system

system is a skill for Claude Code from DavidROliverBA/ArchitectKB. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,952 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided template for documenting an enterprise system, such as an application, platform, or infrastructure component, with architecture details.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create full or quick system records, assign system metadata, and connect the information to an architecture knowledge base.
Why use it?
It helps keep system information complete and consistent, while checking for existing records to avoid duplicates.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: context: fork in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is node scripts/graph-query.js --type System --search "<name>".

Good fit Use it to create full or quick system records, assign system metadata, and connect the information to an architecture knowledge base.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

system 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 9d 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.

/system

Create a comprehensive System note documenting an enterprise system, application, platform, or infrastructure component with full architecture knowledge graph metadata.

Usage

/system <name>
/system <name> --type <type>
/system <name> --quick
/system SAP S/4HANA
/system DataPlatform --type platform
/system Kong API Gateway --quick

Instructions

This skill uses progressive disclosure to efficiently gather system information while providing sensible defaults.

Phase 1: Parse Input & Duplicate Check

  1. Extract system name from command
  2. Query graph index for existing systems:
    node scripts/graph-query.js --type System --search "<name>"
    
  3. If similar system found, show it:
    • "Found: [[System - SAP S/4HANA]]. Did you mean this one?"
    • Offer to open existing instead of creating duplicate
  4. Check for --quick flag (skip optional phases)
  5. Check for --type flag (pre-set system type)

Phase 2: Essential Information (Always Ask)

Gather required fields with defaults:

Creating System note for: <name>

1️⃣ System ID (for CMDB/integrations):
   Default: <AUTO from name: SAP-S4HANA>
   User input: [optional override]

2️⃣ Aliases (alternative names, acronyms):
   Examples: PAD, Aerospace & Defence, A&D
   → Search System Catalog in Confluence for known aliases
   → Check LegacyEngineeringSystemF space System Catalogue
   Default: []
   User input: [comma-separated list]

3️⃣ APM Number (Application Portfolio Management ID):
   Format: APM0001234
   → Search Confluence System Catalog (AL space) for APM number
   → Link: https://yourorg.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AL/
   Default: null
   User input: [APM number if known]

4️⃣ System Type:
   - application (business application)
   - platform (shared infrastructure)
   - database (data store)
   - middleware (integration layer)
   - saas (cloud service)
   - infrastructure (compute/network)
   Default: application
   User input: [selection]

5️⃣ Owner (person or team):
   Search existing: [[Person - Name]]
   Default: Current user or unassigned
   User input: [name to search and link]

6️⃣ Status:
   - active (in production)
   - planned (not yet deployed)
   - deprecated (being retired)
   Default: active
   User input: [selection]

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.

system is a skill published in the GitHub repository DavidROliverBA/ArchitectKB (52 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,952 tokens. 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 2026-09-03.
