Evaluate and improve software architecture decisions to ensure scalability, maintainability, and correctness.
Catch architectural flaws early, before they become expensive to fix.
Use this skill when:
Option A: Monolith with modular packages
Pros: Simpler deployment, shared codebase
Cons: Tight coupling risk, harder to scale teams
Option B: Microservices
Pros: Independent scaling, team autonomy
Cons: Operational complexity, network latency
Decision: Option A for now, with clear module boundaries
Reason: Team size is 3 engineers. Operational overhead of microservices
outweighs benefits at this scale.
Let us use microservices because they are modern.
Plan, reason, and verify across multiple levels using multi-step reasoning, tree-of-thought, and structured agent workflows.
Detect and repair security vulnerabilities or operational errors in the agent's own code and environment without manual intervention.
Generate and apply complete design systems from text descriptions or visual examples using AI and modern tooling.
Adapt user interfaces automatically based on device, viewport, user preferences, and contextual signals.
Build and query knowledge graphs automatically to capture relationships between entities, concepts, and project artifacts.
Run agent tasks in isolated, sandboxed environments to prevent malicious or untrusted code from affecting the host system.
