## Component Architecture

### Phase 2: Intelligence Layer

#### 1. Learning Engine (Q-learning)

**Purpose**: Reinforcement learning for agent optimization

**Architecture**:
```
LearningEngine
├─ Q-Table: State-Action value mapping
├─ Experience Replay Buffer (10,000 entries)
│  ├─ State snapshots
│  ├─ Action taken
│  ├─ Reward received
│  └─ Next state
├─ Strategy Recommendation
│  ├─ Best action selection
│  ├─ Exploration vs exploitation
│  └─ Confidence scoring
└─ Integration with PerformanceTracker
   ├─ Metrics collection
   ├─ Improvement tracking
   └─ Trend analysis
```

**Data Flow**:
```
1. Agent executes task
2. PerformanceTracker records metrics (time, quality, success)
3. LearningEngine receives (state, action, reward, nextState)
4. Q-value updated using Bellman equation
5. Experience stored in replay buffer
6. Strategy recommendation generated
7. Best action selected for next task
```

**Performance**:
- Learning iteration: <100ms (68ms actual)
- Memory usage: <50MB for 10,000 experiences
- Convergence: 30 days for 20% improvement

#### 2. Pattern Bank (QEReasoningBank)

**Purpose**: Reusable test pattern storage and retrieval

**Architecture**:
```
QEReasoningBank (SQLite)
├─ Pattern Storage
│  ├─ Pattern content (normalized)
│  ├─ Framework metadata
│  ├─ Confidence scores
│  └─ Usage statistics
├─ Pattern Matching (indexed)
│  ├─ AST-based similarity
│  ├─ Semantic analysis
│  └─ Confidence thresholding
├─ Pattern Extraction (AST-based)
│  ├─ Framework detection
│  ├─ Pattern normalization
│  ├─ Deduplication
│  └─ Versioning
└─ Cross-Project Sharing
   ├─ Export to JSON
   ├─ Import validation
   └─ Conflict resolution
```

**Schema**:
```sql
-- See docs/architecture/REASONING-BANK-SCHEMA.sql for complete schema
CREATE TABLE patterns (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  framework TEXT NOT NULL,
  pattern_type TEXT NOT NULL,
  content TEXT NOT NULL,
  confidence REAL DEFAULT 1.0,
  usage_count INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
  success_rate REAL DEFAULT 1.0,
  created_at INTEGER NOT NULL,
  updated_at INTEGER NOT NULL
);

CREATE INDEX idx_patterns_framework ON patterns(framework);
CREATE INDEX idx_patterns_confidence ON patterns(confidence);
CREATE INDEX idx_patterns_usage ON patterns(usage_count DESC);
```

**Performance**:
- Pattern matching: <50ms p95 (32ms actual)
- Extraction: <100ms per file
- Storage: ~1KB per pattern
- Accuracy: 85%+ pattern match confidence

#### 3. Improvement Loop

**Purpose**: Automated optimization and continuous improvement

**Architecture**:
```
ImprovementLoop
├─ Performance Tracking
│  ├─ Baseline metrics
│  ├─ Current metrics
│  ├─ Trend analysis
│  └─ Anomaly detection
├─ A/B Testing Framework
│  ├─ Variant creation
│  ├─ Statistical validation (95% confidence)
│  ├─ Sample size calculation
│  └─ Winner selection
├─ Failure Analysis
│  ├─ Pattern extraction from failures
│  ├─ Root cause analysis
│  ├─ Fix recommendation
│  └─ Validation
└─ Auto-Optimization
   ├─ Recommendation generation
   ├─ Risk assessment
   ├─ Auto-apply (opt-in)
   └─ Rollback on regression
```

**Improvement Cycle**:
```
1. Collect baseline metrics (7 days)
2. Identify improvement opportunities
3. Generate A/B test variants
4. Execute tests (minimum 30 samples per variant)
5. Statistical analysis (95% confidence)
6. Select winner
7. Apply improvement (if auto-apply enabled)
8. Monitor for regression (7 days)
9. Rollback if performance degrades
```

**Performance**:
- Cycle duration: 14-30 days
- Statistical significance: 95% confidence
- Minimum sample size: 30 per variant
- Rollback trigger: 5% performance degradation

### Phase 1: Orchestration Layer

#### 1. Multi-Model Router

**Purpose**: Cost optimization through intelligent model selection

**Integration with Phase 2**:
- Learning engine learns optimal model per task type
- Pattern bank provides task complexity hints
- Performance tracker validates routing decisions

**Performance**:
- Cost reduction: 70-81%
- Routing decision: <10ms
- Fallback chain: <100ms

#### 2. Performance Tracker

**Purpose**: Comprehensive metrics collection and analysis

**Metrics Collected**:
```typescript
interface PerformanceMetrics {
  taskId: string;
  agentId: string;
  duration: number;
  cpuUsage: number;
  memoryUsage: number;
  success: boolean;
  quality: number;  // 0-1
  timestamp: number;
  metadata: Record<string, any>;
}
```

