+# PLEIADES Architecture Documentation
+
+This document is the design document for PLEIADES(v1), followed by suggestions on refactoring and enhancements.
+
+## Overview
+
+PLEIADES is a computational platform designed for neutron resonance analysis, with a focus on SAMMY integration and workflow management. The architecture follows a layered design with clear separation between configuration, execution, and analysis components.
+
+## System Architecture
+
+The system is divided into four main layers:
+
+1. **Core Layer**: Core configuration management and nuclear data access
+1. **Processing Layer**: Workflow orchestration and input generation
+1. **Execution Layer**: SAMMY execution and parameter management
+1. **Analysis Layer**: Results parsing and visualization
+

+        SammyOutput --> SammyPlotter
+        SammyRunner --> SammyOutput
+    end
+```
+
+## Module Details
+
+| Module | Key Components | Complexity | Summary |
+|--------|---------------|------------|----------|
+| sammyStructures.py | `SammyFitConfig`, `sammyRunConfig` | High | Core configuration management system handling parameter storage, validation, and directory structures |
+| nucData.py | `get_mass_from_ame()`, `extract_isotope_info()`, `get_info()` | Medium | Nuclear data access layer providing isotope information and atomic mass calculations |
+| sammyUtils.py | `create_parFile_from_endf()`, `configure_sammy_run()`, `run_sammy()` | High | High-level orchestrator managing workflow and coordinating between modules |
+| sammyRunner.py | `run_sammy_fit()`, `check_sammy_environment()` | Medium | SAMMY execution manager handling both local and Docker environments |
+| sammyInput.py | `InputFile` class | Medium | SAMMY input file generator with format-specific handlers |
+| sammyParFile.py | `ParFile`, `Update` classes | High | Parameter file manager supporting complex operations on SAMMY par files |
+| sammyOutput.py | `lptResults` class | Medium | Output parser extracting fit results from SAMMY output files |
+| sammyPlotter.py | `process_and_plot_lst_file()` | Low | Visualization tools for SAMMY results |
+| simData.py | `create_transmission()`, `Isotope` class | Low | Simulation support for transmission data |
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+The following example demonstrates a typical workflow using PLEIADES for SAMMY analysis:
+
+```python
+# 1. Configuration Setup
+from pleiades import sammyUtils, sammyPlotter
+config = sammyUtils.SammyFitConfig("uranium.ini")
+
+# 2. Generate Parameter Files
+sammyUtils.create_parFile_from_endf(config, verbose_level=1)
+
+# 3. Configure SAMMY Run
+sammy_run = sammyUtils.configure_sammy_run(config, verbose_level=1)
+
+# 4. Execute SAMMY Fit
+sammyUtils.run_sammy(config, verbose_level=1)
+
+# 5. Analyze Results
+sammyPlotter.process_and_plot_lst_file(
+    f"{config.params['directories']['sammy_fit_dir']}/results/SAMMY.LST",
+    residual=True,
+    quantity="transmission"
+)
+
+# Optional: Iterative Refinement
+# Update isotopes/parameters and rerun
+config.params["isotopes"]["names"].append("Ta-181")
+config.params["isotopes"]["abundances"].append(0.01)
+sammy_run = sammyUtils.configure_sammy_run(config, verbose_level=1)
+```
+
+Key Workflow Steps:
+
+1. Initialize configuration from `INI` file
+2. Generate parameter files from `ENDF` data
+3. Configure SAMMY run environment
+4. Execute SAMMY fit
+5. Analyze and visualize results
+6. [Optional] Iterate with parameter refinements
+
+The system supports both simple workflows and complex scenarios involving multiple isotopes and iterative refinement of fits.
+
+## Opportunities for Enhancement
+
+### Core Considerations
+
+1. **SAMMY Integration Requirements**
+    - The existing codebase effectively handles SAMMY's fixed-width format requirements
+    - This core functionality must be preserved during any refactoring
+    - Format definitions and card structures are essential and cannot be simplified
+
+1. **Class Organization**
+    - The `ParFile` and `InputFile` classes successfully manage complex SAMMY requirements
+    - Could benefit from internal reorganization while maintaining external interfaces
+    - Consider using composition for different card types while keeping format compliance
+
+    ```python
+    # Current approach works but could be reorganized internally
+    class ParFile:
+        def __init__(self):
+            self._SPIN_GROUP_FORMAT = {...}  # Essential format definition
+            self._CHANNEL_RADII_FORMAT = {...}
+    ```
+
+### Implementation Opportunities
+
+1. **Type System Enhancement**
+    - Adding type hints could improve code maintainability
+    - Would help new developers understand data structures better
+
+    ```python
+    # Potential enhancement while maintaining functionality
+    def parse_spin_group(self, data: SpinGroupData) -> SpinGroupCard:
+        """Parse spin group data into SAMMY-compliant format"""
+    ```
+
+1. **File Handling Consistency**
+    - Consider standardizing on `pathlib` for path operations
+    - Maintain robust file handling while improving consistency
+
+    ```python
+    # Standardize on pathlib while keeping functionality
+    symlink_path = pathlib.Path(fit_dir) / "res_endf8.endf"
+    ```
+
+1. **Input Validation**
+    - Could consolidate validation while maintaining format requirements
+    - Early validation would help users identify issues sooner
+
+### Testing and Documentation
+
+1. **Test Coverage**
+    - Add unit tests to ensure format compliance
+    - Create test fixtures for common SAMMY input scenarios
+    - Validate output formats match SAMMY requirements
+
+1. **Documentation Enhancement**
+    - Expand docstrings for complex format handling
+    - Add examples of correct SAMMY input generation
+    - Document format requirements clearly
+
+### Performance Considerations
+
+1. **Resource Management**
+    - Review file handling patterns
+    - Consider streaming for large files where possible
+
+    ```python
+    # Potential enhancement for large files
+    def process_large_file(self, filename: Path) -> Iterator[str]:
+        with filename.open() as f:
+            for line in f:
+                yield self.process_line(line)
+    ```
+
+### Future Development Opportunities
+
+1. **Module Organization**
+    - Consider grouping related SAMMY format handlers
+    - Maintain format compliance while improving code organization
+
+1. **Error Handling**
+    - Enhance error messages for format-related issues
+    - Help users understand SAMMY's requirements better
+
+The original implementation effectively manages SAMMY's complex requirements. These suggestions aim to build upon that foundation while maintaining full compatibility with SAMMY's fixed-width format requirements.
