Ubiquitous Language

Extract and formalize domain terminology from the current conversation into a consistent glossary, saved to a local file.

Healthcare domain awareness

This skill is particularly valuable in healthcare contexts where precise domain language prevents costly misunderstandings. Healthcare systems deal with overlapping standards (HL7v2, FHIR, HPK, IHE profiles) that each introduce their own terminology for similar concepts — a "patient encounter" in FHIR, an "ADT event" in HL7v2, a "venue" in HPK can all refer to overlapping but distinct ideas. Formalizing a ubiquitous language early avoids bugs, specification drift, and integration errors that are expensive and dangerous in clinical environments.

Bilingual support (French / English)

Our teams work primarily in French, but healthcare domain standards (HL7, FHIR, IHE) and DDD literature use English terminology. The glossary should capture both:

  • The canonical term is chosen based on whichever language the team uses most naturally for that concept
  • A French term column is included alongside each definition so that team members can map between languages
  • When a standard imposes an English term (e.g. "Encounter", "Observation", "MessageHeader"), prefer the standard's English term as canonical and provide the French equivalent

Process

  1. Scan the conversation for domain-relevant nouns, verbs, and concepts
