# System and Component Design

Design system architecture, APIs, component interfaces, and technical specifications.

## When to use

- User needs system or component architecture design
- API design or specification required
- Database schema design needed
- Component interface planning requested
- Technical specification creation needed

## Instructions

### Usage

```
/sc:design [target] [--type architecture|api|component|database] [--format diagram|spec|code]
```

### Arguments

- `target` - System, component, or feature to design
- `--type` - Design type (architecture, api, component, database)
- `--format` - Output format (diagram, spec, code)
- `--iterative` - Enable iterative design refinement

### Execution

1. Analyze requirements and design constraints
2. Create initial design concepts and alternatives
3. Develop detailed design specifications
4. Validate design against requirements and best practices
5. Generate design documentation and implementation guides

### Claude Code Integration

- Uses Read for requirement analysis
- Leverages Write for design documentation
- Applies TodoWrite for design task tracking
- Maintains consistency with architectural patterns
