Urban Design Skills uses a **progressive disclosure architecture** to stay lean while encoding deep knowledge:

User asks anything about urban design
        |
        v
urban-design-foundations (auto-fires, invisible to user)
  - Applies baseline knowledge from 40+ frameworks
  - Routes to specialized skills as needed
        |
        v
