Starter Architecture Design

Overview & Purpose

starter-architecture-design is a starter workflow that chains skills together. It chains together the ideal combination of reasoning skills for high-level tasks, without needing manual setup.

Execution Workflow

1. Probe Requirements (socratic-method): Uncover hidden assumptions, latency targets, and scalability requirements.
2. System Mapping (systems-thinking): Identify feedback loops, system dependencies, and potential bottlenecks.
3. Explore Architectural Options (tree-of-thought): Compare competing architectures (e.g. Microservices vs Monolith) with heuristic scoring.
4. Enforce Boundary Limits (ulysses-protocol): Establish strict scope limits and stopping criteria.
5. Render Architecture (visual-reasoning): Generate a Mermaid flowchart and sequence diagram.

Expected Output Contract
