* docs: adopt issue#-prefix naming for ADRs/PRDs (#3485) The repo's sequential ADR/PRD numbering convention has produced recurring collisions when developers compute "next number" locally and ship in parallel — currently visible on disk as duplicate docs/adr/0010-*.md and triplicate docs/adr/0011-*.md, plus a stack of "resolve ADR conflict" commits in git history. Replace the local-compute convention with issue#-prefix slug naming: docs/adr/<issue#>-<slug>.md (new ADRs) docs/prd/<issue#>-<slug>.md (new PRDs — directory introduced) GitHub issue numbers are server-assigned and atomic, so the reservation step the CONTRIBUTING.md issue-first rule already enforces also produces the artifact ID. One issue = one ADR-or-PRD = one PR. Same shape as the existing changeset random-name pattern (#2975) for CHANGELOG.md fragments, applied to a different artifact class. Migration policy: legacy ADRs 0001-* through 0011-* are preserved as immutable historical record. The new convention applies only to ADRs/PRDs created on or after this merge. Files updated: - docs/adr/README.md — naming convention + legacy note + link - docs/prd/README.md (new) — seeds the new directory + same convention - CONTRIBUTING.md — new "Proposing an ADR or PRD" section - docs/contributor-standards.md — formalize as contributor requirement No code surface — docs-only. Closes #3485 Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(changeset): add Changed fragment for ADR/PRD naming convention (#3487) Per CONTRIBUTING.md "When unsure whether a change is user-facing, add the fragment" — the contributor process IS user-facing for the contributor user class. Drop the no-changelog opt-out, surface the naming-convention change in the next CHANGELOG so contributors see it before they hit it as a PR rejection. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: address CodeRabbit findings on #3487 - CONTRIBUTING.md: rename heading to "Proposing an ADR or PRD" so its GitHub-anchor slug matches the #proposing-an-adr-or-prd link target used from docs/adr/README.md, docs/prd/README.md, and docs/contributor-standards.md (broken anchors) - docs/adr/README.md, docs/prd/README.md, docs/contributor-standards.md: add `text` language tag to the new naming-convention fenced blocks to satisfy markdownlint MD040 Pre-existing untyped fences elsewhere in the touched files are left alone per CONTRIBUTING.md "no drive-by formatting".

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.
