What is an ADR in the context of this skill?

An Architecture Decision Record (ADR) is a document that captures an important architectural decision made along with its context, rationale, and consequences for future reference.

How does it handle architectural trade-offs?

The skill explicitly evaluates both the benefits and risks of different patterns, such as applying the CAP theorem to database selection or weighing latency against consistency.

Can this skill help with cloud provider selection?

Yes, it specializes in evaluating cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, and Azure to provide technology recommendations based on your specific functional and non-functional requirements.

Does this skill generate production-ready code?

It focuses on high-level design, documentation, and architectural logic. For the actual implementation of these designs, it is intended to work alongside skills like Fullstack Guardian.

Is this skill suitable for small or greenfield projects?

While it excels at complex systems, it helps smaller projects by establishing clean patterns early and documenting decisions to prevent future technical debt.
