Excerpt

Architecture Foundation

Overview

Use this skill to turn an architecture discussion into explicit boundaries, contracts, validation gates, and a small execution plan. The goal is not to copy an admired project, but to identify the project's shape and choose the minimum architecture that keeps ownership, effects, errors, and tests clear. For large existing repos, first explain the architecture they already have, then decide whether the work is boundary creation, boundary completion, or boundary deletion.

When To Use

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
