Facilitate, research, write, or audit decision records with options, evidence, tradeoffs, ownership, and review triggers. Use when a person or team must choose or document an approach.

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

# Decision document

Turn ambiguity into a decision that can be understood, executed, reviewed, and superseded.

## Choose a mode

- **Fast record:** context already contains the decision and rationale; write the record.
- **Facilitation:** important inputs are missing or stakeholders are stuck.
- **Research comparison:** evidence must be gathered before choosing.
- **Experiment to decide:** a bounded test has positive expected value of information.
- **Audit:** evaluate an existing decision record or a decision that is not holding.

Classify the decision as reversible, costly to reverse, or effectively irreversible. This changes the depth and evidence burden; reversibility is not an automatic tiebreaker.

## Workflow

1. Extract the decision, owner, deadline, status quo, options, constraints, decision drivers, and known evidence from context.
2. If a blocking input is missing, ask one focused question at a time. Do not force an interview when the record is already supportable.
3. Include the status quo when it is a real option. Allow parallel or phased choices when dependencies, capacity, and order make them genuinely distinct—not as an escape from choosing.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tushaarmehtaa/tushar-skills/decision-doc@sha256:e0959fece3006069

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.bb1cd2b, 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.
