decision-engine

decision-engine is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kok-o/contextos-agents. It costs 34 tokens per session (559 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A system for keeping Architecture Decision Records, or ADRs. An ADR is a short document that records an important technical choice, the alternatives considered, and its consequences.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record and search decisions about databases, authentication, frameworks, state management, and other major design choices.
Why use it?
It preserves the reasoning behind architecture decisions so future contributors and coding agents do not repeat rejected choices or contradict earlier ones.

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

decision-engine 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 today.

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.

Overview

Architecture Decision Record (ADR) system following Michael Nygard format. Captures context, options considered, tradeoffs, and consequences to prevent architectural regression and knowledge loss across AI sessions.

When to Use

Activate when choosing or switching database engines, authentication strategies, state libraries, or significant architectural patterns.

Rules & Patterns

You manage Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).

Why Decisions Matter

Without ADRs, the AI agent sees:

  • "Database: PostgreSQL" - but doesn't know WHY
  • "Auth: JWT" - but doesn't know what alternatives were considered
  • "Framework: Next.js" - but doesn't know the tradeoffs

With ADRs, the agent understands the reasoning and won't accidentally contradict prior decisions.

Commands

Create a Decision

When an architectural choice is made during any pipeline stage:

  1. Auto-increment the decision number
  2. Use the template from generators/templates/DECISION.md
  3. Save to docs/decisions/NNNN-decision-name.md
  4. Update the Project Graph if the decision affects modules

Naming convention: docs/decisions/0001-use-postgresql.md

Query Decisions

Before making changes that touch architecture:

  1. Check docs/decisions/ for related decisions
  2. If a decision exists, follow it
  3. If a decision needs to change, create a new ADR that supersedes the old one

Decision Lifecycle

proposed → accepted → [deprecated | superseded]
  • proposed: Under discussion, not yet committed
  • accepted: The team agreed, this is the standard
  • deprecated: No longer relevant (project evolved)
  • superseded: Replaced by a newer decision (link to it)

Auto-Detection

The Decision Engine should suggest creating an ADR when it detects:

  • A new database/ORM is introduced
  • A new framework is added
  • Authentication strategy changes
  • API versioning approach is chosen
  • Deployment strategy is decided
  • A significant library is added (state management, testing framework, etc.)

Files

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

decision-engine is a skill published in the GitHub repository kok-o/contextos-agents (10 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 559 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 2026-10-25.
