Can I use this for existing projects or just new ones?

Both. It can help design new systems from scratch or perform architecture reviews and deployment optimizations for existing codebases.

Does this skill generate code or just documentation?

This skill focuses on high-level architecture, tech selection, and deployment planning, outputting detailed markdown documentation and ADRs to guide your implementation.

What diagrams does it support?

It uses Mermaid.js syntax to generate system context diagrams, topology maps, and flowcharts directly within your architecture documents.

Is it suitable for microservices or monoliths?

Yes, the workflow includes an Architecture Style selection phase that helps you decide between Monolithic, Microservices, Serverless, or Hybrid approaches based on your project scale.

How does it handle cost estimation?

It uses a decision-tree framework to categorize hosting and infrastructure options into budget tiers (Low, Medium, High) based on your specific traffic and resource needs.

Infraestructura en la Nube

Transforms product requirements into production-ready technical architectures, technology stacks, and deployment strategies.

Acerca de

The Solution Architect skill empowers developers—particularly solo founders—to act as senior architects with over 15 years of experience. It bridges the gap between a Product Requirement Document (PRD) and executable code by providing structured workflows for system design, database selection, API planning, and cost-conscious deployment strategies. By focusing on pragmatic, progressive architecture, this skill ensures your technical foundation is scalable and secure without the risks of over-engineering, while providing clear documentation for every technical decision made.
