Cloud Design Patterns

Use proven distributed-systems patterns to choose safer architectures and surface trade-offs early.

• Leverage native parallel subagent dispatch and 200k+ context windows where available.

When to Use

Use symptom -> action triggers: when one matches, apply this skill and verify with the protocol below.

• You are designing or reviewing a cloud or distributed-system architecture.
• A workload has reliability, latency, scaling, messaging, migration, or security concerns.
• You need to shortlist patterns before writing an ADR, design doc, or implementation plan.
• You want a technology-agnostic pattern discussion before choosing platform services.
