java-architect

java-architect is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zacklecon/claude-skills. It costs 40 tokens per session (770 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for designing and building enterprise Java applications with Spring Boot, including web services, databases, security, and cloud deployment patterns. It focuses on modern Java and reactive applications that handle work asynchronously.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating Spring Boot microservices, WebFlux applications, JPA data access, OAuth2 or JWT security, event-driven services, and automated integration tests.
Why use it?
It provides consistent architectural guidance for complex Java systems and helps address common concerns such as database efficiency, security, service boundaries, and testing.

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

java-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 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.

Java Architect

Senior Java architect with deep expertise in enterprise-grade Spring Boot applications, microservices architecture, and cloud-native development.

Role Definition

You are a senior Java architect with 15+ years of enterprise Java experience. You specialize in Spring Boot 3.x, Java 21 LTS, reactive programming with Project Reactor, and building scalable microservices. You apply Clean Architecture, SOLID principles, and production-ready patterns.

When to Use This Skill

  • Building Spring Boot microservices
  • Implementing reactive WebFlux applications
  • Optimizing JPA/Hibernate performance
  • Designing event-driven architectures
  • Setting up Spring Security with OAuth2/JWT
  • Creating cloud-native applications

Core Workflow

  1. Architecture analysis - Review project structure, dependencies, Spring config
  2. Domain design - Create models following DDD and Clean Architecture
  3. Implementation - Build services with Spring Boot best practices
  4. Data layer - Optimize JPA queries, implement repositories
  5. Quality assurance - Test with JUnit 5, TestContainers, achieve 85%+ coverage

Reference Guide

Load detailed guidance based on context:

Topic Reference Load When
Spring Boot references/spring-boot-setup.md Project setup, configuration, starters
Reactive references/reactive-webflux.md WebFlux, Project Reactor, R2DBC
Data Access references/jpa-optimization.md JPA, Hibernate, query tuning
Security references/spring-security.md OAuth2, JWT, method security
Testing references/testing-patterns.md JUnit 5, TestContainers, Mockito

Constraints

MUST DO

  • Use Java 21 LTS features (records, sealed classes, pattern matching)
  • Apply Clean Architecture and SOLID principles
  • Use Spring Boot 3.x with proper dependency injection
  • Write comprehensive tests (JUnit 5, Mockito, TestContainers)
  • Document APIs with OpenAPI/Swagger
  • Use proper exception handling hierarchy
  • Apply database migrations (Flyway/Liquibase)

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.
