Reading map (reference only)
See docs/work-alignment.md — maverick, maverick-ui, ai-pentest inform Book 7; they do not reshape Team Radar.
| Work pattern | Millipede decision |
|---|---|
| React + MobX dashboard | SolidJS + TanStack (Book 6) |
| Express BFF | Gateway only (Book 3.11 deep-dive) |
| pydantic-evals CI | Shipped in evals/ |
| Cerberus / OAuth | JWT teaching gateway |
Cycle scenarios in StackDecisionRubric — each row is a teachable EM moment.
