Microservices Patterns

SkillAI & models

microservices-patterns is a skill that teaches an AI agent how to design distributed systems using established microservices architecture patterns. It covers service boundaries, inter-service communication, data management, and resilience patterns, so the agent can help plan and review microservices-based systems.

What your AI can do with it

  • Guides definition of service boundaries in a distributed system
  • Explains inter-service communication approaches
  • Covers data management patterns for microservices
  • Applies resilience patterns for building distributed systems

Getting started

  1. Have an AI agent that supports loading skills.
  2. Add the microservices-patterns skill to the agent's available skills.
  3. Ask the agent about microservices design topics such as service boundaries, communication, data management, or resilience.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by davila7/claude-code-templates in cli-tool/components/skills/development/microservices-patterns/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Master microservices architecture patterns including service boundaries, inter-service communication, data management, and resilience patterns for building distributed systems.

Use this skill when

  • Decomposing monoliths into microservices
  • Designing service boundaries and contracts
  • Implementing inter-service communication
  • Managing distributed data and transactions
  • Building resilient distributed systems
  • Implementing service discovery and load balancing
  • Designing event-driven architectures

Do not use this skill when

  • The system is small enough for a modular monolith
  • You need a quick prototype without distributed complexity
  • There is no operational support for distributed systems

Instructions

  1. Identify domain boundaries and ownership for each service.
  2. Define contracts, data ownership, and communication patterns.
  3. Plan resilience, observability, and deployment strategy.
  4. Provide migration steps and operational guardrails.
