Everyone's a software architect now

• A non-engineer built 30,000 lines of working code in a week with AI and asked me how to stop the agents rewriting the same thing every prompt.
• Senior engineers ask the same question about ten-year codebases. The timescale collapsed from years to weeks.
• A much wider group now builds internal tools and single-user apps, like the MS Access wave before the multi-user limits hit.
• For diligence, count how many on the team author process scaffolding against how many ship features.
