Write an ADR in one pass -- an architecture decision record: the context, the decision
itself, the alternatives considered, and the consequences. Use this skill when you already
know the document you need is ADR, and want it drafted now rather than planned. It is
grounded in, and accuracy-checked against, the Knowledge Base (`.aid/knowledge/`) and the
project source; aid-tech-writer produces it and aid-reviewer verifies it. It resolves
nothing: it drafts, you approve, and only then is the document placed. It never writes
into `.aid/knowledge/`. A thin kind-sibling of `/aid-create-document`, which defines its
full behavior.

# Document Decision (ADR kind-sibling of /aid-create-document)
`/aid-document-decision` is a thin **kind-sibling** of **`/aid-create-document`**
(`.agents/skills/aid-create-document/SKILL.md`) -- not an alias: it is its own catalog
row (`alias_of: null`, its own `{verb: document, artifact: decision}`), `repurpose: true`
(skipped by `build-shortcut-skills.py`; hand-authored). It carries **no logic of its own.**
Execute `.agents/skills/aid-create-document/SKILL.md` exactly as written, with the
document **genre bound to ADR** (structure: Context -> Decision -> Alternatives ->
Consequences) and the **format = markdown**. Substitute only the invocation name in any
printed usage example (`/aid-document-decision` instead of `/aid-create-document`).
Deeper genre structures: `.aid/runtime/templates/shortcut-scaffolding/document.md`.
