Author a new ADR — record a DECISION (what the system must do, or how it is built) in a documentation-led repo. Picks the next contiguous number, chooses the shape (capability vs technology), fills the template, sets status Proposed, regenerates INDEX, updates domain READMEs, handles supersede/deprecate linkage, commits. Use when the user says "add an ADR", "new ADR", "record a decision", "create an architecture decision record", or invokes /new-adr. NOT for queueing a unit of work against an…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# new-adr Author one new ADR, consistent with this repo's conventions. ## Step 0 — Preconditions and context 1. Confirm the repo is bootstrapped: `AGENTS.md`, `CONVENTIONS.md`, and an `adr/` directory with at least `adr/0000-template.md` must exist. If not, stop and offer to run the **bootstrap** skill first. 2. Read `CONVENTIONS.md` to learn this repo's choices: the **ADR shape scheme** — a single shape, or two shapes (capability and technology) declared by a `shape:` field in each ADR's metadata block; there is no number boundary to read — status lifecycle, language mandate (if any), whether `domains/` groupings exist (and, if so, which domain this ADR belongs to — ask if it isn't obvious), the multi-agent mode, and the **artefact root** (default: repository root) — resolve `adr/` and `INDEX.md` against it (`AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` stay at the repo root). **Legacy range encoding.** A repo scaffolded before the shape became a declared field encodes it in the number instead — §ADR Shapes records a cutoff, or `adr/` holds a template numbered other than `0000` (e.g. `adr/0100-template.md`); either signal alone identifies …

How to install
mdr add evolvehq/docflow/new-adr@sha256:3b8ac8e05f48e599The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260915.4da3699, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
