Create adr

Skill: create-adr

Write a new Architectural Decision Record following the format used in docs/contributing/adr/.

Instructions

Step 1: Determine the next ADR number

Use Glob to list all files matching docs/contributing/adr/*.md (excluding README.md). Extract the three-digit numeric prefix from each filename (e.g. 011 from 011-variable-name-collision-detection.md).

The next number is the highest existing prefix plus one, zero-padded to three digits. If no ADR files exist, start at 001.

Step 2: Derive the filename slug

Convert $ARGUMENTS to kebab-case: lowercase, replace spaces/underscores with hyphens, remove non-alphanumeric characters (except hyphens), collapse consecutive hyphens.

Target: docs/contributing/adr/{NNN}-{slug}.md

Step 3: Read existing ADRs for content style

Read 1-2 recent ADRs to understand content style and level of detail:

• docs/contributing/adr/011-variable-name-collision-detection.md
• docs/contributing/adr/010-operaton-namespace-only-extractor.md

Note: Read these ONLY for writing style and technical detail level. Structure is defined in Step 5.

Step 4: Gather content from user

Ask the user (all at once, skip if $ARGUMENTS already answers):

1. Context: What problem or situation motivated this decision?
2. Decision drivers: Key factors (extensibility, testability, simplicity, etc.)?
3. Options considered: Alternatives evaluated (description, pros, cons for each)?
4. Decision: Which option was chosen and why?
5. Consequences: Positive impacts, negative impacts, trade-offs?
6. Technical implications: How does this affect the architecture (domain/application/adapter layers, new services, etc.)?

Step 5: Draft the ADR

Follow the structure from existing ADRs:

# ADR {NNN}: {Title}

## Status
Accepted

## Context
{Situation that motivated the decision}

## Decision
{What was decided and how it works}

### Implementation
{How this affects the codebase — new services, adapters, patterns}

## Consequences

### Positive
- {benefit}

### Negative
- {trade-off}

Add extra sections (e.g. ## Example, ## Alternatives Considered) only when they add meaningful value — follow the style of existing ADRs.

Show the complete draft to the user before writing.

Step 6: Confirm and write

Ask: "Write this ADR to {target-path}? (yes / edit / cancel)"

• yes → write file, then update the index in docs/contributing/adr/README.md by adding a link under the appropriate category
• edit → apply changes, show updated draft, ask again
• cancel → stop without writing

Step 7: Report

Output the created file path and remind the user to commit the ADR in the same commit as the related code change for traceability.
