| Criterion |  Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) |  Agile Three Amigos |
|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification. | When story, test, and implementation could drift apart, it brings business perspective, engineering, and quality together early. It prevents a story from being read differently only late in the process. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Low |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 15-30 min |
Participantsdifferent | Designers, developers as users, and facilitation | 3 |
Formatsame | Workshop + async | Workshop + async |
Outputdifferent | Prioritized development tasks, Jointly produced code or pseudocode, Observed difficulties and open design questions, Proposed design revisions | Clarified Story, Test Examples, Open Questions |
