What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you convert a requirements document into a clear high-level architecture design that stakeholders can review before implementation begins. It focuses on choosing the right system shape and technology stack while keeping implementation details out of scope.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Architecture Planning: Defines the major components, boundaries, and responsibilities of a software system.
• Technology Selection: Evaluates runtime, compute, storage, networking, security, deployment, and observability choices with rationale.
• Visual Documentation: Produces Mermaid diagrams for architecture, data models, data flows, and security boundaries.
• Use Case: A team has an approved requirements document and needs a reviewable architecture proposal that explains what to build, why those choices were made, and what is deferred for later.

Quick Start

Use this skill to create a high-level architecture design document from the attached requirements file for the current project.
