Create an Architecture Decision Record (ADR) or evaluate a system design.
/architecture $ARGUMENTS
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.
