adr-plan
Analyze a task and produce an Architecture Decision Record with implementation steps.
What this skill does
# ADR Plan: Task Analysis → Architecture Decision Record Analyze a task, explore the codebase, and produce an ADR with concrete implementation steps. ## Phase 1: Analyze 1. Read the task description, active plan, or task list 2. Explore affected areas of the codebase — do it concurrently for independent modules 3. Map blast radius — search for consumers of functions/types/routes being changed 4. Identify alternatives worth considering (at least 2) Do this silently. ## Phase 2: Detect ADR Setup Check if the project has an ADR directory: ``` ls docs/adr/ || ls adr/ || ls doc/adr/ ``` - **Found** → use existing directory, detect next number from existing files - **Not found** → run `npx adr init en`, then proceed ## Phase 3: Produce ADR Content Write the ADR using `npx adr new "<title>"`, then edit the generated file with the following structure: ```markdown # ADR-NNNN: [Title] ## Status Proposed ## Context [What problem are we solving? What constraints exist?] ## Decision [What we chose and why] ## Alternatives Considered | Option | Pros | Cons | |--------|------|------| | ... | ... | ... | ## Implementation Steps ### Step 1: [Description] - **Files:** [files to create/modify] - **Depends on:** [previous step or "none"] - **Done when:** [concrete acceptance criteria] ### Step 2: [Description] ... ## Consequences - [Positive and negative outcomes, tradeoffs accepted] ``` ### Guidelines - **Steps are ordered by dependency** — each step lists what it depends on - **Steps are parallelizable when independent** — note which steps can run concurrently - **Each step has concrete "done when" criteria** — no vague outcomes - **Alternatives table is honest** — include the option you chose and why others lost - Keep it short. 1-2 pages max. No padding. ## Phase 4: Present to User Show the ADR content and the file path. The user may: - **Approve** → ADR stays as-is - **Adjust** → edit and re-present - **Cancel** → delete the file ## Important - The ADR is a planning artifact, not documentation for posterity - Steps should map naturally to work units (a team member could own one or more steps) - If the task is too simple for an ADR (single file, obvious fix), say so and skip - Do not write implementation code — this is planning only

microsoft-graph-gateway
IncludedRoute Microsoft Graph work in this workspace. Use when users want to read or write Outlook mail, calendar events, contacts, OneDrive or SharePoint files, Teams, Planner, To Do, users, groups, directory data, or arbitrary Microsoft Graph endpoints from VS Code. Prefer WorkIQ for common read scenarios. Use Microsoft Graph for write actions and gap-read scenarios that need exact Graph properties, filters, permissions, or endpoints.
copilotkit
IncludedUse when building with CopilotKit — setup, development, integrations, debugging, upgrading, or contributing. Routes to the appropriate specialized skill based on the task.
wordly-wisdom
IncludedProvides calibrated decision analysis using Charlie Munger-style multiple mental models, inversion, incentive mapping, circle-of-competence checks, misjudgment audits, second-order effects, and forecast updates. Use when the user asks for an oracle take, a hard call, a decision memo, a premortem, an outside view, a red-team, a sanity-check, what am I missing, think this through, or wants a strategy, hire, investment, plan, product, partnership, or major life choice analysed. Avoid for simple factual lookups or time-sensitive legal, medical, or market questions without fresh evidence.
swain-session
IncludedSession management and project status dashboard. Owns the full session lifecycle (start/work/close/resume), focus lane, bookmarks, worktree detection, and tab naming. Also serves as the project status dashboard — shows active epics, progress, actionable next steps, blocked items, tasks, GitHub issues, and recommendations. Worktree creation is deferred to swain-do task dispatch (SPEC-195). Triggers on: 'session', 'status', 'what's next', 'dashboard', 'overview', 'where are we', 'what should I work on', 'show me priorities', 'bookmark', 'focus on', 'session info'.
