Creates a NEW Architectural Decision Record (ADR) documenting a specific architectural decision. Use when the user requests "Create ADR for [topic]", "Document decision about [topic]", "Write ADR for [choice]", or when documenting technology choices, patterns, or architectural approaches. Do NOT use for reviews (use architecture-review or specialist-review), checking existing ADRs (use architecture-status), or general documentation.
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
# Create Architectural Decision Record (ADR) Creates structured ADRs following the framework's template. ## Process ### 1. Gather Context Ask if needed: - What decision is being made? - What problem does it solve? - What alternatives were considered? - What are the trade-offs? Then read `.architecture/principles.md` if it exists. The decision is written against it in step 6. ### 2. Generate ADR Number ```bash # Find highest ADR number ls .architecture/decisions/adrs/ | grep -E "^ADR-[0-9]+" | sed 's/ADR-//' | sed 's/-.*//' | sort -n | tail -1 ``` New ADR = next sequential number (e.g., if highest is 003, create 004) ### 3. Validate and Sanitize Input **Security**: Sanitize user input to prevent path traversal and injection: - Remove or replace: `..`, `/`, `\`, null bytes, control characters - Convert to lowercase kebab-case: spaces → hyphens, remove special chars - Limit length: max 80 characters for filename portion - Validate result: ensure filename contains only [a-z0-9-] ### 4. Create Filename Format: `ADR-XXX-kebab-case-title.md` Examples: - `ADR-001-use-react-for-frontend.md` - `ADR-002-choose-postgresql-database.md` …

How to install
mdr add codenamev/ai-software-architect/create-adr@sha256:25883c991dda9036The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.4801b19, 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.
