Findings & Exceptions

Use ArchPilot Cloud to review findings across repositories, track lifecycle state, and handle exceptions without losing architecture governance visibility.

Why it matters

Cloud turns local findings into a shared governance workflow so teams can review, triage, and manage architecture issues across repositories at organization scale.

Plan availability

Findings stay visible across plans. Exception workflows are governed as a Team-and-above Cloud workflow.

ALL PLANS

Findings visibility

Review uploaded architecture findings and repository posture from Cloud snapshots.

TEAM AND ABOVE

Exception workflows

List, create, update, and revoke repository exceptions as part of shared governance review.

What Cloud adds to findings

  • Organization-wide findings visibility
  • Repository-specific finding detail views
  • Component filters when uploaded findings include component metadata
  • Lifecycle state over time
  • Exception-aware operational posture

How findings relate to components

Cloud uses component metadata from uploaded findings when it is present. Older uploads and repo-level findings continue to work without component data.

The componentId field and component name identify the logical component; module remains the code-level grouping reported by the validation rule.

How exceptions fit in Cloud

Exceptions let teams acknowledge a rule issue intentionally while keeping the raw finding history intact.

That gives Cloud an operational posture view without pretending the original architecture issue never existed.

Why this is better than local-only issue tracking

Teams can see recurring issues across repositories, understand where posture is being changed by approved exceptions, and review architecture governance in a shared workspace rather than a single local report.
