17 starsApache-2.0 (commercial OK)FreeQuick setup
Fair rating — This tool is functional but has notable gaps. Review the evaluation notes below before deploying.

Architecture drift between documentation and code is a persistent enterprise pain point — automated AI-maintained architecture-as-code directly addresses the 'docs always out of date' problem.

Software architects and engineering leads on large or rapidly evolving codebases who need accurate architecture documentation alongside AI-assisted development.

16 stars, Apache 2.0 license, Rust CLI, Codecov CI. Novel concept addressing a real enterprise problem. Early stage (16 stars) — production reliability unproven. The .sruja DSL is proprietary creating lock-in concerns. Tier-3 experimental.

Apache 2.0 license. Install via curl | bash from sruja.ai (not GitHub directly — minor concern). Rust binary from GitHub releases. sruja-ai org is new with limited track record. SKILL.md component has no credential handling.
