Decision Log
Record a decision with the options, the reason, and the date.
Use it for
Teams that keep re-litigating the same architectural choices
Skip it if
A decision nobody disagreed about — ceremony without value
What it is
Writes a decision record: the question, the options considered, the choice, the reason, and the date. The required section is the options — a decision log that records only the winner cannot explain why the alternatives were rejected a year later.
Install
Clone the repository, then copy the skill folder into your agent's skills directory — ~/.claude/skills/ for Claude Code. Skills are plain files: no build step, no daemon.
npx skills add decision-logHow to judge it
Read the SKILL.md before you install. A good skill states when it applies, what it must not do, and how to verify the result. A skill that only lists adjectives will change the agent's tone without improving its output — skip those.
