Keep durable architecture decisions and product specs in sync with the work happening in the conversation. AUTO-INVOKE when a request establishes or changes a long-lived architectural boundary, public contract, data ownership rule, operational invariant, or repo-wide convention with meaningful alternatives. Also invoke on explicit triggers: "record this", "create an ADR", "document this decision", "update the spec", "ADR for X". Run BEFORE coding when the decision is upfront, or AFTER landing wh

Record Knowledge

Record significant decisions for future work. Reconcile the affected requirements and system designs after the decision.

Record a decision

Create an ADR when all statements are true:

The choice creates a durable constraint, boundary, contract, ownership rule, operational invariant, or repository-wide convention.
Meaningful alternatives have different trade-offs.
Future work must follow or supersede the choice.
A requirement, system design, test, or work order does not preserve enough rationale.

Do not create an ADR for a simple feature, local refactor, routine dependency change, plan sequence, or temporary migration step.

ADR procedure

Choose an ID in the form YYYY-MM-DD-short-title.
Make sure that docs/decisions/<id>.md does not exist.
Create the ADR with the template below.
Run python3 scripts/list-docs.py decisions --format paths to confirm the new ADR is discoverable. Do not edit a catalog row.
Reconcile affected specifications.

Existing numeric ADR IDs remain valid. Do not rename them.

# ADR-YYYY-MM-DD-short-title: Short title

**Status:** accepted | superseded by <adr-id> | deprecated
**Date:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Area:** backend | frontend | infra | protocol | workflow

## Context

Explain the situation and the need for a decision.
