# ADR Format
|
||||
|
||||
ADRs live in `docs/adr/` and use sequential numbering: `0001-slug.md`, `0002-slug.md`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Create the `docs/adr/` directory lazily — only when the first ADR is needed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Template
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
# {Short title of the decision}
|
||||
|
||||
{1-3 sentences: what's the context, what did we decide, and why.}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
That's it. An ADR can be a single paragraph. The value is in recording *that* a decision was made and *why* — not in filling out sections.
|
||||
|
||||
## Optional sections
|
||||
|
||||
Only include these when they add genuine value. Most ADRs won't need them.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Status** frontmatter (`proposed | accepted | deprecated | superseded by ADR-NNNN`) — useful when decisions are revisited
|
||||
- **Considered Options** — only when the rejected alternatives are worth remembering
|
||||
- **Consequences** — only when non-obvious downstream effects need to be called out
|
||||
|
||||
## Numbering
|
||||
|
||||
Scan `docs/adr/` for the highest existing number and increment by one.
|
||||
|
||||
## When to offer an ADR
|
||||
|
||||
All three of these must be true:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Hard to reverse** — the cost of changing your mind later is meaningful
|
||||
2. **Surprising without context** — a future reader will look at the code and wonder "why on earth did they do it this way?"
|
||||
3. **The result of a real trade-off** — there were genuine alternatives and you picked one for specific reasons
|
||||
|
||||
If a decision is easy to reverse, skip it — you'll just reverse it. If it's not surprising, nobody will wonder why. If there was no real alternative, there's nothing to record beyond "we did the obvious thing."
|
||||
|
||||
### What qualifies
|
||||
|
||||
- **Architectural shape.** "We're using a monorepo." "The write model is event-sourced, the read model is projected into Postgres."
|
||||
- **Integration patterns between contexts.** "Ordering and Billing communicate via domain events, not synchronous HTTP."
|
||||
- **Technology choices that carry lock-in.** Database, message bus, auth provider, deployment target. Not every library — just the ones that would take a quarter to swap out.
|
||||
- **Boundary and scope decisions.** "Customer data is owned by the Customer context; other contexts reference it by ID only." The explicit no-s are as valuable as the yes-s.
|
||||
- **Deliberate deviations from the obvious path.** "We're using manual SQL instead of an ORM because X." Anything where a reasonable reader would assume the opposite. These stop the next engineer from "fixing" something that was deliberate.
|
||||
- **Constraints not visible in the code.** "We can't use AWS because of compliance requirements." "Response times must be under 200ms because of the partner API contract."
|
||||
- **Rejected alternatives when the rejection is non-obvious.** If you considered GraphQL and picked REST for subtle reasons, record it — otherwise someone will suggest GraphQL again in six months.

# CONTEXT.md Format
|
||||
|
||||
## Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
# {Context Name}
|
||||
|
||||
{One or two sentence description of what this context is and why it exists.}
|
||||
|
||||
## Language
|
||||
|
||||
**Order**:
|
||||
A customer's request to purchase one or more items.
|
||||
_Avoid_: Purchase, transaction
|
||||
|
||||
**Invoice**:
|
||||
A request for payment sent to a customer after delivery.
|
||||
_Avoid_: Bill, payment request
|
||||
|
||||
**Customer**:
|
||||
A person or organization that places orders.
|
||||
_Avoid_: Client, buyer, account
|
||||
|
||||
## Relationships
|
||||
|
||||
- An **Order** produces one or more **Invoices**
|
||||
- An **Invoice** belongs to exactly one **Customer**
|
||||
|
||||
## Example dialogue
|
||||
|
||||
> **Dev:** "When a **Customer** places an **Order**, do we create the **Invoice** immediately?"
|
||||
> **Domain expert:** "No — an **Invoice** is only generated once a **Fulfillment** is confirmed."
|
||||
|
||||
## Flagged ambiguities
|
||||
|
||||
- "account" was used to mean both **Customer** and **User** — resolved: these are distinct concepts.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Rules
|
||||
|
||||
- **Be opinionated.** When multiple words exist for the same concept, pick the best one and list the others as aliases to avoid.
|
||||
- **Flag conflicts explicitly.** If a term is used ambiguously, call it out in "Flagged ambiguities" with a clear resolution.
|
||||
- **Keep definitions tight.** One sentence max. Define what it IS, not what it does.
|
||||
- **Show relationships.** Use bold term names and express cardinality where obvious.
|
||||
- **Only include terms specific to this project's context.** General programming concepts (timeouts, error types, utility patterns) don't belong even if the project uses them extensively. Before adding a term, ask: is this a concept unique to this context, or a general programming concept? Only the former belongs.
|
||||
- **Group terms under subheadings** when natural clusters emerge. If all terms belong to a single cohesive area, a flat list is fine.
|
||||
- **Write an example dialogue.** A conversation between a dev and a domain expert that demonstrates how the terms interact naturally and clarifies boundaries between related concepts.
|
||||
|
||||
## Single vs multi-context repos
|
||||
|
||||
**Single context (most repos):** One `CONTEXT.md` at the repo root.
|
||||
|
||||
**Multiple contexts:** A `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the repo root lists the contexts, where they live, and how they relate to each other:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
# Context Map
|
||||
|
||||
## Contexts
|
||||
|
||||
- [Ordering](./src/ordering/CONTEXT.md) — receives and tracks customer orders
|
||||
- [Billing](./src/billing/CONTEXT.md) — generates invoices and processes payments
|
||||
- [Fulfillment](./src/fulfillment/CONTEXT.md) — manages warehouse picking and shipping
|
||||
|
||||
## Relationships
|
||||
|
||||
- **Ordering → Fulfillment**: Ordering emits `OrderPlaced` events; Fulfillment consumes them to start picking
|
||||
- **Fulfillment → Billing**: Fulfillment emits `ShipmentDispatched` events; Billing consumes them to generate invoices
|
||||
- **Ordering ↔ Billing**: Shared types for `CustomerId` and `Money`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The skill infers which structure applies:
|
||||
|
||||
- If `CONTEXT-MAP.md` exists, read it to find contexts
|
||||
- If only a root `CONTEXT.md` exists, single context
|
||||
- If neither exists, create a root `CONTEXT.md` lazily when the first term is resolved
|
||||
|
||||
When multiple contexts exist, infer which one the current topic relates to. If unclear, ask.

