Create or evaluate an architecture decision record (ADR). Use when choosing between technologies (e.g., Kafka vs SQS), documenting a design decision with trade-offs and consequences, reviewing a system design proposal, or designing a new component from requirements and constraints.

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

# /architecture

> If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see [CONNECTORS.md](../../CONNECTORS.md).

Create an Architecture Decision Record (ADR) or evaluate a system design.

## Usage

```
/architecture $ARGUMENTS
```

## Modes

**Create an ADR**: "Should we use Kafka or SQS for our event bus?"
**Evaluate a design**: "Review this microservices proposal"
**System design**: "Design the notification system for our app"

See the **system-design** skill for detailed frameworks on requirements gathering, scalability analysis, and trade-off evaluation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add devantler-tech/agent-plugins/architecture@sha256:9f4550e036f037bb

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.5e3cd8e, 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.
