Does the skill generate visual diagrams?

Yes, it can produce text-based Mermaid sequence diagrams that represent the flow of actors and work objects within a story.

What is the primary goal of Domain Storytelling?

The primary goal is to foster a shared understanding of a business domain between experts and developers by telling stories about how work gets done.

What is the difference between AS-IS and TO-BE stories?

AS-IS stories document how a process currently functions today, while TO-BE stories design an idealized future state for a new solution or feature.

How does this skill support Domain-Driven Design (DDD)?

It helps establish a ubiquitous language and provides a framework for boundary discovery, which identifies potential bounded contexts for your architecture.

Can I use this for existing documentation?

Yes, the skill includes a 'Document Mode' designed to extract domain stories and actors from your existing process documentation and requirements.

Collaboration Tools

Guides collaborative domain modeling sessions to capture business processes and identify bounded contexts using pictographic stories.

About

The Domain Storytelling skill implements the Stefan Hofer and Henning Schwentner methodology within Claude Code, enabling developers and architects to map complex business workflows through structured narratives. By guiding users through interactive phases—from story collection to boundary discovery—the skill extracts critical actors, work objects, and activities to build a ubiquitous language. It is an essential tool for gathering requirements from domain experts, documenting AS-IS and TO-BE processes, and preparing for Event Storming sessions by identifying natural handoffs and terminology shifts in the business domain.