description: Grilling session that challenges your plan against the existing domain model, sharpens terminology, and updates documentation (CONTEXT.md, ADRs) inline as decisions crystallise. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan against their project's language and documented decisions.
|

disable-model-invocation: true

|

|
||||
Interview me relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until we reach a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one. For each question, provide your recommended answer.
|
||||
|
||||
Ask the questions one at a time, waiting for feedback on each question before continuing.
|
||||
|
||||
If a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, explore the codebase instead.
|
||||
|
||||
## Domain awareness
|
||||
|
||||
During codebase exploration, also look for existing documentation:
|
||||
|
||||
### File structure
|
||||
|
||||
Most repos have a single context:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/
|
||||
├── CONTEXT.md
|
||||
├── docs/
|
||||
│ └── adr/
|
||||
│ ├── 0001-event-sourced-orders.md
|
||||
│ └── 0002-postgres-for-write-model.md
|
||||
└── src/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If a `CONTEXT-MAP.md` exists at the root, the repo has multiple contexts. The map points to where each one lives:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/
|
||||
├── CONTEXT-MAP.md
|
||||
├── docs/
|
||||
│ └── adr/ ← system-wide decisions
|
||||
├── src/
|
||||
│ ├── ordering/
|
||||
│ │ ├── CONTEXT.md
|
||||
│ │ └── docs/adr/ ← context-specific decisions
|
||||
│ └── billing/
|
||||
│ ├── CONTEXT.md
|
||||
│ └── docs/adr/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Create files lazily — only when you have something to write. If no `CONTEXT.md` exists, create one when the first term is resolved. If no `docs/adr/` exists, create it when the first ADR is needed.
|
||||
|
||||
## During the session
|
||||
|
||||
### Challenge against the glossary
|
||||
|
||||
When the user uses a term that conflicts with the existing language in `CONTEXT.md`, call it out immediately. "Your glossary defines 'cancellation' as X, but you seem to mean Y — which is it?"
|
||||
|
||||
### Sharpen fuzzy language
|
||||
|
||||
When the user uses vague or overloaded terms, propose a precise canonical term. "You're saying 'account' — do you mean the Customer or the User? Those are different things."
|
||||
|
||||
### Discuss concrete scenarios
|
||||
|
||||
When domain relationships are being discussed, stress-test them with specific scenarios. Invent scenarios that probe edge cases and force the user to be precise about the boundaries between concepts.
|
||||
|
||||
### Cross-reference with code
|
||||
|
||||
When the user states how something works, check whether the code agrees. If you find a contradiction, surface it: "Your code cancels entire Orders, but you just said partial cancellation is possible — which is right?"
|
||||
|
||||
### Update CONTEXT.md inline
|
||||
|
||||
When a term is resolved, update `CONTEXT.md` right there. Don't batch these up — capture them as they happen. Use the format in [CONTEXT-FORMAT.md](./CONTEXT-FORMAT.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### Offer ADRs sparingly
|
||||
|
||||
Only offer to create an ADR when all three are true:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Hard to reverse** — the cost of changing your mind later is meaningful
|
||||
2. **Surprising without context** — a future reader will wonder "why did they do it this way?"
|
||||
3. **The result of a real trade-off** — there were genuine alternatives and you picked one for specific reasons
|
||||
|
||||
If any of the three is missing, skip the ADR. Use the format in [ADR-FORMAT.md](./ADR-FORMAT.md).
