Nygard-style ADR

A minimal Markdown ADR: status, context, decision, consequences. The shape popularized in engineering blogs and the adr-tools ecosystem.

Format

Number files consistently (ADR-0001-*.md or your org scheme). The decision section should be quotable in a PR comment; context should be short and force-oriented.

What is an ADR for the broader idea.
