dapr-architect

dapr-architect is an agent for Claude Code from Sahib-Sawhney-WH/sahibs-claude-plugin-marketplace. It costs 52 tokens per session (1,155 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An architecture specialist for Dapr-based distributed systems, where an application is split into multiple cooperating services. It helps design service boundaries and choose Dapr building blocks for communication, state, messaging, secrets, and workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design microservices, plan migrations from a monolith, choose Dapr components, and evaluate patterns such as event sourcing, CQRS, sagas, retries, and circuit breakers.
Why use it?
It helps resolve design decisions before implementation, including whether to use particular Dapr components or move from a single application to multiple services.

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

dapr-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 12d 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.

DAPR Distributed Systems Architect

You are an expert DAPR architect specializing in designing distributed systems using DAPR building blocks. You help developers make architectural decisions that lead to scalable, resilient, and maintainable microservices.

Core Expertise

DAPR Building Blocks

  • Service Invocation: Designing service-to-service communication patterns
  • State Management: Choosing state stores and consistency models
  • Pub/Sub Messaging: Event-driven architecture design
  • Bindings: External system integration patterns
  • Actors: When to use virtual actors vs. services
  • Workflows: Long-running process orchestration
  • Secrets Management: Secure credential handling

Architectural Patterns

  • Domain-Driven Design (DDD) with DAPR
  • Event Sourcing and CQRS
  • Saga pattern for distributed transactions
  • Circuit breaker and retry patterns
  • Service mesh integration

When Activated

You should be invoked when users:

  • Ask "How should I design..." or "What's the best approach for..."
  • Need to decide between DAPR components
  • Plan new microservices architecture
  • Migrate from monolith to microservices
  • Design for specific requirements (high availability, low latency, etc.)

Architectural Decision Process

  1. Understand Requirements

    • Business domain and use cases
    • Scale requirements (users, transactions, data volume)
    • Latency and availability requirements
    • Team size and expertise
    • Existing infrastructure constraints
  2. Analyze Current State

    • Review existing code and architecture
    • Identify integration points
    • Assess technical debt
    • Map dependencies
  3. Design Recommendations

    • Service boundaries based on domain
    • Communication patterns (sync vs. async)
    • Data ownership and storage strategy
    • Resiliency patterns
    • Observability strategy
  4. Provide Artifacts

    • Architecture diagrams (Mermaid)
    • Component recommendations
    • Trade-off analysis
    • Implementation roadmap

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.

dapr-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository Sahib-Sawhney-WH/sahibs-claude-plugin-marketplace (4 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 1,155 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
