Clean Architecture & Modular Monoliths

About

This skill guides Claude in structuring backend applications using isolated bounded contexts and a minimal shared kernel to prevent 'Core Obesity Syndrome.' It provides strict patterns for organizing code into Domain, Application, and Infrastructure layers, prioritizing 'Duplication Over Coupling' to maintain clear boundaries. It is essential for developers building scalable Node.js or TypeScript backends who want to implement Domain-Driven Design (DDD) with high maintainability and low technical debt.

Key Features

• Automated organization of Domain, Application, and Infrastructure layers
• Standardized implementation of Entities and Value Objects using UUIDv7
• Management of 'Anoréxico' Shared Kernels to minimize cross-context coupling
• Proactive file placement logic based on Modular Monolith principles
• Strict enforcement of Bounded Contexts over shared global layers
• 7 GitHub stars

Use Cases

• Defining communication patterns between disparate service contexts
• Architecting a new feature module with isolated business logic
• Refactoring a 'big ball of mud' codebase into a structured Modular Monolith
