What it does

Adr is an agent skill from jellydn/my-ai-tools. Record architecture decisions with ADRs — captures why, alternatives considered, and consequences

Its SKILL.md is about 590 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `templates/adr-template.md`). Compatibility notes: cline, claude, opencode, amp, codex, gemini, cursor, pi

It sits in Development, covering Architecture decision records. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive configuration management for AI coding tools - Replicate my complete setup for Claude Code, OpenCode, Amp, Li, Codex and Claude Code Switch with custom… The licence is MIT.

Requirements

Compatibility (from SKILL.md): cline, claude, opencode, amp, codex, gemini, cursor, pi

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62c9227. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash and markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Compatibility
cline, claude, opencode, amp, codex, gemini, cursor, pi
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Adr loads about 594 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 25 tokens; SKILL.md has 172 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~25
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~594

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Architecture Decision Records (ADR)

Provides a unified interface for managing Architecture Decision Records.

Usage

/adr <ACTION> [ARGUMENTS]

Actions

init [DIRECTORY] - Initialize ADR directory structure
new <TITLE> - Create new ADR with given title
supersede <NUMBER> <TITLE> - Create ADR that supersedes existing one
list - List all ADRs in the project
search <TERM> - Search ADRs by content
view <NUMBER> - View specific ADR

What are ADRs?

Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) are short documents that capture important architectural decisions made during project development. They help teams:

Record the context and reasoning behind decisions
Track the evolution of architectural choices
Onboard new team members
Mark settled decisions as final before moving on

ADR Structure

Each ADR typically contains:

Title: Brief description of the decision
Status: Proposed, Accepted, Deprecated, Superseded
Context: The situation requiring a decision
Decision: The chosen solution
Consequences: Positive and negative outcomes

ADR Template

A template is available at $SKILL_PATH/templates/adr-template.md:

markdown

# [NUMBER]. [TITLE]

Date: [DATE]

## Status

[Proposed | Accepted | Deprecated | Superseded by [ADR-NUMBER]]

## Context

[Describe the context and problem statement]

## Decision

[Describe the decision and solution]

## Consequences

### Positive

- [Positive outcome 1]
- [Positive outcome 2]

### Negative

- [Negative outcome 1]
- [Risk or trade-off]

Questions about Adr

What does Adr do?

Record architecture decisions with ADRs — captures why, alternatives considered, and consequences. Adr is an agent skill from jellydn/my-ai-tools.

When should I use Adr?

Adr fits situations like: tasks that involve Architecture decision records.

How do I install Adr in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add jellydn/my-ai-tools --skill adr -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/adr in jellydn/my-ai-tools) into .claude/skills/adr in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Adr in Codex?

Run `npx skills add jellydn/my-ai-tools --skill adr -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/adr in jellydn/my-ai-tools) into .agents/skills/adr in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Adr in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add jellydn/my-ai-tools --skill adr -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/adr, .gemini/skills/adr, .github/skills/adr and .opencode/skills/adr in your project.

What does Adr need to run?
