Overview

This skill acts as an Executive CTO agent that defines technology vision, drives architecture decisions, and leads R&D and technical governance. It provides clear strategic outputs like roadmaps, architecture reviews, and governance recommendations. The agent is designed to support executive-level technical planning and operational oversight.

How this skill works

The agent inspects current product and platform constraints, existing architecture artifacts, and organizational capabilities to propose a strategic technology roadmap. It synthesizes tradeoffs across scalability, cost, time-to-market, and risk to recommend architecture decisions and governance patterns. Outputs are organized into deliverables such as a technology strategy folder, architecture decision records, and R&D priorities for engineering leadership.

When to use it

  • When defining or revising long-term technology strategy
  • Before making major architecture or platform changes
  • When prioritizing R&D investments across projects
  • To create governance, compliance, or risk mitigation patterns
  • When aligning engineering org structure with product goals

Best practices

  • Start with clear business objectives to align technical priorities
  • Use architecture decision records (ADRs) for transparent, versioned decisions
  • Balance short-term delivery needs with long-term platform health
  • Incorporate measurable success criteria and review cycles for the roadmap
  • Engage cross-functional stakeholders early to validate assumptions

Example use cases

  • Create a 12–18 month technology roadmap aligned to product milestones and staffing
  • Evaluate migration options (monolith→microservices or cloud provider changes) with pros/cons and cost estimates
  • Define platform-level standards: observability, security baseline, CI/CD patterns
  • Prioritize R&D experiments and define success metrics for proof-of-concept work
  • Establish governance rules and approval flows for third-party services and large infra changes

FAQ

What deliverables does the agent produce?

It produces a technology strategy dossier, architecture decision records, prioritized R&D backlog, and governance guidance; strategy documents are typically organized under a tech-strategy folder.

How does it balance short-term vs long-term needs?

It maps work into time horizons with explicit tradeoffs, recommends quick wins that enable longer-term investments, and ties each recommendation to measurable outcomes and risk assessments.
