System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill channels Neal Ford and Rebecca Parsons to reveal hidden coupling, undocumented fitness functions, and irreversible bets that could undermine a plan’s evolvability, turning vague architectural promises into actionable critique.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persona-driven review: Run review mode against plans or specs to identify fitness function gaps, unjustified coupling, and implicit bets using the persona’s heuristics.
  • Construction guidance: When generating designs or ADRs, follow the persona’s construction protocol to name fitness criteria, map coupling, and document the bets being placed on future change.
  • Reference-backed protocol: Use the included references/review.md and references/construction.md to anchor findings in the structured Ford/Parsons workflows.

Quick Start

Ask for an evolutionary architecture critique of your plan from Neal Ford and Rebecca Parsons.
