This skill guides the definition of relationships and integration contracts between distinct bounded contexts within a complex system using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) patterns. It is crucial for preventing domain leakage, planning anti-corruption layers (ACLs), and clarifying ownership boundaries when multiple services interact, ensuring a robust and scalable system architecture.

This skill guides the architectural definition of complex business domains using Domain-Driven Design (DDD). It helps in defining core subdomains, separating services by bounded contexts, and establishing a unified ubiquitous language. It is essential for decomposing monoliths, structuring microservices, and aligning team ownership with clear domain boundaries.

Analyzes a codebase to surface subdomains (Core, Supporting, Generic) and recommend bounded contexts using DDD strategic design, helping teams clarify domain boundaries, cohesion, and service split decisions.

This skill guides the planning and execution of complex business domains using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles. It helps developers move from strategic modeling (defining subdomains and bounded contexts) to tactical implementation patterns like CQRS, Event Sourcing, and Saga orchestration. Use it when dealing with complex, high-variability business rules and needing explicit architectural boundaries.

Provides a senior migration architect workflow that researches legacy codebases, maps bounded contexts, and writes Strangler Fig-based modernization roadmaps so other teams can incrementally reshape systems.

Guides distributed system architecture by decomposing monoliths, defining bounded contexts, selecting communication protocols, and recommending resilience, observability, and deployment strategies for cloud-native microservices.

This specialist provides expert architectural guidance for designing and implementing scalable modular monolith backends using NestJS. It leverages Domain-Driven Design (DDD), Clean Architecture, and event-driven patterns to establish clear bounded contexts and module boundaries. Use this skill when building complex systems that require high modularity, maintainability, and a planned path toward microservices, ensuring state isolation and loose coupling within a single deployment unit.

Provides technology-agnostic guidance for architecting and reviewing modular systems. This skill covers core architectural principles such as bounded contexts, state isolation, explicit contracts, and failure containment. Use it when determining service boundaries, assessing coupling between domains, or designing new greenfield architectures without assuming a specific framework, language, or repository structure.

This skill guides the decomposition of monolithic applications into independent microservices using Domain-Driven Design (DDD). It defines bounded contexts, service boundaries, communication patterns (sync/async), data ownership, and provides a structured migration roadmap (e.g., Strangler Fig Pattern). Essential for scaling and modernizing large enterprise systems.

A comprehensive guide for designing and building large-scale, resilient platforms using the evolutionary modular monolith approach. It enforces strong logical boundaries using DDD principles (bounded contexts, flat-by-aggregate) and implements necessary patterns like Anti-Corruption Layers and transactional outboxes. Use this when defining a system's structure, choosing between monolith and microservices, or ensuring robust decoupling from external vendors (e.g., ERP, AI).

Apply Eric Evans-inspired Domain-Driven Design rules for modeling complex domains. Define bounded contexts, protect ubiquitous language, and design aggregates. Use this skill for strategic domain modeling, context mapping, repositories, and domain services before making design or code decisions.

Apply lightweight Domain-Driven Design rules for bounded contexts, subdomains, and tactical modeling without unnecessary ceremony. Ideal for practical software architecture guidance and design decisions in complex systems.
