Architecture Decision Records

Architecture decision records (ADRs) live here, numbered, and immutable once accepted (§13.4 of docs/plan.md). To change an accepted decision, write a new ADR that supersedes the earlier one and reference it from both files.

Format

Each ADR is a single Markdown file NNNN-short-title.md with:

• Status: Proposed | Accepted | Superseded by NNNN | Withdrawn
• Date: ISO 8601
• Context: why this decision is being made now
• Decision: what we decided
• Consequences: what follows — positive, negative, and neutral
• Alternatives considered: what we did not choose, and why

Seeded at M0

Per §13.4 and §14 step 9, the following ADRs exist from M0:

• ADR-0001 — Render what you will save (§2.5)
• ADR-0002 — Surgical re-emission with splice-point invariants (§4.4)
• ADR-0003 — Memory safety posture for the parser layers (§7.2)
• ADR-0004 — Two-process model with the IPC as a bidirectional trust boundary (§2.1)
