📋 axum × regulated

Ship regulated industry on Axum with sensible defaults.

Axum is a Rust workable choice for regulated industry. GreatCTO auto-detects both — adds the regulated archetype overlay, wires regulated-specific gates, and runs 34 specialist agents around your existing Axum workflow.

What changes when GreatCTO joins your Axum project

Detection → overlay → gates → reviewers.

1 · DETECT

Stack + archetype

GreatCTO reads your Cargo.toml and detects axum + regulated archetype from signals: imports, file structure, env vars, README hints.

2 · OVERLAY

Archetype pack

Attaches the regulated archetype overlay: archetype-specific reviewer + compliance gates. Override if your specifics differ; the defaults are sensible for Axum-style projects.

3 · GATES

Axum-aware reviewers

qa-engineer runs cargo clippy / cargo test / cargo-tarpaulin; security-officer audits unsafe blocks + dependency tree; performance-engineer reviews allocator patterns.

4 · MEMORY

Cross-project lessons

Bugs you've hit before in other Axum projects (connection-pool exhaustion, ORM N+1 queries, retry storms) — the agent's Step 0 includes the prior detection order. MTTR drops 94 % on second occurrence (methodology).

Concrete walkthrough.

$ cd my-axum-app && npx great-cto init
✓ scanning manifests… found manifest
✓ stack: axum (Rust)
✓ archetype: regulated
⚠ archetype + stack combo is unusual — review overlay manually
✓ 34 agents ready

$ /start "add regulated feature"
▸ architect drafting ARCH-regulated.md…
▸ pm decomposing into beads tasks…
⚐ gate:plan — your approval needed

Approve → 3 senior-devs run in parallel worktrees → 5 reviewers fan out in parallel → gate:ship → deploy. One real run walked stage-by-stage: /proof.

⚠ Honest caveat

Axum (Rust) is not a typical fit for regulated industry. The archetype overlay still attaches, but you may want to override defaults more aggressively. Check the regulated archetype page for the typical stack list and decide if your case is the right tool / right archetype.

Architecture

Every step of the pipeline, transparent.

No black-box "AI does it all" loop. GreatCTO is a deterministic state machine — 8 stages, 22 nodes, 2 human gates. Every node maps to a real agent on GitHub. Inspect the state machine →
