SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill addresses architectural friction where shallow, tightly-coupled modules make code difficult to test, maintain, and navigate for AI agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deepening Analysis: Identifies shallow modules that lack leverage and proposes refactors to create deep, high-leverage interfaces.
  • Architectural Guidance: Uses a strict domain-driven vocabulary to ensure consistent naming and seam placement across the codebase.
  • Use Case: When a codebase has become a collection of pass-through functions that are hard to test in isolation, this skill helps restructure them into deep modules with clear seams and adapters.

Quick Start

Use the improve-codebase-architecture skill to analyze the current module structure and propose three deepening opportunities for the order processing system.

FAQPage Schema
How do I refactor shallow modules to improve codebase testability?

Deepening analysis identifies shallow, pass-through modules lacking leverage and proposes refactors to create deep, high-leverage interfaces with clear seams and adapters for better testability.

What is a shallow module and why does it cause architectural friction?

A shallow module lacks leverage and often acts as a pass-through function. It creates architectural friction by tightly coupling dependencies, which makes code difficult to test and maintain in isolation.

When do I need to apply domain-driven design and seam-based interface isolation?

You apply seam-based interface isolation when a complex codebase requires structural cleanup and dependency decoupling. It uses strict domain-driven vocabulary to ensure consistent naming and seam placement across modules.

Does this approach work for complex codebases requiring structural cleanup and AI-navigability?

Yes, this approach specifically applies to complex codebases requiring structural cleanup and enhanced AI-navigability. It restructures tightly-coupled pass-through functions into deep modules with clear seams and adapters.

What is the best way to decouple dependencies in a complex codebase?

The best way to decouple dependencies is by identifying shallow modules and refactoring them into deep components using strict domain-driven vocabulary and seam-based interface isolation for enhanced architectural locality.
