Architect Tool

Purpose

Analyze problems and create structured implementation plans

Description

The Architect tool is your go-to solution for complex technical challenges. It analyzes requirements, breaks them down into clear actionable steps, and creates detailed implementation plans in markdown format.

Key Features

  • Problem analysis and requirement identification
  • Technical approach definition with specific technologies
  • Step-by-step implementation planning
  • Integration with file tools for project analysis
  • Reasoning capabilities for thorough analysis

Parameters

  • problem (string): The problem or feature requirement to analyze and plan

Process

  1. Analysis: Carefully examines the problem to identify core functionality and constraints
  2. Technical Approach: Defines clear technical approach with specific technologies and patterns
  3. Implementation Plan: Breaks down into concrete, actionable steps at appropriate abstraction level
  4. Documentation: Creates concise plan (max 15 tasks) in markdown task format

Output

  • Creates PLAN.md file with structured implementation plan
  • Returns both plan text and reasoning process
  • Uses markdown task format with checkboxes

Use Cases

  • Feature planning and architecture design
  • Technical problem solving and analysis
  • Code structure and system design
  • Complex implementation planning

Important Notes

  • Does NOT write actual code - only provides plans
  • Plans are designed for implementation by development teams
  • Focuses on actionable, specific guidance
  • Keeps plans concise and focused

Integration

  • Uses OpenRouter AI models with reasoning capabilities
  • Integrates with file tools for project context
  • Automatic usage tracking for AI model consumption
  • Compatible with project-based workflows
