It is a methodology for modeling complex software by focusing on business domains, defining boundaries (Bounded Contexts), and ensuring technical models align with business language.

Can this skill help migrate a monolith?

Yes, it is ideal for identifying natural seams and boundaries within a legacy system to plan a transition to microservices or modular monoliths.

How does this skill help with stakeholder interviews?

It provides targeted question sets for Product Managers, Domain Experts, and End Users to extract critical business rules and workflow requirements.

When should I use the ddd-strategic-design skill?

Use it during the planning or discovery phase of a project, or when team members are using the same terms to mean different things in the codebase.
