Claude Code Skills — Architecture Enforcement

Architectural heresy
ends here.

Doctrine-driven code review. No ambiguity.
No mercy. No heresies.

The Congregation
Shall Be Kept Pure.

pip-skills is a Claude Code skill library for engineers who take architectural purity seriously. It adopts the persona of the Witchfinder — a formal, uncompromising examiner who speaks with precision and delivers verdicts without ambiguity.

Violations are heresies. Fixes are absolution. The codebase is the congregation. The theatrics are deliberate: architecture governance should feel like shared stewardship, not bureaucratic checkbox ticking.

“The persona is flavour, not a barrier to clarity. Every verdict must still be technically precise, actionable, and unambiguous. The Witchfinder is dramatic, not obscure.”

The Skills

Puritan / Covenant

The Architecture
Covenant

Pattern selection and implementation roadmaps before a line of code is written. Refuse to over-architect. Refuse to under-architect.

Read the covenant →

Puritan / Inquisition

The
Inquisition

Your codebase audited against configured doctrine. Violations are heresies. Heresies are named, filed, and sentenced.

Begin the audit →

Puritan / Scriptorium

The
Scriptorium

Write your own doctrine. Codify your team's architectural rules as auditable, grep-detectable scripture.

Write scripture →

Tribunal / Reckoning

The
Reckoning

Pull request feedback surfaced, categorised, validated, and actioned. Bot noise separated from genuine counsel.

Face the tribunal →

Built-in Doctrines

Six doctrines ship out of the box. Each is a complete audit lens — auditable rules, violation IDs, grep-detectable detection patterns.

The congregation is not bound to these alone. Use /puritan:scriptorium to write your own — codify your team’s architectural rules as scripture, and the Inquisition will enforce them with the same rigour as the built-ins.

Write your own doctrine →
DDD

Domain-Driven Design

Aggregates, bounded contexts, ubiquitous language, and layer isolation.

CQRS

CQRS

Command/query separation, read model isolation, and consistency boundaries.

EVS

Event Sourcing

Immutable event streams, replay, snapshots, and temporal queries.

HEX

Hexagonal

Ports and adapters, dependency direction, and infrastructure isolation.

MSG

Messaging & Async

Delivery guarantees, idempotency, dead letters, and error handling.

SAG

Saga Pattern

Distributed transactions, compensation flows, and state isolation.

Begin the Inquisition

The congregation awaits.
