Identify the context and constraints driving the decision.
識別驅動決策的背景與限制條件。
| Step | Action | 步驟 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Identify the problem or opportunity | 識別問題或機會 |
| 2 | List constraints (time, budget, team skills) | 列出限制條件 |
| 3 | Define decision drivers | 定義決策驅動因素 |
Explore at least 2 options with pros and cons.
至少探索 2 個選項,列出優缺點。
| Step | Action | 步驟 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Brainstorm candidate options | 腦力激盪候選方案 |
| 2 | Evaluate each against decision drivers | 根據決策驅動因素評估 |
| 3 | Document pros/cons for each | 記錄各方案優缺點 |
Select the best option and articulate the rationale.
選擇最佳方案並闡述理由。
Generate the ADR file following the standard template.
依照標準模板產生 ADR 檔案。
Cross-reference with related artifacts (SPECs, PRs, code).
與相關工件(規格、PR、程式碼)建立交叉引用。
| Write ADR | Skip ADR |
|---|---|
| Framework/library choice | Routine dependency update |
| API contract or data format | Bug fix within existing architecture |
| Deployment strategy change | Code style decision |
| Establishing new patterns | Trivial implementation choice |
Rule of thumb: If someone might ask "why?" in 6 months, write an ADR.
經驗法則:如果 6 個月後有人可能會問「為什麼?」,就寫一份 ADR。

Before accepting an ADR:
| Check | Criteria | 標準 |
|---|---|---|
| ☐ Context | Clearly explains the problem | 清楚說明問題 |
| ☐ Options | At least 2 options considered | 至少考慮 2 個選項 |
| ☐ Drivers | Decision drivers explicitly listed | 決策驅動因素明確列出 |
| ☐ Consequences | Both good and bad outcomes | 包含正面與負面結果 |
| ☐ Links | Related artifacts referenced | 相關工件已引用 |
After /adr completes, the AI assistant should suggest:
ADR created. Suggested next steps:
- Execute
/sddto create a spec if the decision requires implementation- Execute
/committo commit the ADR file- Update related SPECs to reference this ADR
- Share with team for review if status is
Proposed
ADR 已建立。建議下一步:
- 執行
/sdd建立規格(若決策需要實作)- 執行
/commit提交 ADR 檔案- 更新相關規格以引用此 ADR
- 若狀態為
Proposed,分享給團隊審查
