architectural-decision-record
From the author
Create, extract, or convert an ADR (architectural decision record) using the ADR template. Use when creating new ADRs, extracting an ADR from existing documentation, converting a document into an ADR, recording an architecture or design decision, or updating the status of an existing ADR. Does not create or update enforceable coding standards or conventions — use coding-standard for that. Does not write feature or system documentation — use project-documentation instead.

- record-a-decisioninkeep/open-knowledgeRecords an architecture decision as a Nygard/MADR-shaped ADR under decisions/ — capturing the context that forced the choice, the options weighed, the decision itself, and its consequences in both directions, plus the supersedes chain that keeps a decision log honest. Read when asked to record an architecture decision, write an ADR, log the decision we made, document why we chose X over Y, capture this decision for the record, or supersede an old decision with a new one. Do NOT read to frame a proposal or explore an idea not yet decided (frame-a-proposal), to write a spec or implementation plan (write-a-spec), to write an incident postmortem (write-a-postmortem), or to judge whether a design is sound (review-a-design). This skill records a decision already made; it does not make one.Design★ 4.7K
