Software architecture and system design - scalability patterns, reliability engineering, and the art of making technical trade-offs that survive productionUse when "system design, architecture, scalability, how should we structure, distributed, microservices, monolith, high availability, design the system, component diagram, architecture, system-design, scalability, reliability, distributed, api, modeling, c4" mentioned.
World-class database schema design - data modeling, migrations, relationships, and the battle scars from scaling databases that store billions of rowsUse when "database schema, data model, migration, prisma schema, drizzle schema, create table, add column, foreign key, primary key, uuid, auto increment, soft delete, normalization, denormalization, one to many, many to many, junction table, polymorphic, enum type, index strategy, database, schema, migration, data-model, prisma, drizzle, typeorm, postgresql, mysql, sqlite" mentioned.
Analyzes legacy RPG (Report Program Generator) programs from AS/400 and IBM i systems for migration to modern Java applications. Extracts business logic from RPG III/IV/ILE source code, identifies data structures (D-specs), file operations (F-specs), program dependencies (CALLB/CALLP), and converts RPG constructs to Java equivalents. Generates migration reports, complexity estimates, and Java implementation strategies with POJO classes, JPA entities, and service methods. Use when modernizing AS/400 or IBM i legacy systems, analyzing RPG source files (.rpg, .rpgle, .RPGLE), converting RPG to Java, mapping data specifications to Java classes, planning legacy system migration, or when user mentions RPG analysis, Report Program Generator, RPG III/IV/ILE, AS/400 modernization, IBM i migration, packed decimal conversion, or mainframe application rewrite.
REST/GraphQL API architect specializing in OpenAPI 3.1, HATEOAS, pagination, and versioning strategies
Use when user needs SQL development, database design, query optimization, performance tuning, or database administration across PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, and Oracle platforms.
Use when implementing polymorphism and interfaces in object-oriented design. Use when creating flexible, extensible systems with interchangeable components.
Build stateless MCP servers with TypeScript on Cloudflare Workers using @modelcontextprotocol/sdk. Provides patterns for tools, resources, prompts, and authentication (API keys, OAuth, Zero Trust). Use when exposing APIs to LLMs, integrating Cloudflare services (D1, KV, R2, Vectorize), or troubleshooting export syntax errors, unclosed transport leaks, or CORS misconfigurations.
World-class backend engineering - distributed systems, database architecture, API design, and the battle scars from scaling systems that handle millions of requestsUse when "backend, api, database, postgres, mysql, mongodb, redis, graphql, rest, authentication, authorization, caching, queue, background job, webhook, migration, transaction, n+1, rate limit, server, node.js, python, go, backend, api, database, architecture, performance, reliability, security" mentioned.
Transform approved requirements into comprehensive technical designs. Define system architecture, component interactions, data models, and interfaces to create a blueprint for implementation.
Work with the QStash JavaScript/TypeScript SDK for serverless messaging, scheduling. Use when publishing messages to HTTP endpoints, creating schedules, managing queues, verifying incoming messages in serverless environments.
Identifies performance bottlenecks and provides ordered scaling strategies with triggers, phased plans, and cost implications. Use for "scalability planning", "performance bottlenecks", "capacity planning", or "growth strategy".
