Can it help document architectural decisions?

Yes, it generates standardized Architectural Decision Record (ADR) templates and detailed implementation roadmaps to ensure your design choices are documented and actionable.

Which specific architecture patterns are supported?

The skill supports over 13 patterns, including Hexagonal (Ports & Adapters), Microservices, Event-Driven, Functional Core, CQRS/ES, and Modular Monoliths.

How does this skill help in choosing an architecture?

It uses an interactive selection workflow that evaluates your team size, system complexity, and core technical requirements to recommend the most suitable architectural paradigm.

Is this skill useful for existing projects or just new ones?

It is highly effective for both. For existing projects, it provides migration path analysis and compatibility checks to help refactor or modernize your current architecture.

Developer Tools

Guides developers through selecting, comparing, and implementing software architecture patterns tailored to specific project constraints and requirements.

The Architecture Paradigms skill provides an interactive framework for developers to evaluate and select the ideal architectural foundation for any system. By analyzing key factors such as team size, domain complexity, and scalability needs, it assists in choosing between diverse patterns like Hexagonal, Microservices, Event-Driven, or Modular Monoliths. Beyond simple selection, the skill generates structured implementation roadmaps, Architectural Decision Records (ADRs), and migration checklists to bridge the gap between high-level design and production-ready code.
