Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00038 | $0.00428 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00214 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00086 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
microservices-patterns 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 3d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to microservices-patterns — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
What it actually says
Microservices Patterns
Master microservices architecture patterns including service boundaries, inter-service communication, data management, and resilience patterns for building distributed systems.
When to Use This Skill
- Decomposing monoliths into microservices
- Designing service boundaries and contracts
- Implementing inter-service communication
- Managing distributed data and transactions
- Building resilient distributed systems
- Implementing service discovery and load balancing
- Designing event-driven architectures
Core Concepts
1. Service Decomposition Strategies
By Business Capability
- Organize services around business functions
- Each service owns its domain
- Example: OrderService, PaymentService, InventoryService
By Subdomain (DDD)
- Core domain, supporting subdomains
- Bounded contexts map to services
- Clear ownership and responsibility
Strangler Fig Pattern
- Gradually extract from monolith
- New functionality as microservices
- Proxy routes to old/new systems
2. Communication Patterns
Synchronous (Request/Response)
- REST APIs
- gRPC
- GraphQL
Asynchronous (Events/Messages)
- Event streaming (Kafka)
- Message queues (RabbitMQ, SQS)
- Pub/Sub patterns
3. Data Management
Database Per Service
- Each service owns its data
- No shared databases
- Loose coupling
Saga Pattern
- Distributed transactions
- Compensating actions
- Eventual consistency
4. Resilience Patterns
Circuit Breaker
- Fail fast on repeated errors
- Prevent cascade failures
Retry with Backoff
- Transient fault handling
- Exponential backoff
Bulkhead
- Isolate resources
- Limit impact of failures
Detailed patterns and worked examples
Detailed pattern documentation lives in references/details.md. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

microservices-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository RudyCity/superagent (20 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 428 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to microservices-patterns, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
