"generating architecture diagrams directly from the code - the source of truth." becomes a lot easier when the source code is the architecture.

When you can express the architecture directly in the code using an architectural programming language.

Interesting link you shared there.

Can you link to a real-world example of using Objective-S to specify an architecture?

The "scripts" directory in the repo has a good number of samples.

Note that I wouldn't call it "specifying an architecture", I would call it "programming the system using architecture-appropriate connectors".

For example, a task JSON backend:

https://gitlab.com/mpwmo/ObjectiveSmalltalk/-/blob/master/sc...

First defines a Task (model) class, then a scheme-handler for storing those tasks (in memory), and finally configures + hooks up those objects to create+run the actual backend.
