Anarchitects were conceptual entities created by the Celestis using flux technology and used as weapons by the enemy during an assault on Gallifrey.
The anarchitects acted like computer viruses that were able to inhabit architecture and rewrite it, allowing them to rebuild entire cities at will. This technology was the same used by the early TARDIS models and were within the scope of the Gallifreyans, but were never considered as a weapon of war. They could infect walls and floors, but individuals were safe if they were in a river.
According to a rumour, Lord Ruthventracolixabaxil starved to death in his own TARDIS when an anarchitect hijacked it and turned the central corridor into an endless Möbius loop. Homunculette faced an anarchitect in the ruins of London after the 22nd century Dalek invasion. (PROSE: Alien Bodies)
