Setup Architecture-as-Code

Establish architecture-as-code practice using C4 modeling and Structurizr DSL.

When to Use

After running bootstrap-project skill
When establishing architecture documentation for a project
When migrating from diagram-based to code-based architecture documentation
When you need version-controlled, validated architecture models

What is Architecture-as-Code?

Architecture-as-Code treats architecture documentation like source code:

Traditional Diagrams	Architecture-as-Code
Draw in GUI tools	Define in text/DSL
Manual updates	Automated validation
Binary files (PNG, VSDX)	Text files (version control friendly)
Diagrams diverge from reality	Single source of truth
Hard to review changes	PR-reviewable changes
No validation	Syntax + semantic validation

Implementation Stack:

Modeling Approach: C4 Model (Context, Container, Component, Code)
Definition Language: Structurizr DSL
Validation & Inspection: structurizr/structurizr (consolidated image, replaces deprecated structurizr/cli and structurizr/lite)
Visualization: structurizr/structurizr local subcommand or Structurizr Cloud

Required Inputs

Project/System name
System description (1-2 sentences)
Key users/personas (who interacts with the system)
External systems (what the system integrates with)
Main containers (applications, databases, services)
Technology stack (languages, frameworks, databases)

C4 Model Overview

The C4 model provides four levels of abstraction (zoom levels):

Level	Name	Purpose	Audience
1	System Context	System in its environment	Everyone
2	Container	Deployable units	Technical staff
3	Component	Internal structure	Developers
4	Code	Class/module level	Developers (often generated)

Key Principle: Start with Level 1-2, add Level 3 only when needed. Level 4 is usually generated from code.

Workflow

Step 1: Create Directory Structure

mkdir -p architecture/shared
mkdir -p docs/architecture    # Structurizr-specific docs (h2-first, numbered files)
# Symlink so !adrs and !docs directives can reach docs/ from architecture/
ln -s ../docs architecture/docs

The symlink is required because Structurizr restricts !adrs and !docs paths to the same directory or subdirectories of the DSL file — it cannot traverse parent directories.

Why docs/architecture/ and not docs/explanation/? Structurizr silently strips h1 headings (it auto-generates h1 from the element name). Diátaxis docs use h1 as their title, so pointing !docs at a Diátaxis directory would lose those titles. Keep Structurizr docs in a dedicated directory with h2-first files.

Step 2: Create Workspace File

Create architecture/workspace.dsl:

workspace "[Project Name]" "[Brief description]" {

    !identifiers hierarchical
    !adrs docs/adr
    !docs docs/architecture

    model {
        # ===== USERS/ACTORS =====

        # ===== EXTERNAL SYSTEMS =====
        # externalSystem = softwareSystem "External System" "Description" "External"

        # ===== THE SYSTEM =====

    }

    views {
        # ===== SYSTEM CONTEXT VIEW =====
        systemContext system "SystemContext" {
            include *
            autoLayout
            description "System Context diagram showing [System Name] and its environment"
        }

        # ===== CONTAINER VIEW =====
        container system "Containers" {
            include *
            autoLayout

        }

        #     description "Component diagram for the API service"
        # }

        # ===== STYLES =====
        styles {
            element "Person" {
                shape Person
                background #08427B
                color #ffffff
            }
            element "Software System" {
                background #1168BD
                color #ffffff
            }
            element "External" {
                background #999999

                shape Robot

Step 3: Create Technology-Specific Templates

Elixir/Phoenix Template

workspace "[Project Name]" "Elixir/Phoenix application" {

    !identifiers hierarchical
    !adrs docs/adr
    !docs docs/architecture

    model {
        user = person "User" "Application user" "User"

        system = softwareSystem "[System Name]" "Phoenix web application" {

            phoenix = container "Phoenix Application" "Web application and API" "Elixir/Phoenix" "Web"

            liveview = container "LiveView UI" "Real-time user interface" "Phoenix LiveView" "Web"

            # If using Ash Framework:
            # ash = container "Ash Resources" "Domain logic and resources" "Ash Framework" "Component"

            postgres = container "PostgreSQL" "Primary data store" "PostgreSQL 16" "Database"

            # Optional: Background jobs
            # oban = container "Oban Workers" "Background job processing" "Oban" "Worker"
        }

        user -> system.liveview "Uses" "HTTPS"
        system.liveview -> system.phoenix "LiveView connections" "WebSocket"
        system.phoenix -> system.postgres "Queries" "Ecto"
    }

            include *
            autoLayout
        }

        container system "Containers" {

        }

        styles {

                background #08427B
                color #ffffff
            }
            element "Software System" {
                background #6B4C9A
                color #ffffff
            }
            element "Container" {
                background #9B59B6

                background #336791
            }
            element "Web" {
                shape WebBrowser
            }
        }
    }
}

Python/FastAPI Template

workspace "[Project Name]" "Python FastAPI application" {

    !identifiers hierarchical
    !adrs docs/adr
    !docs docs/architecture

    model {
        user = person "User" "API consumer" "User"

        system = softwareSystem "[System Name]" "FastAPI service" {

            api = container "FastAPI Service" "REST API" "Python/FastAPI" "API"

            postgres = container "PostgreSQL" "Primary data store" "PostgreSQL 16" "Database"

        system.api -> system.postgres "Queries" "SQLAlchemy"
    }

    views {
        systemContext system "SystemContext" {
            include *
            autoLayout
        }

        container system "Containers" {
            include *
            autoLayout
        }

        styles {
            element "Person" {
                shape Person
                background #08427B
                color #ffffff
            }
            element "Software System" {
                background #306998
                color #ffffff
            }
            element "Container" {
                background #FFD43B
                color #000000
            }
            element "Database" {

            }
            element "API" {
                shape Hexagon
            }
        }
    }
}

Step 4: Create Model Overview

Create architecture/README.md:

# [Project Name] Architecture-as-Code

## What is Architecture-as-Code?

This project uses **Architecture-as-Code**: architecture models defined in text files (Structurizr DSL), version-controlled alongside source code, and validated automatically.

