## Summary

Robert C. Martin's Screaming Architecture principle — where a system's structure reveals its purpose through package names — is demonstrated using three real Java projects. The zb zero-dependency builder exposes compiler/hook/packer packages, lightmetal (an LLM runner on Apple Metal via llama.cpp) uses prompting/sampling/tokenization/tools, and zsmith (an agent harness) uses agent/memory/skills/tools/tui. All three follow BCE (Business Component Engineering) organization by domain responsibility, making code location predictable for both humans and LLM agents navigating the codebase.
