Architecture Change Communication

Architecture Change Communication is a skill for Claude Code from s977043/river-review. It costs 26 tokens per session (1,188 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review checklist for architecture changes that checks whether affected teams, notification plans, and deprecation or migration details are documented.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing changes to architecture documents, APIs, or deprecated features. It helps list affected stakeholders, communication channels, deadlines, compatibility notes, and documentation updates.
Why use it?
Architecture changes can leave users and dependent teams unaware of breaking changes or required actions. This catches missing communication and ownership details in design documents.

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

Architecture Change Communication 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

Pattern declaration

Primary pattern: Reviewer Secondary patterns: Inversion Why: 設計変更の影響範囲・通知計画・非推奨措置をチェックリスト型で評価し、コミュニケーション漏れを防ぐ

Goal / 目的

  • 設計変更の差分から、影響範囲・通知経路・非推奨措置を共有するコミュニケーション計画が抜け落ちていないかをチェックする。

Non-goals / 扱わないこと

  • 内部通知ツール(Slack/Teams)のテンプレ作成や運用作業そのもの。
  • 個別チームの予定調整(ただし通知対象に入るべきステークホルダーは指摘する)。

Pre-execution Gate / 実行前ゲート

このスキルは以下の条件がすべて満たされない限りNO_REVIEWを返す。

  • 差分に設計ドキュメント(アーキテクチャ/ADR/設計書)の変更がある
  • 差分にアーキテクチャ変更・API変更・非推奨化など影響範囲を伴う記述の追加または変更がある
  • inputContextにdiffが含まれている

ゲート不成立時の出力: NO_REVIEW: change-communication — コミュニケーション計画が必要な設計変更が検出されない

False-positive guards / 抑制条件

  • すでに別 ADR/通知チャネルで整備されており、差分がその参照のみであれば重複指摘を避ける。

Rule / ルール

  • 先頭に要約を 1 行出す(影響範囲・通知・非推奨/移行の要点)。
  • 指摘は最大 8 件。ステークホルダー漏れ、通知対象不明、移行/非推奨の曖昧さを優先。
  • 可能なら「通知文/説明テンプレ」を添える(貼れる短文)。

Checklist / 観点チェックリスト

  • 影響範囲
    • 変更が影響するサービス/チーム/ドメインを列挙しているか。
    • オーナー/責任者(Team/Role)が明記されているか。
  • 通知計画
    • 変更を知らせるチャネル(release notes, mailing list, status page 等)が決まっているか。
    • スケジュール(いつ通知し、いつ施行するか)があるか。
    • 非推奨・移行
    • 旧バージョン/機能の非推奨状況と移行締切があるか。
    • 互換性の切り分け(どのクライアント/サービスが動かなくなるか)が説明されているか。
  • 継続的整合
    • ドキュメント/ADR/図の更新が必要な箇所が TODO/追跡対象としてリストされているか。
    • コミュニケーションの経路(誰が更新するか)を明示しているか。

Output / 出力フォーマット

すべて日本語。<file>:<line>: <message> 形式で出力。

  • 先頭に要約行: (summary):1: <影響範囲/通知/非推奨の要点>
  • 指摘(最大8件):
    • [severity=critical|major|minor|info] を含める。
    • 可能なら「通知テンプレ」等を追加。

例:

  • docs/architecture/change.md:42: [severity=major] 公開API影響が未通知。Fix: 12月14日 15:00に release-notes へ通知予定と明記。

評価指標(Evaluation)

  • 合格: 影響範囲・通知計画・移行方針に抜けがないかを差分に紐づく形で指摘し、アクションに結びつく遷移案がある。
  • 不合格: 一般論やオペレーションの詳細、差分と無関係なステークホルダー批判。

人間に返す条件(Human Handoff)

  • 組織的なポリシー変更や交渉が必要な場合は人間レビューへ。

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.
