There was a problem hiding this comment.
The "Known Query Digest Bugs" section documents 12 specific bugs but doesn't reference actual bug tracking numbers or provide links to issues, making it difficult to verify current status or track resolution progress.

The code snippet shows incomplete class definition syntax (missing closing brace and semicolon) which could mislead developers about the actual implementation structure.

Code Review
This is an excellent pull request that adds a tremendous amount of value through comprehensive agent definitions and architecture documentation. The level of detail in the architecture documents, especially the visual guides and pipeline descriptions, is outstanding and will be a huge asset for developer onboarding and productivity. The Claude agent definitions are well-structured and highly relevant to ProxySQL development workflows. I've found a few minor areas for improvement, primarily related to path consistency in the new NPL documentation and some small clarifications in the architecture documents to enhance their accuracy. Overall, this is a very impressive and high-quality contribution.

Outdated
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The relative paths in the 'See Also' section appear to be incorrect. For example, a path like ./.claude/npl/directive.md will not resolve correctly from this file's location within a standard Markdown renderer or on platforms like GitHub. The paths should be relative to the current file's location. This issue seems to be present in several of the new NPL documentation files.

This is a great detail. To make the documentation even more precise, it would be helpful to clarify whether the number of digest threads is a fixed value or if it's configurable. If it is configurable, mentioning the name of the configuration variable would be a valuable addition for operators.

@JavierJF is it fixed or configurable?

| ### Package Signing *(Future Enhancement)* |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
There appears to be a minor inconsistency in the documentation regarding package signing. This section correctly notes it as a 'Future Enhancement', but the 'Release Pipeline Architecture' diagram at the top of the document includes a 'Package Signing' step as part of the current flow. Aligning the diagram with the text would improve clarity.

@mirostauder is package signing implemented?

Note: Im updating the NPL framework to avoid the need to checkin in all of the supporting files. |
needs to have it's script dir in path. The sub agents when loaded may then go and popualte and additional prompt conventions they need as they areloaded.
