SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides an AI-assisted workflow to design system architectures and make technical decisions for complex features, reducing guesswork and enabling scalable solutions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Parallel context gathering: aggregates issue context, docs, and codebase data to inform architecture choices.
  • Architecture planning: creates executive summaries, decisions, and implementation plans for new features.
  • Phase-driven workflow: guides Phase 1 (Context), Phase 2 (Design), Phase 3 (Review) with validations and Post-Tool hooks.
  • Use Case: derive an architecture design for a new feature request, PR, or migration.

Quick Start

Use the architect command to design architecture for an issue or topic. For example: /architect 347

FAQPage Schema
How do I design software architecture for a complex feature request?

Software architecture design for a complex feature is generated by aggregating issue context, codebase data, and documentation in parallel, followed by producing executive summaries, decisions, and implementation plans through a phase-driven workflow.

Can I generate an architecture plan directly from a GitHub issue?

Yes, you can generate an architecture plan from a GitHub issue by issuing a command with the issue number, which aggregates context and optionally posts the finalized design results directly back to GitHub.

What is the workflow for AI-assisted software architecture planning?

AI-assisted software architecture planning follows a phase-driven workflow: Phase 1 gathers context, Phase 2 creates the design, and Phase 3 performs review with validations and Post-Tool hooks to ensure scalable solutions.

Does this architecture design approach require any specific dependencies?

No specific dependencies are required for this architecture design approach, though it orchestrates with an architect-specialist agent to process issue-based requests or architecture topics for complex software features.

What is the best way to make technical decisions for a software migration?

The best way to make technical decisions for a software migration is using an AI-assisted approach that aggregates documentation and codebase data, reducing guesswork and enabling scalable architecture solutions through a structured review process.
