Fighting Context Drift

SMRTR summary

Trepan is a local-first architectural linter that prevents "Architecture Drift" by acting as a skeptical AI partner. The tool runs entirely on local hardware using Llama 3.1 through Ollama, ensuring zero cloud data leakage while enforcing coding standards through six core documents that define project blueprints, security rules, and development history. Trepan automatically audits every file save against established architectural principles, rejecting code that violates predefined standards and logging all decisions for accountability.