**Benefits**:
- **Version Control**: Architecture changes tracked in git history
- **Code Review**: Architecture changes reviewable in PRs
- **Validation**: Syntax and semantic errors caught automatically
- **Single Source of Truth**: Model generates diagrams, not vice versa
- **AI-Friendly**: Text-based format readable by AI assistants

## Model Structure

architecture/ ├── workspace.dsl # C4 model definition (THE source of truth) ├── shared/ # Shared DSL fragments (!include targets) │ └── _styles.dsl # Unified element/relationship styles ├── docs -> ../docs # Symlink (enables !adrs and !docs directives) ├── README.md # This file └── diagrams/ # Generated exports (optional, gitignored)


The `docs` symlink allows workspace files to use `!adrs docs/adr` and `!docs docs/architecture` — Structurizr requires these

# Setup Architecture-as-Code

Establish architecture-as-code practice using C4 modeling and Structurizr DSL.

## When to Use

- After running `bootstrap-project` skill
- When establishing architecture documentation for a project
- When migrating from diagram-based to code-based architecture documentation
- When you need version-controlled, validated architecture models

## What is Architecture-as-Code?

Architecture-as-Code treats architecture documentation like source code:

| Traditional Diagrams | Architecture-as-Code |
|---------------------|---------------------|
| Draw in GUI tools | Define in text/DSL |
| Manual updates | Automated validation |
| Binary files (PNG, VSDX) | Text files (version control friendly) |
| Diagrams diverge from reality | Single source of truth |
| Hard to review changes | PR-reviewable changes |
| No validation | Syntax + semantic validation |

**Implementation Stack**:
- **Modeling Approach**: C4 Model (Context, Container, Component, Code)
- **Definition Language**: Structurizr DSL
- **Validation & Inspection**: structurizr/structurizr (consolidated image, replaces deprecated `structurizr/cli` and `structurizr/lite`)
- **Visualization**: structurizr/structurizr `local` subcommand or Structurizr Cloud

## Required Inputs

1. **Project/System name**
2. **System description** (1-2 sentences)
3. **Key users/personas** (who interacts with the system)
4. **External systems** (what the system integrates with)
5. **Main containers** (applications, databases, services)
6. **Technology stack** (languages, frameworks, databases)

## C4 Model Overview

The C4 model provides four levels of abstraction (zoom levels):

| Level | Name | Purpose | Audience |
|-------|------|---------|----------|
| 1 | System Context | System in its environment | Everyone |
| 2 | Container | Deployable units | Technical staff |
| 3 | Component | Internal structure | Developers |
| 4 | Code | Class/module level | Developers (often generated) |

**Key Principle**: Start with Level 1-2, add Level 3 only when needed. Level 4 is usually generated from code.

## Workflow

### Step 1: Create Directory Structure

```bash
mkdir -p architecture/shared
mkdir -p docs/architecture    # Structurizr-specific docs (h2-first, numbered files)
# Symlink so !adrs and !docs directives can reach docs/ from architecture/
ln -s ../docs architecture/docs
```

The symlink is required because Structurizr restricts `!adrs` and `!docs` paths to the same directory or subdirectories of the DSL file — it cannot traverse parent directories.

**Why `docs/architecture/` and not `docs/explanation/`?** Structurizr silently strips h1 headings (it auto-generates h1 from the element name). Diátaxis docs use h1 as their title, so pointing `!docs` at a Diátaxis directory would lose those titles. Keep Structurizr docs in a dedicated directory with h2-first files.

### Step 2: Create Workspace File

Create `architecture/workspace.dsl`:

```dsl

### Step 3: Create Technology-Specific Templates

#### Elixir/Phoenix Template

```dsl

            # Optional: Background jobs
            # oban = container "Oban Workers" "Background job processing" "Oban" "Worker"
        }

        user -> system.liveview "Uses" "HTTPS"

### Step 4: Create Model Overview

Create `architecture/README.md`:

```markdown
# [Project Name] Architecture-as-Code

## What is Architecture-as-Code?

This project uses **Architecture-as-Code**: architecture models defined in text files (Structurizr DSL), version-controlled alongside source code, and validated automatically.

**Benefits**:
- **Version Control**: Architecture changes tracked in git history
- **Code Review**: Architecture changes reviewable in PRs
- **Validation**: Syntax and semantic errors caught automatically
- **Single Source of Truth**: Model generates diagrams, not vice versa
- **AI-Friendly**: Text-based format readable by AI assistants

## Model Structure

```
architecture/
├── workspace.dsl       # C4 model definition (THE source of truth)
├── shared/             # Shared DSL fragments (!include targets)
│   └── _styles.dsl     # Unified element/relationship styles
├── docs -> ../docs     # Symlink (enables !adrs and !docs directives)
├── README.md           # This file
└── diagrams/           # Generated exports (optional, gitignored)
```

The `docs` symlink allows workspace files to use `!adrs docs/adr` and `!docs docs/architecture` — Structurizr requires these

Open full audit

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
