multi-region-design SKILL.md skillA
multi-region-design from amey-thakur/ai-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Choose between active-passive and active-active multi-region architectures with eyes open to data, cost, and failover reality. Use when regional resilience or data residency forces the multi-region question.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Multi-region design Multi-region is a data problem wearing an infrastructure costume. Decide how writes replicate and reconcile first; everything else (routing, failover, cost) follows from that answer. ## Method 1. **Demand the requirement in numbers.** Region-down RTO/RPO targets, latency targets per user geography, and residency laws naming specific data classes. "The board wants multi-region" without numbers produces expensive theater; a single region across three zones already survives most real outages. 2. **Climb the ladder only as far as needed.** (a) Backups replicated cross-region (RTO hours-days). (b) Active-passive warm standby: async-replicated data, scaled-down stack, promote on failure (RTO minutes-hours, RPO seconds-minutes). (c) Active-active reads: one write region, replica reads everywhere (adds read latency wins). (d) Active-active writes: multi-master or partitioned writes (RTO ~0, and a standing engineering tax). Each rung roughly doubles complexity; stop early. 3. **Solve writes explicitly.** Options: single write region (simple; cross-region write latency for far users), partition by home region …

How to install
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/multi-region-design@sha256:abcab211aad91673The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260720.3c9eba4, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
