What it does

Architect is an agent skill from sreichholf/dreamDroid. Settle data shapes, ownership, boundaries, and interfaces before code crosses a function/module boundary. Use for non-trivial design work.

Its SKILL.md is about 220 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: DreamDroid is an open-source enigma2 client for android based devices. The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Non-trivial design work

Example prompts

  • “/architect”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Name the domain data shape and invariants.
  2. Map ownership and lifecycle. For concurrency, identify what is truly shared before proposing synchronization.
  3. Draft 2-3 boundary shapes when the decision is contested. If delegate is available, assign independent designs; otherwise keep…
  4. Compare on reader load, invalid states, migration cost, idempotence, testability, and fit with existing architecture.
  5. Select the smallest coherent shape and write the caller-facing signature/contract before implementation.
  6. Use interrogate for high-risk or contested decisions.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 36f622a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Architect loads about 224 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 97 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~37
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~224

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Architect

Read the caller first. Architecture starts from use, not from an isolated abstraction.

  1. Name the domain data shape and invariants.
  2. Map ownership and lifecycle. For concurrency, identify what is truly shared before proposing synchronization.
  3. Draft 2-3 boundary shapes when the decision is contested. If delegate is available, assign independent designs; otherwise keep alternatives explicit and sequential.
  4. Compare on reader load, invalid states, migration cost, idempotence, testability, and fit with existing architecture.
  5. Select the smallest coherent shape and write the caller-facing signature/contract before implementation.
  6. Use interrogate for high-risk or contested decisions.
