Accept Implemented ADR
Move an implemented ADR from feature folder to docs/adr/ as accepted documentation.
Usage: When user says "accept ADR for {feature-name}" or provides {feature-name} {adr-filename}
Instructions
Verify implementation is complete: The feature described in the ADR should be implemented and working
Read the proposed ADR from docs/features/{feature-name}/{adr-filename}.md
Final trim pass - Remove any content that's not needed for documentation:
- No implementation notes or TODOs
- No phase tracking or status checklists
- Keep only: Context, Decision, Consequences
- Ensure it's concise (fits on one screen ideally)
Update status:
- Change
**Status**: Proposed to **Status**: Accepted
- Update date to current date
Move to docs/adr/:
- Copy file to
docs/adr/{adr-filename}.md
- Verify it follows naming convention:
adr-{YYMM}-{topic}.md
Update feature status:
- Change
readme.md status to "Complete"
- Update Decision section with link to final ADR location
Output: Confirm the ADR was accepted and show final location
Post-Acceptance
The feature folder remains for historical context. The investigations document the exploration process; the accepted ADR in docs/adr/ is the authoritative decision record.
Future changes that supersede this ADR should:
- Create a new feature area (or reuse existing)
- Reference the original ADR being superseded
- Follow the full investigation -> ADR flow
