aif-architecture

To generate architecture guidelines, run the skill to analyze your tech stack and DESCRIPTION.md. It identifies an architecture pattern and produces a .ai-factory/ARCHITECTURE.md with folder structure, dependency rules, and design guidelines.

Recommended architecture patterns include Layered, Modular Monolith, Clean Architecture, DDD, and Microservices. The skill analyzes your project's tech stack and constraints to recommend the most suitable pattern and define key module boundaries.

Creating an ARCHITECTURE.md file involves analyzing project context from DESCRIPTION.md to generate a cohesive document. The skill outputs a ready-to-use file containing recommended folder structure, dependency rules, and coding guidelines aligned to your language.

You can tailor architecture recommendations by providing project context through DESCRIPTION.md and skill-context overrides. The skill leverages these inputs to align the pattern selection, module boundaries, and design guidelines with your specific requirements.

Analyzing a tech stack improves software design consistency by replacing ad-hoc decisions with cohesive architecture guidelines. The skill evaluates constraints to produce standardized folder structures and dependency rules across the entire project.

You need to define project architecture boundaries and design patterns when architecture decisions become ad-hoc and inconsistent. The skill assesses your project requirements to establish cohesive module boundaries and generate standardized guidelines.
