ADR Tool

ADR Tool is a small CLI-oriented helper for creating and maintaining Architecture Decision Records in a repository.

Purpose

• make ADR authoring easier in day-to-day engineering work
• keep decision records lightweight and close to the codebase
• support teams that want a simple documented architecture workflow without heavyweight tooling

Typical usage

• create a new ADR entry
• keep numbering and file structure consistent

Notes

• pairs naturally with repositories like servdir that keep important product decisions in ADRs
