 ### Build Process Details
 - **Platforms**: Supports `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64` for multi-arch builds.
 - **Local Build**: Uses `local` builder with `useDockerCLI: true` and `useBuildkit: true` for fast, cached builds without pushing to a registry.
+- **Docker Bake**: The `docker-bake.hcl` file enables building all service images simultaneously for multiple platforms using `docker buildx bake -f docker-bake.hcl`, complementing Skaffold for batch builds.
 - **Dependencies**: Some services require proto generation (via `genproto.sh` scripts); generated files (e.g., `demo.pb.go`) are included in source trees and built into images. Changes to `.proto` files may require manual regeneration before rebuild.
-- **Load Generator**: Handled via a separate Skaffold config requiring the main 'app' config, ensuring it's deployed alongside services.

 ### Deployment and Runtime
 - **Manifest Updates**: Skaffold replaces image tags in manifests during deploy.

+# PR #3113: Workflow Design Impact Analysis
+
+## Affected Workflows
+- **Local Development Workflow (1)**: Changes to Dockerfiles remove explicit --platform flags to leverage targetplatform for better multi-arch support. skaffold.yaml updated to include platforms and buildkit for loadgenerator artifact. This aligns with and strengthens the documented multi-arch build capabilities. Design doc updated to mention docker-bake.hcl as complementary tool.
+- **GKE Deployment Workflow (2)**: Similar build fixes improve image building and pushing for multi-arch in GKE deployments. cloudbuild.yaml updates skaffold version to v2.14.1, potentially for compatibility.
+- **Helm Chart Deployment (3)**: Adds template and values for shoppingassistant service, corrects image repository name, bumps version to 0.10.4. This completes the chart for all services. Design doc updated to reflect addition, including diagram and removal of enhancement note.
+- **Kustomize Customization and Deployment (4)**: Updates to base manifests (e.g., adservice.yaml etc.) likely to match new image tags or configs, and addition of shopping-assistant component in components/ for customization.
+- **Terraform Infrastructure Provisioning (5)**: Downgrades google provider to 6.26.0 and gcloud module to ~> 3.0, possibly to resolve compatibility issues with current terraform version.
+- **Cloud Build CI/CD Pipeline (6)**: Updates skaffold image version in cloudbuild.yaml to v2.14.1.
+- **Release Process (7)**: Updates to release/istio-manifests.yaml and kubernetes-manifests.yaml, likely incorporating new service or image changes.
+- **Adding New Microservice (8)**: The PR adds the shoppingassistant service as per the workflow, updating skaffold.yaml, helm-chart, kustomize, and docs/adding-new-microservice.md with steps or examples.
+
+## Workflow 1 Analysis
+### Summary of design changes
+The PR fixes Dockerfiles to support multi-platform builds by removing --platform args in build stages, allowing use of TARGETPLATFORM ARG for cross-compilation. Adds explicit platforms and local buildkit config for loadgenerator in skaffold.yaml, ensuring consistent multi-arch support across all artifacts. Introduces docker-bake.hcl for batch multi-platform builds. These changes implement and enhance the documented support for multi-arch local builds, improving developer experience on arm64 machines or mixed environments.
+
+Potential benefits: Faster, more reliable local builds on Apple Silicon or other non-amd64 hosts, reduced build failures.
+
+The design doc has been updated to include mention of docker-bake.hcl.
+
+No major diagram changes, but the build step now implicitly supports multi-platform.

+## Workflow 2 Analysis
+### Summary of design changes
+Similar to workflow 1, the PR enhances the build phase for pushing to registry with multi-platform support via updated Dockerfiles and skaffold config. The cloudbuild.yaml change to older skaffold version may address specific bugs or compatibility in CI environment. These ensure the workflow works reliably in cloud contexts with diverse architectures.

+
+## Workflow 4 Analysis
+### Summary of design changes
+The PR updates several kustomize/base/*.yaml files, likely to incorporate changes from new service or image updates. Adds or updates kustomize/components/shopping-assistant/ for integrating the new service via Kustomize overlays. This extends the customization options to include the new microservice.
+
+Potential benefits: Users can now customize deployments to include or modify the shoppingassistant service using Kustomize components.

+
+## Similar for 5
+
+For workflow 5, changes are version downgrades, which may not change the design, just maintenance.
+
+No major impact.
+
+For workflows 6-8, since no design docs yet, general summary without diagram.
+
+The PR affects their implementation by updating configs and adding service support, but design docs need to be created to fully analyze.
