Auto-triggers when a non-obvious decision is made during conversation.

  • Works in 5 steps: Append-only -- NEVER edit or delete past… → Context + Decision + Rationale -- all… → Include rejected alternatives --… → …
  • A non-obvious decision is made during conversation

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Log Decision is an agent skill from Kiyoraka/Project-AI-MemoryCore. Auto-triggers when a non-obvious decision is made during conversation. Also triggers on 'log decision', 'why did we choose', 'what was the trade-off', 'should we use A or B' (after resolution), or when user asks about past reasoning behind a choice.

Its SKILL.md is about 880 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `README.md` and `install-decision-log.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Architecture decision records.

When your agent uses it

  • A non-obvious decision is made during conversation
  • Why did we choose
  • What was the trade-off
  • Should we use A

Example prompts

  • “log decision”
  • “why did we choose”
  • “what was the trade-off”
  • “/log-decision”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Append-only -- NEVER edit or delete past entries
  2. Context + Decision + Rationale -- all three fields required for every entry
  3. Include rejected alternatives -- document what was NOT chosen and why
  4. Non-obvious only -- skip trivial choices (using git, formatting preferences)
  5. Natural detection -- detect decision-worthy moments without requiring explicit commands

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c421b55. 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 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.

Context cost

Log Decision loads about 884 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 348 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~884

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 348 words (~884 tokens).

“Every important "why" captured, every trade-off remembered.”
