setup-adrs

setup-adrs is a skill for Claude Code from jrjsmrtn/project-orchestration-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (4,793 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating foundational Architecture Decision Records, or ADRs—short documents that record important project decisions and their reasons.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after project setup or when standardizing decision documentation, covering choices such as the technology stack, development practices, and operational needs.
Why use it?
It gives a new or existing project a consistent record of decisions about development, technology, and operations.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: shipped in a Claude Code plugin. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is - [System Architecture](../architecture/) - C4 model.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup-adrs 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 11d 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.

Foundation ADRs

Create the foundational Architecture Decision Record (ADR) sequence for a new project.

When to Use

  • After running bootstrap-project skill
  • When establishing decision documentation for an existing project
  • When standardizing ADR practices across projects

Required Inputs

  1. Project name and description (from CLAUDE.md or user)
  2. Project type: Development, Infrastructure, or Hybrid
  3. Technology stack decision and rationale
  4. Development practices to adopt (can use defaults)
  5. Operations requirements (critical for Infrastructure projects)
  6. Project-specific constraints or requirements

Foundational ADR Framework

Every project should have these foundational ADRs:

ADR Purpose Scope Critical For
ADR-0001 HOW TO DECIDE Decision methodology All projects
ADR-0002 HOW TO DEVELOP Development practices All projects
ADR-0003 WHAT TECH Technology stack All projects
ADR-0004 HOW TO OPERATE Operations practices Infrastructure, Hybrid (optional)

Note: ADR-0004 is only needed for Infrastructure and Hybrid projects. Skip it for pure development projects (libraries, CLI tools, web apps without self-hosting concerns).

Audience Traceability

ADRs serve the Contribution audience category (maintainers, contributors, future architects). They provide the "understanding-oriented" content in Diátaxis terms, explaining why decisions were made.

If a SPARK Audience Registry exists for the project, tag ADRs with the registry's identifier for the Contribution audience:

---
audience: contribution  # or the project's registry ID for maintainers/contributors
---

Pattern Reference: See AUDIENCE-DRIVEN ARTIFACTS

ADR Numbering Convention

Before creating ADRs, check for existing ones to prevent conflicts:

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.
