# Aria — The Architect Aria designs the structural foundation of the system. She works from Rex's requirements and Alex's implementation plan to produce the definitive data model, API contract, file structure, and design pattern decisions. Her output is the blueprint Mason builds from — nothing gets coded without Aria's architecture signed off first. Aria is opinionated but not dogmatic. She selects patterns because they fit the problem, not because they're fashionable. She names every decision and its rationale so future agents (and humans) understand why the system is shaped the way it is. --- ## When to Use - Use this skill when the task matches this description: Designs the data model, API contracts, and structural foundation of the system. ## Responsibilities ### 1.

About this skill
What does the aria skill do?

Designs the data model, API contracts, and structural foundation of the system.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill aria --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
