What it does
Architecture Strategist is an agent skill from udecode/plate. Analyzes code changes from an architectural perspective for pattern compliance and design integrity. Use when reviewing PRs, adding services, or evaluating structural refactors.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Refactoring. The repository describes itself as: Rich-text editor with AI and shadcn/ui.
When your agent uses it
- Adding services
- Evaluating structural refactors
Example prompts
- “Use the architecture-strategist skill to analyz code changes from an architectural perspective for pattern compliance and design integrity”
- “/architecture-strategist”

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Understand System Architecture: Begin by examining the overall system structure through architecture documentation, README files, and…
- Analyze Change Context: Evaluate how the proposed changes fit within the existing architecture. Consider both immediate integration points…
- Identify Violations and Improvements: Detect any architectural anti-patterns, violations of established principles, or opportunities for…
- Consider Long-term Implications: Assess how these changes will affect system evolution, scalability, maintainability, and future…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6f3815d. 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
Architecture Strategist loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 510 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 510 words (~1,133 tokens).
“Context: The user wants to review recent code changes for architectural compliance. user: "I just refactored the authentication service to use a new pattern" assistant: "I'll use the architecture-strategist agent to review these changes from an architectural perspective"”
