Adds adr-kit to the Any template list on the Decision Capturing Tools page, alphabetically after ADG. Supersedes #104, which was opened against an older main and described an older release.

adr-kit (MIT) is an ADR toolkit aimed at AI coding agents. It ships native plugins for Claude Code CLI, OpenAI Codex CLI and GitHub Copilot CLI on top of dependency-free Python 3.10+ command-line tools and an MCP server, so the same engines run whether or not an agent is involved.

What it adds beyond authoring:

  • Selective context — a generated ADR-INDEX.json is queried to inject only the ADRs relevant to the task at hand, with explainable matches, instead of reading the whole set.
  • Grilling — a proposed decision is interviewed one question at a time until it is ready; acceptance stays an explicit human action.
  • Enforcement — declarative rules from each accepted ADR are checked against the diff at commit time and in CI, deterministically and without an API key.
  • Maintenance — a guardian flags decision drift, stale ADRs and retirement candidates.

Template options are MADR (default), Nygard, and adr-kit's canonical seven-section format, with guided conversion between profiles — hence the Any template section rather than the MADR or Nygard lists.

Actively maintained: current release is v0.40.0 (July 2026). I am the author of the tool.
