   As an architect, how do you envision me using this?

      (1) right now, i think this is a better tool for the tech lead / senior engineer. they can enter a loop like:

      start brainstorming with their agent -> agent writes code -> agent writes Whiteboard session (connected to the underlying code) for them to iterate on.

      (eliminates the middle plan mode phase)

      (2) i don't think every piece of work fits in that way, so we're working on a "scratchpad" mode your agent can use for planning via versioned artifacts for architecture + behavioral specifications. Then it can update that plan when the implementation is complete! when this feature rolls out I think an "architect" would be using that feature more in collaboration with an engineer.

      (the boundary b/w architect and engineer does seem a bit fuzzy to me, esp. these days, so hopefully we share a similar mental model)
