ADR

An architecture decision record states one important technical decision: the problem it solves, what was chosen, what was ruled out, and what the choice costs. It exists so a settled question is not argued again, by a person or an agent.

Three modes, inferred from the request:

• New — a decision was just made and has no record.
• Edit — a recorded decision changed, stopped holding, or the records need bringing up to date.
• Backfill — decisions made earlier need records, mined from history.
