DVT ADR Author

Capture an architecture decision in DVT's standard ADR format.

When to use this skill

Use this skill when you need to:

  • Record a significant technical decision (framework, datastore, integration pattern).
  • Revisit or supersede a previous decision.

Format

Create docs/adr/NNNN-short-title.md with sections:

# NNNN. <Title>

- Status: Proposed | Accepted | Superseded by ADR-XXXX
- Date: YYYY-MM-DD
- Deciders: <names>

## Context
What problem/force is driving this decision?

## Options considered
1. <Option> — pros / cons
2. <Option> — pros / cons

## Decision
What we chose and why.

## Consequences
Trade-offs accepted, follow-ups, and what becomes easier/harder.

Rules

  • One decision per ADR; never edit an Accepted ADR's decision — supersede it with a new one.
  • Number sequentially, zero-padded to four digits.
