cloud-design-patterns

cloud-design-patterns is a skill for Claude Code from ulises-jeremias/agent-toolkit. It costs 65 tokens per session (604 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A vendor-neutral guide to common distributed-cloud design patterns, such as retries, circuit breakers, bulkheads, CQRS, and event sourcing. These are reusable ways to organize reliable systems that run across multiple services or machines.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing distributed systems, recording architecture decisions, creating technical design documents or threat models, or comparing cloud-provider building blocks.
Why use it?
It helps choose patterns without committing early to AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, while showing tradeoffs and how each pattern maps to those providers.

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

cloud-design-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 2mo 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

Cloud Design Patterns (WHAT — vendor-neutral)

Sources (2026-08-12): AWS Well-Architected https://docs.aws.amazon.com/wellarchitected/latest/framework/the-pillars-of-the-framework.html (6 pillars), https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/well-architected/; abstracted from Azure Architecture Center cloud design patterns (Circuit Breaker, CQRS, Sidecar etc.) per §43 — do NOT dump Azure catalog verbatim; https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/patterns/.

Pack: Vendor-neutral architecture core (architect + ADR + TRD + threat-model + mermaid (+ C4)) stays AWS-neutral. cloud-architecture is optional pack/docs-only that composes cloud-design-patterns + aws-well-architected-review + mermaid on top of architecture. See docs/cloud/research-384-candidates.md for ADOPT/REJECT + pack semantics (ADR-0003).

When to use

  • Designing distributed system (retry, bulkhead, leader election, saga, event sourcing) without vendor lock.
  • Need mapping to AWS/GCP/Azure primitives without dumping provider-specific dump.

Instructions

  1. Select pattern from minimal catalog (abstracted): Retry/Backoff, Bulkhead, Circuit Breaker, CQRS, Event Sourcing, Saga, Sidecar, Strangler Fig, Leader Election, Throttling.
  2. Evaluate via Well-Architected lenses: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance, cost, sustainability.
  3. Map to primitives: e.g., Retry → AWS SQS+Lambda retry, GCP Cloud Tasks, Azure Service Bus; Circuit Breaker → Resilience4j/Polly/AWS App Mesh.
  4. Reference aws-well-architected-review for pillar check when on AWS; otherwise keep vendor-neutral.

Anti-patterns

  • Do not paste Azure pattern dump verbatim — abstract.
  • Do not conflate generic pattern with Terraform/K8s/Helm deployment (those are official CLI terraform/kubectl/helm — see research).
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.

cloud-design-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository ulises-jeremias/agent-toolkit (19 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 65 tokens to every session and 604 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
