Design

Produce an Architecture Decision Record (ADR) for a feature or change. Read AGENTS.md if not in context.

Inputs

Design question or topic. Timebox if relevant.

Review-aware

Before starting: check if <artifact>.findings.md exists for this topic. If it does, read it and incorporate findings before proceeding.

Workflow

1. GitHub state check — Run gh issue list and gh pr list to avoid proposing already-built or conflicting work.

2. Shape options — Produce 1 recommended option (+ 1 alternative max). Include: pros/cons, risks, dependencies, success validation.

3. Draft ADR — Write to .aide/docs/decisions/YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>.md (AIDE framework decisions) or docs/decisions/YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>.md (game/project decisions). Status: Draft.

4. Cross-review — Use /findings to exchange findings before accepting. Do not accept unreviewed ADRs.

5. Accept — Set status to Accepted. Hand off to /scope to decompose into GitHub issues.
