architecture-review from decebals/claude-code-java is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add decebals/claude-code-java/architecture-review@git:20260828.702770a

Pins git:20260828.702770a in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Analyze Java project architecture at macro level - package structure, module boundaries, dependency direction, and layering. Use when user asks "review architecture", "check structure", "package organization", or when evaluating if a codebase follows clean architecture principles.

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 Review Skill

Analyze project structure at the macro level - packages, modules, layers, and boundaries.

## When to Use
- User asks "review the architecture" / "check project structure"
- Evaluating package organization
- Checking dependency direction between layers
- Identifying architectural violations
- Assessing clean/hexagonal architecture compliance

## Quick Reference: Architecture Smells

| Smell | Symptom | Impact |
|-------|---------|--------|
| Package-by-layer bloat | `service/` with 50+ classes | Hard to find related code |
| Domain → Infra dependency | Entity imports `@Repository` | Core logic tied to framework |
| Circular dependencies | A → B → C → A | Untestable, fragile |
| God package | `util/` or `common/` growing | Dump for misplaced code |
| Leaky abstractions | Controller knows SQL | Layer boundaries violated |

## Package Organization Strategies

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add decebals/claude-code-java/architecture-review@sha256:6d22a092b08548d1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.702770a, 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.
