proyecto26/system-design-skills

v0.1.0MIT

A divide-and-conquer wiki of system-design skills. Reason about a design problem one part at a time -- requirements, capacity, APIs, storage, caching, load balancing, messaging, consistency, resilience, delivery, and scaling -- each with generic recipes, cloud-provider variants (AWS/Azure/GCP/Temporal), explicit trade-offs, and failure-mode analysis. Optimizes for reasoning over memorized architectures.

content-delivery

This skill should be used when the user asks about a "CDN", "edge caching", "static asset delivery", "media / video delivery", "geo distribution of content" or "edge POP selection", "push vs pull CDN", "cache-control headers" / "TTL for static assets", "origin offload", or "origin shield". It gives the recipe for serving bytes from the edge close to users. Use it whenever a design serves images, video, JS/CSS, or downloads to a wide geography, or the origin is saturated by repeat reads of the same files, even if the user doesn't say "CDN".
