Creates new Architecture Decision Record (ADR) documents for significant architectural changes using a consistent template and repository-aware naming and storage guidance. Use when a user or agent decides on an architectural change, needs to document technical rationale, or wants to add a new ADR to the project history.

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

# ADR Drafting

Creates new Architecture Decision Record (ADR) documents for major architectural choices so teams can keep a clear history of why important technical decisions were made.

## Overview

This skill helps create a new ADR from discovery to final markdown file. It confirms the decision details, inspects the repository for any existing ADR conventions, and drafts a new ADR with the standard sections `Title`, `Status`, `Context`, `Decision`, and `Consequences`.

When the repository does not already have an ADR convention, default to storing ADRs in `docs/architecture/adr` and use a zero-padded filename such as `0001-use-postgresql-for-primary-database.md`.

See `references/template.md` for the default ADR template and `references/examples.md` for example ADRs and naming patterns.

## When to Use

Use this skill when a user or agent has decided on a meaningful architectural change and needs to document the rationale, chosen direction, and trade-offs in a new Architecture Decision Record. It fits requests such as creating an ADR, documenting an architecture decision, writing a decision record, or preserving the project history behind an important technical choice.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit/adr-drafting@sha256:ba80d9545b377781

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260322.cb27ddd, 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.
