Overview

The ADR Generator is a security-tested development skill for Claude AI that generates Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) following the Michael Nygard format. It documents significant technical decisions with context, options, and consequences. The ADR Generator is used when the user asks to document an architecture decision, design choice, or technical trade-off. The tool guides the user through a structured process to create an ADR, including determining the ADR number, gathering decision context, documenting options, and generating the ADR. The ADR Generator helps teams record and track technical decisions, making it easier to understand the reasoning behind design choices.

Q&A

Is this tool suitable for teams new to ADRs?

It is designed to help teams document decisions, but it assumes familiarity with the Michael Nygard format; teams without prior ADR experience may find the guided process helpful yet still need to learn the format.

Asked by Paulo Cardoso · Apr 16, 2026

What input does the tool need to produce an ADR?

It requires user-provided context, options with pros/cons and effort estimates, and the final decision. The generator guides you through each step to fill these sections.

Asked by Anya Sokolova · Feb 20, 2026

Can I customize the ADR format or add extra fields?

The tool follows the standard Michael Nygard format, including status, date, context, decision, options, consequences, and related links. Customization beyond this format isn’t supported out of the box.

Asked by Sofia Lindqvist · Feb 12, 2026

How does the ADR Generator assign ADR numbers?

It automatically generates sequential ADR numbers as you create each record, ensuring a clear chronological order without manual tracking.
