FAQPage Schema
How do I document architectural decisions and rationale from team debates?

To document architectural decisions, you provide a topic and context to capture the rationale, edge cases, and competing approaches from technical debates. This generates a structured markdown file preserving the conversation journey for future reference.

What is the best way to capture technical design discussions and edge cases?

Capturing technical design discussions involves recording the conversation journey, options, and final decisions into a topic-focused documentation file. This ensures the context and rationale surrounding edge cases are ready for future implementation planning.

Can I generate architecture documentation from meeting context without manual formatting?

Yes, generating architecture documentation requires only a topic and its context to automatically output a structured markdown file. This file contains the discussion context, explored options, journey, and final decisions without manual formatting overhead.

Where are documented technical debates and design decisions stored by default?

Documented technical debates are stored as markdown files at the relative path docs/workflow/discussion/{topic}.md. This default location organizes decision rationale and discussion traces systematically within your project repository.

Do I need a specific framework to preserve rationale through architecture debates?

No specific framework is needed to preserve rationale through architecture debates, as there are no external dependencies. You only need to supply the discussion topic and context to generate the structured decision documentation.

How do technical discussion traces help with software implementation planning?

Technical discussion traces help with implementation planning by providing ready-to-consume context from recorded design debates. This documented rationale and explored options give developers immediate insight into why specific architectural decisions were made.
