Builds or refreshes a slim map of the current repository's architecture — its domain areas and the building blocks in each (infrastructure, application services, collaborators, aggregates, value objects, domain services) — stored locally under ~/.claude/repos/. Invoked when the user wants to map the architecture, warm up or update the architecture map or index, or runs /aido:map-architecture.

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

# Map the Architecture

Build (**warm-up**) or refresh (**update**) a slim map of the current repository. Design checks then
know *where* to look, instead of searching from scratch. The index is only a map: the code is the
truth, and every reader checks what it reads against the code.

This skill only reads the repository. It writes nothing inside it.

Load `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/guidelines/language.md` and follow it in everything you write for a person.

## Step 0: Load Context

- read **Index Location and Shape** in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/guidelines/architecture-index.md`. It
  says where the index lives and how each file this skill writes is shaped. Find `<repo-name>` and
  the index directory as it describes
- load `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/guidelines/code-standards.md`, whose "Architecture" section defines the
  roles, and `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/guidelines/project-conventions.md`. Then gather the host
  repository's conventions as it describes. They may say how the roles map onto this codebase
- run `git fetch origin`. If the current branch isn't the default branch, or is behind it, use
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add joebew42/aido/map-architecture@sha256:e693e7d70eff703e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261108.7e14cbb, 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.
