Architecture planning workflow for establishing code structure, patterns, and principles before any code is written. Runs after brainstorm: and before new: on every project. Triggers on "architect:" prefix, "plan the architecture", "architect this", "how should we structure this", "what patterns should we use". Runs on every project — architecture is never skipped (it can proceed without BRIEF.md by asking the stack questions directly, but the architecture step itself is not optional). Reads…

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

# Vibe Architect Skill

Establishes the architectural foundation before a single line of spec or code is written.
Every pattern, convention, and structural decision made here becomes the law for the entire build.

**No application code. The only files this skill writes are:** `ARCHITECTURE.md` at the
project root, what vibe-spec-review writes when it runs (its records under
`vibe/goldfish/` and `vibe/spec-reviews/`, accepted fixes to the documents it reviews
(ARCHITECTURE.md, and BRIEF.md / AGENT_ARCH.md when Step 0 reviews them),
`vibe/DECISIONS.md`), the approval entry in `vibe/DECISIONS.md`, and
`vibe/.run_state.json` on a stop. It never edits BRIEF.md or AGENT_ARCH.md itself. They
are reviewed documents: BRIEF.md changes through `change:`, AGENT_ARCH.md through `agent:`.

**The order:** read the reviewed inputs and settle choices (Steps 0–5) → write
ARCHITECTURE.md (Step 6) → independent review (Step 7) → the person approves the reviewed
architecture (Step 8) → new:. Nothing is approved before the review.

> **Autonomous / headless mode.** At startup resolve the settings with
> `python3 ~/.claude/skills/vibe-mode/scripts/vibe_state.py mode` (`mode --run` when the

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aakashdhar/vibe-skill/vibe-architect@sha256:88fd2f0bcbf22283

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261030.c951717, 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.
