Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00025 | $0.01903 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00761 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00381 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00190 |
Grade A, and why
adr-draft scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 153 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Resolve the CLI first
Try, in order: $ADRKIT_CLI, then ./node_modules/.bin/adr, then adr on
PATH. @adrkit/cli is normally a dev dependency, so a bare adr is not on
PATH in most projects — trying only that and concluding "no CLI is available"
is a false negative. If all three fail, say so and tell the user to install
@adrkit/cli. Never fall back to reading ADR frontmatter by hand: it cannot
expand glob matchers, cannot read inbound @adr markers, and has no exit code,
so it produces an answer that looks complete and is not.
Draft one architecture decision record for $ARGUMENTS.
Backfill mode
When $ARGUMENTS names a candidate key such as BF-001, resolve it only from
the most recent /adr-backfill report still present in context. Require one
complete backfillHandoff containing:
candidateKeytitlecorpusDircandidatePathssourceArtifactcitationsmissingEvidenceaffectsalternativesreconciliationreconciliationSnapshotwithcorpusFingerprint,governing,activeProposals, andhistorystatusTreatment: proposed
If the handoff is absent, ambiguous, stale, marked covered or unverified, or
missing any field, stop without writing and ask the caller to rerun
/adr-backfill or provide the complete block. Do not reconstruct provenance,
paths, alternatives, or gaps from memory.
In backfill mode, use the handoff title for the scaffold, set
provenance.sourceArtifact, cite every source and known gap in the body, copy
the reviewed affects matchers, and state the reconciliation result. The
handoff supplies evidence, not authority: the new record remains proposed.
Use the handoff's corpusDir as ADR_DIR. Honor the trust confirmation recorded
by /adr-backfill; if the resolved writer is inside the worktree and no explicit
confirmation is present, stop before executing it.
Check first, then write. Before scaffolding anything:
- Outside backfill mode, resolve
ADR_DIRfrom$ADRKIT_DIR, defaulting todocs/adr.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

adr-draft is a command published in the GitHub repository mbeacom/adrkit (20 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 1,903 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
