npx skills add https://github.com/404kidwiz/claude-supercode-skills --skill event-driven-architect- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads event-driven-architect automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

Event-Driven Architect
Purpose
Provides expertise in designing and implementing event-driven architectures. Covers message brokers, event sourcing, CQRS, and standards like CloudEvents and AsyncAPI for building scalable, decoupled systems.
When to Use
- Designing event-driven architectures
- Implementing message queues and brokers
- Building event sourcing systems
- Implementing CQRS patterns
- Creating AsyncAPI specifications
- Designing event mesh topologies
- Building asynchronous microservices
Quick Start
Invoke this skill when:
- Designing event-driven architectures
- Implementing message queues and brokers
- Building event sourcing systems
- Implementing CQRS patterns
- Creating AsyncAPI specifications
Do NOT invoke when:
- Building synchronous REST APIs (use api-designer)
- Setting up Kafka infrastructure (use data-engineer)
- Building workflow orchestration (use workflow-orchestrator)
- Designing GraphQL APIs (use graphql-architect)
Decision Framework
Message Broker Selection:
├── High throughput, streaming → Kafka
├── Flexible routing → RabbitMQ
├── Cloud-native, serverless → EventBridge, Pub/Sub
├── Simple queuing → SQS, Redis Streams
└── Enterprise integration → Azure Service Bus
Pattern Selection:
├── Audit/replay needed → Event Sourcing
├── Read/write separation → CQRS
├── Simple async → Pub/Sub
├── Guaranteed delivery → Transactional outbox
└── Complex routing → Message router
Core Workflows
1. Event-Driven System Design
- Identify domain events
- Define event schemas (CloudEvents)
- Choose message broker
- Design topic/queue structure
- Define consumer groups
- Plan dead letter handling
- Document with AsyncAPI
2. Event Sourcing Implementation
- Define aggregate boundaries
- Design event types
- Implement event store
- Build projection handlers
- Create read models
- Handle schema evolution
- Plan snapshot strategy
3. AsyncAPI Specification
- Define servers and protocols
- Describe channels (topics/queues)
- Define message schemas
- Document operations (pub/sub)
- Add security schemes
- Generate documentation
- Enable code generation
Best Practices
- Use CloudEvents format for interoperability
- Design idempotent consumers
- Implement dead letter queues
- Version event schemas carefully
- Monitor consumer lag
- Plan for at-least-once delivery
Anti-Patterns
| Anti-Pattern | Problem | Correct Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Synchronous over async | Defeats purpose | Use proper patterns |
| No idempotency | Duplicate processing | Design idempotent handlers |
| Ignoring order | Data consistency issues | Partition by key if needed |
| Huge events | Network overhead | Small events, fetch details |
| No schema evolution | Breaking changes | Versioning strategy |
