## ADR Conventions

**Naming**: `YYYY-MM-DD-slug.md` (no sequential numbers)

**Format**: [MADR 4.0](https://github.com/adr/madr)

**Creation**: ADRs are created automatically by `/itp:go` preflight phase.

## Design Specs

**Location**: `docs/design/YYYY-MM-DD-slug/spec.md`

**Relationship**: partial, not 1:1 — 27 of 45 ADRs have a design spec. The shortfall is structural rather than a backlog: `/itp:go` preflight creates an ADR automatically for every change, while a design spec is written only when an implementation needs one. Do not read a missing spec as an omission to fix.

**Content**: Implementation details, code snippets, file modifications.

## Terminology Enforcement

CLAUDE.md files are linted for consistent terminology via Vale hooks:

- **SSoT**: `~/.claude/docs/GLOSSARY.md` (canonical term definitions)
- **Hook chain**: PreToolUse rejects edits with violations; PostToolUse shows informational warnings
- **Configuration**: `~/.claude/.vale.ini` (global) or per-project `.vale.ini`

Full details: [itp-hooks CLAUDE.md](../plugins/itp-hooks/docs/vale-terminology-enforcement.md)

## Toolchain

**Bun-first** for JavaScript globals. See [Root CLAUDE.md](../CLAUDE.md#development-toolchain).
