Code Architecture Planner v1.0.0

A Claude skill that plans and documents software architecture through a collaborative, iterative process.

Features

  • 9-section architecture document — Project overview, scope boundaries, tech stack, folder structure, components, data flow, tradeoffs, simplicity check, implementation tasks, and appendix
  • Mermaid diagram — Visual system architecture generated alongside the doc
  • 3 domain reference files — Web (Node.js/Express), Game (Unity/C#), C++/CMake — auto-detected from context
  • Simplicity Check — Actively audits the architecture for over-engineering and flags where simpler approaches work
  • Scope boundaries as thresholds — Out-of-scope features include upgrade paths so you know the cost of adding them later
  • Collaborative pushback — Advocates for better approaches when warranted, explains the tradeoff, respects your decision
  • 9-point consistency check — Internal audit catches contradictions between sections before presenting output
  • Iterative feedback — Targeted revisions without full regeneration, tracks approved sections
  • Clarification escape hatches — Every multiple-choice question includes an option to get more detail before deciding
