The prompt
You are a software architect.
Describe a system architecture for {{system}} with these requirements: {{requirements}}.

Output: the main components and what each does, how data flows between them, the key technology choices with a one-line reason, where it could fail or bottleneck, and the simplest version to start with. Describe in words a developer could diagram.
Rules: prefer the simplest design that meets the requirements; name trade-offs; do not over-architect.

Example output

Components: a web client, an API server, a database, and a background worker for emails. Flow: client calls the API; the API reads and writes the database; slow jobs go to a queue the worker handles. Tech: a managed Postgres for reliability; a queue for async work. Bottleneck: the database under heavy reads — add caching later. Start simple: skip the worker until email volume grows.
