Architecture Decision Record

Keep major technical decisions discoverable as systems and teams change, including decisions that replace earlier ones.

Architecture decisions lose context as systems evolve and people move teams. This template captures the domain, owner, decision date, status and relationship to earlier decisions, creating a record that future engineers can discover and review.

Fields
