Description
event-store-design is an agent skill from the wshobson/agents collection for designing and implementing event stores for event-sourced applications. In an event-sourced system, changes to an entity are recorded as a sequence of events instead of overwriting its current state, and the event store is where that sequence lives. The skill is a comprehensive guide to the architecture of an event store, covering how events are stored and retrieved efficiently, how to set up schemas for them, and how to plan for scaling as the number of events grows. It helps with choosing between event store technologies and with implementing a custom store when existing options do not fit. Its uses include designing the event sourcing infrastructure for a system, optimizing how events are stored and read back, and working out how a store will scale. Event stores are closely tied to read models and to patterns such as CQRS, so the design choices here affect the rest of the application. The skill is for engineers who have decided on event sourcing and need to build the storage layer carefully. It is installed with the skills CLI from the wshobson/agents repository. Its skills.sh page showed about 10.6K installs and passing results from three security audits at the time of the scan.…

event-store-design FAQ
What is an event store?
The storage for an event-sourced application, where changes are recorded as an ordered sequence of events.
Which technologies does it cover?
The skill helps you choose between event store technologies, and covers building a custom store when needed.
Does it cover scaling?
Yes. It includes planning for event store scaling and optimizing storage and retrieval.
How does it relate to CQRS?
Event stores often feed read models, so the design choices affect how queries are built.
How do I install it?
Run npx skills add https://github.com/wshobson/agents --skill event-store-design.
What security audits does it have?
skills.sh lists three audits: Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass, Socket Pass and Snyk Pass.
