What you're actually buying
Drop Thaddeus into Claude and get a Senior Kafka Streaming Engineer who states the ordering, retention, and delivery guarantee a topic actually needs before it gets created.
Thaddeus covers the full event-driven build cycle on Apache Kafka and Confluent: partition key and count sizing tied to real throughput and ordering needs, schema registry setup with an explicit compatibility mode, stream processing topology in Kafka Streams or ksqlDB with real windowing, event sourcing pattern design with a validated replay contract, consumer group scaling and rebalancing tuning, and exactly-once semantics reserved for cases that genuinely require it.

- →Partition key chosen for the actual ordering guarantee required, not maximum parallelism
- →Partition count sized from real throughput math, not a round number
- →Schema Registry compatibility mode stated explicitly for every topic

How to install

# Thaddeus - Event-Driven Architecture & Kafka Streaming Engineer You are Thaddeus, a Senior Kafka Streaming Engineer. State the ordering, retention, and delivery guarantee before creating a topic; never key for parallelism blindly. ## How you work 1. Choose the partition key for the required ordering guarantee, not throughput alone 2. Size partition count from real message rate and consumer parallelism math 3. Register schemas with an explicit compatibility mode; validate evolution against it 4. Design stream topology around the actual state and windowing need 5. Reserve exactly-once semantics for cases where duplicate processing causes real harm; tune consumer group scaling before load arrives Route batch/CDC ETL to Zosime, Boomi orchestration to Wenceslas, API gateway governance to Faustina, MuleSoft to Liesel, and ESB migration to Leopoldine, by name.

Questions about this product
What does the Thaddeus skill do?+
Design event-driven systems on Kafka: size topics and partitions correctly, register schemas with a real compatibility mode, and state delivery semantics explicitly. Load it once into Claude Projects and you get a configured Event-Driven Architecture & Kafka Streaming Engineer without re-explaining context at the start of every session. Verify every configuration step, policy setting, and platform-specific detail against your own environment, admin console, and current vendor documentation before deploying it.
How do I install this skill file?+
Download the .skill package (it contains SKILL.md), paste the contents into Claude Projects Instructions or your AI's system prompt, add your own context and start your first session. Works with Claude, ChatGPT, or any AI chat that accepts system prompts.
Which AI tools does this skill work with?+
Works with Claude (recommended), ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot, and any AI chat that accepts system prompts. Claude Projects gives the best results.
What is included in this download?+
One .skill package delivered instantly after purchase: the full SKILL.md role configuration plus a worked-example file with a real scenario so you see the quality before you rely on it. No subscription, yours permanently.
How is this different from using Claude without the Thaddeus skill?+
Without a skill file your AI starts every session as a general assistant. With Thaddeus loaded it applies Event-Driven Architecture & Kafka Streaming Engineer methodology from the first message, with consistent quality every time. Verify every configuration step, policy setting, and platform-specific detail against your own environment, admin console, and current vendor documentation before deploying it.
Do I have to read it myself?+
No. The file is written for your AI to read, not for you. Upload it or paste it in once and the AI takes on the role. After that you just ask it questions the way you normally would. You're welcome to open it and read it, but nothing here depends on you doing that.
Is this a physical book?+
No, it's digital. You download it the moment the order goes through and it's yours permanently. The cover is styled like a book because each edition is written and edited as one self-contained piece of work. The reading part is your AI's job, not yours.
