Architect Design | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Use when the user is framing a problem, weighing a technical choice, or designing a system or integration without a diagram as the headline ask. Triggers on "how should we", "we need to", "what's the right way to build X", tech-selection, integration design, NFR trade-offs. Shapes a one-page concept first, then produces a Google-style design doc (TL;DR, context, goals/non-goals, proposal, alternatives, risks, rollout, open questions), 2-5 pages, with Mermaid inline, and converges it against review. Cloud well-architected by construction (AWS/Azure/GCP and primitives providers like Hetzner). Do NOT use when the ask is a diagram (use architect-diagram) or a critique (use architect-review).
