Audit a design or subsystem for primitive/problem fit — catch the wrong-primitive trap where a powerful or opaque Apple framework (CloudKit sharing/CKShare, NSPersistentCloudKitContainer mirroring, NSFileCoordinator, App Intents graphs, widget timelines) is adopted to enforce an elegant invariant instead of fitting the problem's actual shape. Use before adopting such a framework, when a subsystem keeps breaking in a new place after each fix, or when an architecture exists to make something "structurally impossible". Trigger on "is this the right primitive", "architecture review", "should we use CKShare", "why does this keep breaking", "fit check", "wrong primitive", or "over-engineered".
