decide

A skill that makes an AI coding agent record technical decisions in a structured document called an Agent Decision Record, or AgDR.

In plain words
What is it for?
Comparing libraries, choosing coding patterns, making architecture decisions, and answering questions such as whether to use one option or another.
Why use it?
It helps preserve why a library, coding pattern, or software design was chosen, rather than leaving the reasoning only in chat.

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

decide 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 3d 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.

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.

decide is a skill published in the GitHub repository me2resh/agent-decision-record (44 stars, last pushed 26d ago), with no licence file. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 748 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.

decision-backfill

Use when auditing an existing codebase, documentation set, plans, RFCs, or git history for architecture decisions that were made but never recorded as ADRs, and when triaging potential records before drafting them.

decision-memory

Use when planning, designing, reviewing, or changing code in a repository that keeps ADRs (usually docs/adr) — to load the decisions that already govern the work, check a plan or diff against them, or record a new decision. Also use when a choice feels already-settled and you cannot find where it was settled.
