Which architecture patterns does this skill support?

It provides guidance on modern patterns including CQRS, Event Sourcing, Saga patterns for transactions, and resilience patterns like Circuit Breakers and Bulkheads.

What is the ADR format used by the Architect skill?

The skill uses a standardized Markdown format that includes the decision status, context/motivation, the proposed change, and a detailed analysis of positive, negative, and neutral consequences.

How does the skill help in evaluating new technologies?

It utilizes a weighted framework that scores technologies across six key criteria: fit, maturity, team skills, cost, integration, and scalability to ensure objective decision-making.

Can this skill help with performance and scalability planning?

Yes, it provides a scalability checklist covering bottlenecks, horizontal scaling, caching strategies, load balancing, and auto-scaling triggers to ensure systems can grow with user demand.
