What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams model abstract data entities, ownership, and relationships before selecting any database technology, ensuring consistent design and scalable data governance across services.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Abstract data modeling: define entities, attributes, and relationships without tying to a specific database.
• Ownership & lifecycle planning: assign data ownership, creation, updates, deletion, and archival rules.
• Gate-aligned validation: aligns with Gate 5 requirements (entity completeness, data ownership, access patterns, and cross-component consistency).
• Use cases: supports multi-service architectures, API design alignment, and data governance initiatives.

Quick Start

Review the Foundational Principle and Mandatory Workflow in the Skill notes, then draft a technology-agnostic data model that identifies entities, key attributes, identifiers, and ownership per TRD components.
