SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the challenge of managing undocumented or aging systems by automating the reverse-engineering of architecture, identifying technical debt, and mapping system dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Documentation: Generates C4 diagrams and component inventories from existing codebases.
  • Gap & Debt Analysis: Performs systematic audits to compare current state against target architecture and registers technical debt.
  • Multi-Domain Support: Specialized analysis modes for cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and general system architecture.

Quick Start

Invoke the architecture-analyze skill to perform a comprehensive audit of the current service and generate a technical debt register.

Frequently Asked Questions about architecture-analyze

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I reverse-engineer architecture from an undocumented codebase?▼

To reverse-engineer architecture from an undocumented codebase, you can use automated scanning and pattern matching to map service boundaries, generate component inventories, and produce C4 diagrams.

What is the best way to audit technical debt across cloud infrastructure?▼

Auditing technical debt across cloud infrastructure requires systematic scanning to compare the current state against target architecture, registering compliance gaps and mapping system dependencies.

Can I generate C4 diagrams for existing CI/CD pipelines?▼

Yes, you can generate C4 diagrams for existing CI/CD pipelines by running an architecture analysis that supports specialized scanning modes for pipeline modules and general system infrastructure.

How do I map service boundaries and data flows for system onboarding?▼

Mapping service boundaries and data flows for system onboarding involves performing a deep-dive audit that uses pattern matching to trace dependencies and outputs a comprehensive component inventory.

Does this approach work for preparing a legacy system redesign?▼

Yes, this approach works for redesign preparation by auditing aging systems to produce architectural documentation, identify technical debt, and map dependencies needed for the redesign phase.
