Feature Architect Skill

Designs game feature architecture before coding begins.

What This Does

Takes feature requirements and produces complete architectural plans:

• System Design - What classes/components are needed?
• Architecture Diagram - Visual structure showing relationships
• Integration Points - How does this plug into GameManager, InputManager, UIManager, etc.?
• Modern Patterns - Input System usage, async/await patterns, dependency injection approach
• Data Flow - How information moves through the system
• Initialization Order - When/how does the feature initialize?
• Resource Management - Pooling needs, object lifetime, cleanup strategy

Activation Triggers

This skill activates when you:

• Ask to "design a feature" or "plan out"
• Request an "architecture" for something
• Ask "how should I structure" a new system
• Run /design-feature command
• Ask "what classes do I need?"

Input Format

Describe your feature simply:

• "I need a boss enemy with different attack patterns"
• "Create a shop system where players buy upgrades"
• "Design a checkpoint/save system"

Output Format

Complete architecture plan with:

1. System Overview - High-level description
2. Class Structure - Classes needed, inheritance/composition
3. Dependency Map - What connects to what
4. Integration Strategy - How it plugs into starters
5. Modern Patterns Used - Input System, async, DI approaches
6. Code Skeleton - Class signatures and method stubs
7. Next Step - Ready for /generate-feature command

Jam-Time Workflow

1. Describe feature → get architecture
2. Review architecture with team
3. Use /generate-feature to write code