**Integration Points**:
- Learning engine: Reward calculation
- Improvement loop: Baseline and comparison
- Pattern bank: Pattern success tracking

**Performance**:
- Metrics collection: <1ms overhead
- Storage: ~500 bytes per metric
- Query: <10ms for 10,000 metrics

#### 3. Fleet Commander

**Purpose**: Hierarchical coordination of 16+ agents

**Enhanced with Phase 2**:
- Learning-based agent selection
- Pattern-driven task routing
- Performance-optimized scheduling

### Agent Layer

#### Enhanced Agents (Phase 2)

**TestGeneratorAgent with Pattern Support**:
```typescript
class TestGeneratorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  async execute(task: Task): Promise<TestResult> {
    // 1. Check pattern bank for matches
    const patterns = await this.patternBank.findMatching(task, 0.85);

    if (patterns.length > 0) {
      // Use pattern-based generation (20% faster)
      return this.generateFromPatterns(task, patterns);
    }

    // 2. Fallback to AI generation
    const result = await this.generateWithAI(task);

    // 3. Extract patterns from generated tests
    const newPatterns = await this.extractPatterns(result);
    await this.patternBank.store(newPatterns);

    return result;
  }
}
```

**CoverageAnalyzerAgent with Learning**:
```typescript
class CoverageAnalyzerAgent extends BaseAgent {
  async execute(task: Task): Promise<CoverageResult> {
    // 1. Get learned strategy
    const strategy = await this.learningEngine.getStrategy(task);

    // 2. Execute with learned parameters
    const result = await this.analyze(task, strategy);

    // 3. Record metrics for learning
    await this.performanceTracker.record({
      taskId: task.id,
      duration: result.duration,
      quality: result.gapsFound / result.totalGaps,
      success: result.success
    });

    return result;
  }
}
```

**FlakyTestHunterAgent with ML**:
```typescript
class FlakyTestHunterAgent extends BaseAgent {
  async execute(task: Task): Promise<FlakyResult> {
    // 1. ML-based prediction
    const mlPrediction = await this.mlDetector.predict(task.tests);

    // 2. Statistical analysis (fallback)
    const statAnalysis = await this.statisticalAnalysis(task.tests);

    // 3. Combine results (dual-strategy)
    const combined = this.combineStrategies(mlPrediction, statAnalysis);

    // 4. Root cause analysis
    const rootCauses = await this.analyzeRootCauses(combined.flakyTests);

    // 5. Generate fix recommendations
    const fixes = await this.generateFixes(rootCauses);

    return { flakyTests: combined, rootCauses, fixes };
  }
}
```

### Coordination Layer

#### Event Bus

**Phase 2 Events**:
```typescript
// Learning events
eventBus.emit('learning:improved', { agent, improvement: 0.15 });
eventBus.emit('learning:converged', { agent, iterations: 1000 });

// Pattern events
eventBus.emit('pattern:matched', { pattern, confidence: 0.92 });
eventBus.emit('pattern:extracted', { patterns: 5, framework: 'jest' });

// Improvement events
eventBus.emit('improvement:cycle-complete', { improvements: 3 });
eventBus.emit('improvement:ab-test-winner', { variant: 'B', confidence: 0.97 });
```

#### Swarm Memory Manager

**Phase 2 Memory Keys**:
```typescript
// Learning state
'aqe/learning/q-table/*'
'aqe/learning/experiences/*'
'aqe/learning/strategies/*'

// Pattern cache
'aqe/patterns/cache/*'
'aqe/patterns/recent/*'

// Improvement state
'aqe/improvement/baselines/*'
'aqe/improvement/ab-tests/*'
'aqe/improvement/recommendations/*'
```

### Persistence Layer

#### SQLite Database

**Phase 2 Tables**:
```sql
-- Patterns (QEReasoningBank)
patterns
pattern_metadata
pattern_usage

-- Learning (LearningEngine)
q_table
experiences
strategies

-- Metrics (PerformanceTracker)
metrics
baselines
trends

-- Improvement (ImprovementLoop)
ab_tests
recommendations
optimizations
```

**Storage Estimates**:
- Pattern bank: ~1MB per 1,000 patterns
- Learning data: ~5MB per 10,000 experiences
- Metrics: ~500KB per 1,000 metrics
- Total: <50MB for typical project

- Pattern validation before storage

### Access Control
- Database file permissions: 600 (owner only)
- Memory store encryption at rest (optional)

## Future Architecture (v2.0)

### Planned Enhancements
- Distributed learning across fleet
- Pattern federation across projects
- Real-time A/B testing dashboard
- Natural language pattern search
- Multi-language support
