Build and maintain technology radars for adoption, trial, assessment, and hold decisions, and choose proportionate architecture-governance paths for technology portfolios. Use when governing technology choices, build-versus-buy decisions, architecture standards, exceptions, or engineering portfolio risk. Do not use for enterprise capability or target-state architecture, writing ADRs, implementing systems, security engineering, or operational incident/runbook work.

What this skill does
Technology Radar CTO methodology for making technology decisions, governing architecture, measuring engineering effectiveness, managing technical debt, and operating an innovation pipeline. These frameworks help a CTO balance short-term delivery velocity with long-term platform health. When Not to Use Route enterprise capability maps, operating-model design, and current/target-state roadmaps to a human enterprise-architecture owner; no current catalog skill owns that workflow. This skill stays focused on technology portfolio posture and governance mechanics. Route the durable record of one consequential decision to adr-authoring; use this skill to choose the governance path and connect the decision to standards or radar feedback. Route system design and code changes to the relevant engineering skill, security requirements and threat modeling to secure-software-engineering, and live operations or SLO work to site-reliability-engineering.
