develop-adr — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited develop-adr (Agent Skill) and scored it 91/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 1 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

An Architecture Decision Record documents a significant technical decision along with its context and consequences. ADRs capture the "why" behind architectural choices so future team members understand the reasoning - especially important when they question why something was done a particular way. This skill follows Michael Nygard's lightweight ADR format.
develop-design-rationaledevelop-spike-summary firstdevelop-solution-brief; an ADR records a decision, it does not sell oneWhen asked to create an ADR, follow these steps:
ADRs are numbered sequentially (ADR-001, ADR-002, etc.) for easy reference. The title should be a short noun phrase describing the decision, like "Use PostgreSQL for order data" or "Adopt React for frontend."
New ADRs start as "Proposed." After team review, they become "Accepted," "Deprecated," or "Superseded by ADR-XXX." Status changes should be tracked.
Explain the circumstances that led to this decision. What problem are you solving? What forces are at play (technical constraints, team expertise, timeline, cost)? This section should help a reader who wasn't there understand why this decision was needed.
Clearly articulate what you decided. Use active voice: "We will use..." rather than "It was decided..." Be specific about what is and isn't included in the decision.
List the outcomes of this decision - positive, negative, and neutral. Good ADRs are honest about trade-offs. What becomes easier? What becomes harder? What new constraints or options does this create?
Skip this step entirely otherwise; it is a subsection inside Consequences, not a seventh heading. A model choice differs from an ordinary dependency choice in one way that matters for an ADR: the thing you evaluated will be replaced, often inside the life of this decision. So record what the choice costs to undo, not just which option won. Name whether you are building, buying, or prompting a general model and what ruled the other two out; what is now coupled to the choice (prompts, evaluation sets, output schemas, latency budgets); the operating cost accepted and the volume at which it stops being acceptable; the real reversal cost given that coupling; and the observation that would reopen this ADR, which is a trigger rather than a review date.
Use the template in references/TEMPLATE.md to structure the output. A complete ADR fills every template section: Status; Context; Decision; Consequences; Alternatives Considered; and References.
