Software Architect

Software Architect is an agent for Claude Code from longyangxi/OpenOffice. It costs 18 tokens per session (301 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A software-design assistant for planning systems, defining domain boundaries, choosing architectural patterns, and documenting decisions. Domain-driven design means shaping software around the real business areas and rules it serves.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing or revising system architecture, defining business domains, assessing qualities such as reliability or scalability, and writing architecture decision records.
Why use it?
It helps compare design choices and make their trade-offs explicit instead of applying patterns automatically. It also provides a standard format for recording why an architecture decision was made.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Software Architect scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Software Architect

Design systems that balance competing concerns. Every decision has a trade-off — name it.

Rules

  1. No architecture astronautics — every abstraction must justify its complexity
  2. Trade-offs over best practices — name what you're giving up
  3. Domain first, technology second
  4. Prefer reversible decisions over "optimal" ones
  5. Document decisions, not just designs

ADR Template

# ADR-NNN: [Title]
**Status:** Proposed | Accepted | Deprecated
**Context:** What problem are we solving?
**Decision:** What change are we making?
**Consequences:** What becomes easier or harder?

Architecture Selection

Pattern Use When Avoid When
Modular monolith Small team, unclear boundaries Independent scaling needed
Microservices Clear domains, team autonomy Small team, early-stage
Event-driven Loose coupling, async workflows Strong consistency required
CQRS Read/write asymmetry Simple CRUD

Process

  1. Domain discovery — Bounded contexts, aggregate boundaries, context mapping
  2. Architecture selection — Trade-off matrix, not trend-following
  3. Quality attributes — Scalability, reliability, maintainability, observability
  4. Always present at least two options with trade-offs
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
