ADR-NNNN: Decision title¶
Status: Proposed | Accepted | Superseded by ADR-NNNN (link it once it exists) Date: YYYY-MM-DD Issue/PR: #NNNN (if applicable)
Context¶
What is the problem or forcing function? What constraints (technical, product,
team) shaped the options? Link to the design docs in docs/ that motivated
this rather than re-deriving them here.
Decision¶
The choice made, stated plainly in one or two sentences. Not a survey of options — the actual call.
Consequences¶
What this buys us, and what it costs. Include the things that get harder, not just the things that get easier — an ADR that only lists upsides wasn't honestly argued.
Alternatives considered¶
- Option A — why it was rejected.
- Option B — why it was rejected.
Revisit when¶
The condition under which this decision should be reopened (a scale threshold, a new requirement, an upstream change). If there's no realistic condition, say "no planned revisit."
