Architecting Python Changes

Prerequisites

This skill extends myai's architecting-changes. Load that first. using-my-skills and engineering-principles are assumed already loaded via myai bootstrap.

For the general architecture decision framework (boundaries, layers, wrappers, reusable cores, composition roots, framework choices), see myai's architecting-changes. This skill adds Python-specific routing: which Python skills and docs to consult for different architecture questions, Python-specific heuristics, and common Python architecture mistakes.

This skill is the first stop for non-trivial Python architecture decisions. It is both a compact guide and a router to deeper project docs and domain skills.

Default Approach

Follow the 6-step flow in myai's architecting-changes (classify → find change axis → identify question → choose boundary → route → continue). Then use the Python-specific router below to find the right Python skill for your domain.
