh, consensus.sh)
+- Consolidates logic in tested TypeScript modules
+
+**Maintenance:**
+- Single source of truth per function
+- Type safety via TypeScript
+- Comprehensive test coverage (114 tests)
+- Better IDE support and refactoring
+
+**Performance:**
+- Removes shell script overhead
+- Direct Node.js execution
+- Faster type checking
+
+### Files Still Using TypeScript Equivalents
+
+- `dist/helpers/parse-test-results.js` (compiled from TS)
+- `dist/helpers/gate-check.js` (compiled from TS)
+- `dist/helpers/iteration-manager.js` (compiled from TS)
+- `dist/helpers/consensus.js` (compiled from TS)
+- `dist/helpers/deliverable-verifier.js` (compiled from TS)
+- `dist/helpers/timeout-calculator.js` (compiled from TS)
+
+### Migration Path for Consumers
+
+If any external code referenced these shell scripts:
+1. Use compiled TypeScript via `dist/helpers/` instead
+2. Or call TypeScript source directly via `node` CLI
+3. See `SKILL.md` for TypeScript CLI documentation
+
+### Historical Notes
+
+**Wrapper Scripts (Deprecated):**
+- `helpers/*-ts.sh` - TypeScript wrapper scripts (still present as fallback)
+- Example: `helpers/consensus-ts.sh` → calls `dist/helpers/consensus.js`
+
+These may be removed in a future cleanup once all callers migrate fully to TypeScript.
