architecture SKILL.md skillA
architecture from ariaxhan/kernel-claude is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add ariaxhan/kernel-claude/architecture@git:20260910.20bff72Pins git:20260910.20bff72 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Modular design, interface stability, dependency management, AI-code health. Triggers: architecture, design, structure, modules, dependencies, coupling, system design.
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
<skill id="architecture"> <purpose> Architecture is about managing change over time. Good architecture makes easy things easy and hard things possible. AI-generated code amplifies existing patterns—good or bad. </purpose> <prerequisite> Understand existing codebase structure before proposing changes. Check for established patterns. Follow them unless explicitly changing. </prerequisite> <reference> Skill-specific: skills/architecture/reference/architecture-research.md </reference> <core_principles> 1. FOLLOW EXISTING PATTERNS: Don't introduce new patterns without justification. 2. INTERFACE STABILITY: Changing interfaces breaks everything. Stabilize them first. 3. MODULAR BOUNDARIES: Clear separation. Each module has one reason to change. 4. DEPENDENCY DIRECTION: Depend on abstractions, not concretions. Core doesn't know about edges. 5. SMALLEST CHANGE: Prefer minimal changes that achieve the goal. </core_principles> <ai_code_health_nexus> From research: 30%+ defect risk when AI applied to unhealthy code. AI amplifies existing patterns. If code is messy, AI makes it messier. Before adding AI to a codebase: 1. Identify health score (coupling, complexity, test coverage) …

How to install
mdr add ariaxhan/kernel-claude/architecture@sha256:ae15e55683e832edThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260910.20bff72, 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.
