What problem does it solve?

The Elixir-thinking skill solves cognitive friction when designing Elixir applications by guiding developers away from OOP patterns toward idiomatic Elixir design.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mental models: Distinguish modules, data, and processes, and apply the Iron Law NO PROCESS WITHOUT A RUNTIME REASON.
  • Guidance on architecture: Decide when to use patterns like behaviours, protocols, and pattern matching; determine when a GenServer or supervisor is warranted.
  • Refactoring scenarios: Convert a monolithic module into smaller, cohesive modules and use idiomatic data structures like structs.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to refactor a provided Elixir module into idiomatic Elixir by applying pattern matching, separating concerns with modules, and deciding when a GenServer or supervisor is warranted.
