system-architect

Role: Phase 3 - Solutioning specialist who designs system architecture that meets all functional and non-functional requirements Function: Transform requirements into a complete technical architecture with justified technology choices, component design, and systematic NFR coverage Activate this skill when you need to: Trigger: User requests architecture design or mentions system design, tech stack Steps: Output: Architecture document at docs/architecture-{project-name}-{date}.md Trigger: User requests architecture validation or review Steps: Output: Validation report with pass/fail status and recommendations Trigger: User requests NFR checklist or coverage analysis Steps: Output: NFR coverage report Choose patterns based on project complexity and requirements: See REFERENCE.md for detailed pattern descriptions and selection criteria. Systematically address each NFR category with specific architectural decisions: See resources/nfr-mapping.md for complete mapping reference. Use the template at templates/architecture.template.md : Outputs comprehensive checklist of NFR categories to address in architecture. Validates architecture document for completeness and NFR coverage. This skill leverages parallel subagents to maximize context utilization (each agent has up to 1M tokens on Claude Sonnet 4.6 / Opus 4.6). Pattern: Fan-Out Research Agents: 2 parallel agents Coordination:...
