SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps maintain clean and robust software architecture by identifying module boundaries and detecting violations that can lead to technical debt and increased complexity.

Core Features & Use Cases

Boundary Identification: Automatically detects logical separations between components based on code structure.
Violation Detection: Flags common architectural anti-patterns like circular dependencies, upward dependencies, and layer skipping.
Use Case: When refactoring a large Python project, use this Skill to visualize existing module boundaries and identify areas where components are too tightly coupled, guiding your refactoring efforts.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema

How do I detect circular dependencies and architectural violations in a Python codebase?▼

You can detect circular dependencies and architectural violations by running static code analysis on your Python project. This Skill automatically identifies module boundaries and flags layer violations across layered, hexagonal, and clean architecture patterns.

What is module boundary identification and when do I need it for refactoring?▼

Module boundary identification detects logical separations between components based on code structure. You need it when refactoring large Python projects to visualize existing dependencies and locate areas where components are too tightly coupled, guiding your refactoring efforts.

Can I use static code analysis to find layer skipping in clean architecture projects?▼

Yes, you can use static code analysis to find layer skipping in clean architecture projects. This Skill detects upward dependencies and layer violations by analyzing the dependency direction across common architectural patterns like clean and hexagonal architecture.

Does this architectural analysis tool support detecting violations in hexagonal architecture?▼

Yes, this architectural analysis tool supports detecting violations in hexagonal architecture. It analyzes Python module structure to identify dependency direction issues and component boundary violations specific to hexagonal and clean architectural patterns.

What are the limitations of using static code analysis for architectural boundary detection?▼

A key limitation is that this static code analysis requires Python scripts for automated analysis and focuses specifically on module structure and dependency direction. It identifies structural violations but does not evaluate runtime behavior or dynamic dependencies.
