What problem does it solve? Long-running engineering work loses context between sessions: decisions get forgotten, progress tracking resets, and future engineers cannot tell why a tradeoff was made. This Skill persists decisions, risks, and module health as durable, human-readable files that survive session boundaries and context compaction. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Gated ADR creation: Scores each decision on reversibility, surprisingness, and tradeoff strength (3-15 scale) and only writes an ADR when the score reaches 11 with a credible rejected alternative, keeping the ADR directory free of noise. - Risk register: Logs identified risks with severity, likelihood, mitigation actions, trigger conditions, and contingency plans, with a classification matrix that forces deadlines on critical items. - Progress and dependency tracking: Maintains RESCUE-STATE.md, module-status.json, and a Mermaid dependency graph so any new session can recover full project state. - Use Case: After a multi-session refactoring effort, a new session reads the .rune directory and immediately knows the current phase, module health scores, open risks, and the rationale behind prior architectural choices. ## Quick Start Record the architectural decisions and progress from this session into the .rune directory, opening ADRs only for decisions that pass the scoring gate.
