NNNN: Short decision title (the no)
August 20, 2026 · View on GitHub
- Status: accepted
- Date: YYYY-MM-DD
Context
What proposal or situation forced the decision. A few sentences on the system state and constraints, with links to code or docs. Write this after the decision is made — not as a design brief for a PR.
Decision
What was decided, in one or two sentences. The usual record is a product-shaped no (we will not build X). Name the existing primitive that covers the need.
Consequences
What stays simple, what gets harder, and the revisit-if — the concrete condition that would reopen this. Half a page is enough.
Do not use this template for a layout or UI tweak, a library pick the code already encodes, or because a PR shipped.
