architectural-analysis
From the author
User-triggered deep architectural analysis of a codebase or scoped subtree across eight modes — information architecture, data flow, integration points, UI surfaces, interaction patterns, data model, control flow, and failure modes. This skill should be used when the user asks to "diagram this codebase," "map the architecture," "show the data flow," "give me an ERD," "trace control flow," "find the integration points," "verify the layout pattern," "audit the UX architecture," or any similar request whose primary deliverable is mermaid diagrams plus cited reports under docs/architecture/. Dispatches haiku/sonnet sub-agents in parallel for per-mode exploration, then verifies every citation mechanically before any node lands in a diagram. Not for one-off prose explanations of code (use code-explanation) or for high-level system design from scratch (use system-design).

- design-architectureSenolIsci/mykgReviews the current codebase architecture and proposes improvements using four parallel specialist subagents: System Architect, Software Architect, Data Architect, and an Adversarial Architect that red-teams failure paths, LLM adversarial output scenarios, silent corruption risks, and invariant bypasses. Each subagent independently analyzes the codebase from their domain perspective, then their findings are consolidated into a living `architecture.md` file with a tracked to-do list and change log. Use this skill whenever the user asks to review, analyze, audit, or improve the architecture — or when they ask questions like "what should we change structurally?", "how is the system organized?", "what are our architecture problems?", "can you do an architecture review?", or "let's redesign X". Also trigger when the user mentions technical debt, structural improvements, security concerns, failure modes, vulnerabilities, or wants a second opinion on design decisions, even if they don't use the word "architecture".Design★ 80
- architecture-diagramathola/claude-night-marketGenerates a Mermaid architecture diagram showing high-level component relationships. Use when visualizing how plugins or modules fit together.Planning★ 343
- describe-designposit-dev/skillsResearch a codebase and create architectural documentation describing how features or systems work. Use when the user asks to: (1) Document how a feature works, (2) Create an architecture overview, (3) Explain code structure for onboarding or knowledge transfer, (4) Research and describe a system's design. Produces markdown documents with Mermaid diagrams and stable code references suitable for humans and AI agents.Design★ 550
- design-code-architecturewondelai/skillsGuided journey from an app idea to a deliberate architecture: boundaries, domain model, data decisions, and resilience, making only the expensive-to-reverse decisions and deferring the rest. Orchestrates eight skills phase by phase - clean-architecture, domain-driven-design, system-design, ddia-systems, software-design-philosophy, release-it, pragmatic-programmer, 37signals-way - asking the user questions at every decision point and recording results in the project docs/ folder (ARCHITECTURE.md, DESIGN-CODE-ARCHITECTURE-PLAN.md) so the journey resumes across sessions. Use when the user wants to design a new app's architecture, choose boundaries and a domain model, decide monolith versus microservices, or says 'how should I structure this app'. If a codebase already exists, use remove-technical-debt (aged), improve-code-quality (fresh prototype), or architecture-optimization (slow but working); if unvalidated, run create-business or create-app first. For one framework in isolation, invoke that skill directly.Design★ 2.5K
- architecture-optimizationwondelai/skillsGuided journey from a working codebase grown slow and tangled to one measurably fast, cleanly bounded, and readable. Orchestrates eight skills phase by phase - working-with-legacy-code, clean-architecture, software-design-philosophy, refactoring-patterns, system-design, ddia-systems, release-it, pragmatic-programmer - every phase carries its method inline so it runs standalone, asking the user questions at every decision point and recording results in the project docs/ folder (PERFORMANCE.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, ARCHITECTURE-OPTIMIZATION-PLAN.md) so the journey resumes across sessions. Use when the user wants to make an app faster, untangle drifted boundaries, fix slow endpoints and queries, or says 'it works but it is slow and getting worse'. For an untested prototype, improve-code-quality; for an aged codebase you fear to touch, remove-technical-debt; for greenfield structure, design-code-architecture; for marketing-site page speed, improve-website. For one framework in isolation, invoke that skill directly.Planning★ 2.5K
