N.°02 — Architecture Studio
Architecture Studio
Agents, skills, and workflow plugins for architecture and design — running inside Claude Code.
02 What it is
Type a slash command. The system handles the rest.
Architecture Studio is a collection of AI agents, skills, and workflow plugins for architecture and design professionals. It runs inside Claude Code — install a plugin, get its skills and agents. No API keys, no configuration.
03 How it's organized
i.
Agents
Domain specialists that orchestrate multiple skills end to end. An FF&E Designer researches products, builds schedules, and manages procurement. A Sustainability Specialist pulls EPDs, calculates embodied carbon, and checks certifications.
ii.
Skills
Single-purpose commands. /product-research modern task chair under $1500 searches product sources and writes structured options. /zoning-analysis 123 Main St pulls FAR, setbacks, and use groups for a parcel.
iii.
Plugins
Curated bundles of skills organized by workflow stage — due diligence, programming, FF&E, specifications. Install the one your project needs.
iv.
Project memory
Every project keeps a dossier — PROJECT.md holds the facts (site, zoning, program, code), decisions/ holds the reasoning as numbered decision records. Plain files in the project folder, shared however the project already is.
