Design scalable distributed systems using structured approaches for load balancing, caching, database scaling, and message queues. Use when the user mentions "system design", "scale this", "high availability", "rate limiter", or "design a URL shortener". Covers common system designs and back-of-the-envelope estimation. For data fundamentals, see ddia-systems. For resilience, see release-it.
Plan a sprint — scope work, estimate capacity, set goals, and draft a sprint plan. Use when kicking off a new sprint, sizing a backlog against team availability (accounting for PTO and meetings), deciding what's P0 vs. stretch, or handling carryover from the last sprint.
Use this skill when designing distributed systems, architecting scalable services, preparing for system design interviews, or making infrastructure decisions. Triggers on load balancing, CAP theorem, sharding, replication, caching strategies, message queues, microservices architecture, database selection, rate limiting, and any task requiring high-level system architecture decisions.
Plan a sprint with capacity estimation, story selection, dependency mapping, and risk identification. Use when preparing for sprint planning, estimating team capacity, selecting stories, or balancing sprint scope against velocity.
