## Active Decisions and Considerations
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Architecture Decisions Made
 | 
			
		||||
- **Layered architecture**: TUI → Manager → Core → System layers
 | 
			
		||||
- **Command pattern**: For undo/redo functionality
 | 
			
		||||
- **Immutable state**: All operations return new state
 | 
			
		||||
- **Permission model**: Explicit edit mode with sudo management
 | 
			
		||||
### Architecture Decisions Validated
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Layered architecture**: Successfully implemented with clear separation
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Reactive UI**: Textual's reactive system working excellently
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Data models**: Dataclasses with validation proving robust
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **File parsing**: Comprehensive parser handling all edge cases
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Permission model**: Read-only default working as intended
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Design Patterns Chosen
 | 
			
		||||
- **Observer pattern**: For state change notifications
 | 
			
		||||
- **Factory pattern**: For parser creation
 | 
			
		||||
- **Command pattern**: For operations with undo capability
 | 
			
		||||
### Design Patterns Implemented
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Reactive patterns**: Using Textual's reactive attributes effectively
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Data validation**: Comprehensive validation in models and parser
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Error handling**: Graceful degradation and user feedback
 | 
			
		||||
- 🔄 **Command pattern**: Planned for Phase 3 edit operations
 | 
			
		||||
- 🔄 **Observer pattern**: Will implement for state change notifications
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Technical Constraints Acknowledged
 | 
			
		||||
- **Python 3.13+**: Using modern Python features
 | 
			
		||||
- **Unix-like systems**: Primary target (Linux, macOS)
 | 
			
		||||
- **Root access**: Required for `/etc/hosts` modifications
 | 
			
		||||
- **File integrity**: Must preserve existing structure
 | 
			
		||||
### Technical Constraints Confirmed
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Python 3.13+**: Excellent choice with modern features working well
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **Unix-like systems**: Targeting Linux/macOS successfully
 | 
			
		||||
- ✅ **File integrity**: Parser preserves comments and structure perfectly
 | 
			
		||||
- 🔄 **Root access**: Will be implemented in Phase 3 edit mode
 | 
			
		||||
