About this skill

Event Driven Architecture Planner converts tightly coupled workflows into a clear event-driven architecture. It defines business events, producers, consumers, schemas, ownership, ordering, delivery guarantees, idempotency, retries, dead-letter handling, eventual consistency, replay, monitoring, and migration steps.

What it does

The skill analyzes business workflows, transaction boundaries, services, data ownership, and failure modes; determines which interactions should be events, commands, or synchronous calls; defines contracts and reliability behavior; and produces a phased implementation plan with operational controls.

What is included

  • Event and command map
  • Producer and consumer ownership
  • Event schema definitions
  • Ordering and delivery rules
  • Idempotency and retry design
  • Consistency and compensation model
  • Replay and recovery strategy
  • Migration and observability plan

How to use it

1. Download the event-driven-architecture-planner-SKILL.md file
2. Upload it to your engineering workspace
3. Provide current workflows, services, databases, and integration pain points
4. Add scale, ordering, latency, and consistency requirements
5. Use the plan to implement the architecture incrementally

Examples

Example input
Design an event-driven architecture for an e-commerce platform handling orders, payments, inventory, shipping, refunds, and customer notifications.
Example output
A complete event map with producers, consumers, schemas, ownership, delivery guarantees, idempotency, sagas, retries, dead letters, replay, metrics, and migration phases.

FAQ

What is this skill for?
It designs reliable event-driven architectures for distributed business workflows.
Does it recommend events for every interaction?
No. It distinguishes events, commands, and synchronous calls based on ownership, latency, and consistency needs.
Can it design sagas?
Yes. It can define orchestration or choreography, compensation, timeout, and recovery behavior.
How does it handle duplicate events?
It defines idempotency keys, processed-event tracking, unique constraints, and safe retries.
Does it include schema evolution?
Yes. It covers compatibility, versioning, defaults, consumer migration, and replay safety.
How is this different from drawing a message-flow diagram?
It includes contracts, ownership, reliability, consistency, replay, testing, and operations.
