Tom Boucher a0e45cd146 docs(#1507): mark ADR-1508 implementation-complete and close the conversion-module epic (#1677)
Append a dated amendment to ADR-1508 (append-only convention) recording that
the Runtime Artifact Conversion Module decision is implemented on next: the
content-rewrite engine + walkers + computePathPrefix live behind the deep seam
rewriteStagedSkillBodies/rewriteStagedCommandBodies, the getInstallExports relay
and GSD_TEST_MODE require are deleted, and CONTEXT.md marks the module SHIPPED.

Status stays Accepted (no Implemented status per docs/adr/README.md). Two
deferred follow-ups are tracked as sub-issues of the epic (neither a blocker):
- #1675 dedup convertClaudeToAugmentMarkdown family
- #1676 fast-check property test ($HOME-collapse + idempotency)

Delivery verified by a Codex (gpt-5.4, high) read-only review against the
epic's stated deliverables, cross-checked against the indexed code graph.

Closes #1507

Architecture Decision Records

This directory contains Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for GSD.

Each ADR documents one architectural decision: what was decided, why, and what consequences follow. ADRs are append-only. Amendments extend existing ADRs with a dated section rather than replacing them.

Naming Convention

New ADRs use issue#-prefix slug naming:

docs/adr/<issue#>-<kebab-slug>.md

Examples: 3485-adr-prd-naming-convention.md, 3464-review-default-reviewers.md.

Why

Two developers computing "next ADR number" locally against main will independently pick the same integer and both ship. The collision is already on disk — 0010-* exists twice and 0011-* exists three times. GitHub issue numbers are server-assigned and atomic: the moment you open an issue, that number is reserved globally. Two PRs that both edit the ### Fixed block of CHANGELOG.md always conflict on merge — two PRs that each use a distinct issue# as their ADR prefix never collide. Same shape, same solution.

Legacy ADRs

Files 0001-* through 0011-* are preserved as immutable historical record. The duplicate 0010-* and the three-way 0011-* are documented residue of the old local-compute convention — not patterns to imitate. Do not renumber them.

Full process

See CONTRIBUTING.md — "Proposing an ADR or PRD" for the end-to-end workflow: opening the issue, waiting for approval, naming the file, and submitting the PR.

Seam map

ADR 0005 is the top-level SDK seam index. It references per-seam ADRs and states the narrow-waist principle each seam follows. Use it as the entry point for understanding SDK module ownership.

ADR 0006 documents how SDK query handlers project planning paths (cwd → effectiveRoot → .planning/<project>/...). Cross-reference with the Planning Workspace Module (ADR 0004) for workstream pointer policy.

ADR 0008 documents the Installer Migration Module for safe install-time moves, removals, config rewrites, and user-data preservation.

ADR 0009 documents the Shell Command Projection Module seam for runtime-aware projection of installer-owned command text and projection IR.

ADR 0010 documents the File Operation Engine Module seam for converging installer/migration/planning file mutation safety policy, and its relationship to ADR 0009 hook-command ownership policy.

ADR 0011 documents the Skill Surface Budget Module for install-time skill/agent profile staging (--profile=<name>, .gsd-profile marker, requires: closure) and the Phase 2 runtime /gsd:surface command for cluster-level enable/disable without reinstall.

ADR 1411 establishes the Resolution Provenance principle: context resolution (config loading, project-root anchoring, workstream resolution) must report its provenance rather than fall open silently to defaults. It is the resolution-side analog of ADR 227 (input-validation shape), binds the Config Loader Module, Project-Root Resolution Module, and I/O Module, and is the decision record for epic #1411 (phases P1–P4).
