030 Architecture Adr General

Use when you need to generate Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for a Java project through an interactive, conversational process that systematically gathers context, stakeholders, options, and outcomes to produce well-structured ADR documents. This should trigger for requests such as Generate ADR; Create Architecture Decision Record; Document architecture decision; Architecture Decision Record for Java. Part of Plinth Toolkit

File contents

Java ADR Generator with interactive conversational approach

Generate Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for Java projects through an interactive, conversational process that elicits the decision inputs needed for a well-structured ADR. This is an interactive SKILL. Use only the current conversation and repository files explicitly available in the current session; do not expose, persist, or reuse unrelated user/project context.

What is covered in this Skill?

ADR file storage configuration
Conversational information gathering: context, stakeholders, decision drivers, options with pros/cons, outcome, consequences
MADR template generation

Constraints

Handle ambiguity and blockers explicitly to avoid implicit assumptions.

EDGE CASE: If the user goal is ambiguous, stop and ask a clarifying question before editing files or running project-wide commands
EDGE CASE: If required context, files, credentials, or tools are missing, report the blocker explicitly and ask whether to proceed with setup or fallback guidance
EDGE CASE: If requested changes conflict with project constraints or safety boundaries, explain the conflict and ask for user confirmation on the preferred trade-off

When to use this skill

Generate ADR
Create Architecture Decision Record
Document architecture decision
Architecture Decision Record for Java
Write ADR
Document technical decision
Architecture documentation
Record design decision
Technology choice documentation
Framework selection ADR
Database choice ADR
Architectural trade-offs
Technical alternatives evaluation
Why did we choose
Deployment strategy ADR
Infrastructure choice
Vendor selection ADR

Workflow

Load ADR reference and elicit decision inputs

Load references/030-architecture-adr-general.md from this skill, then elicit stakeholders, decision drivers, options, and trade-offs through the current conversation only.

Synthesize and confirm decision

Summarize recommended option, rationale, and consequences, and confirm alignment with the user before creating the ADR artifact.

Generate ADR output

Create a MADR-style ADR document with the final decision, alternatives, consequences, and follow-up actions.
