Post-Acceptance
The feature folder remains for historical context. The investigations document the exploration process; the accepted ADR in docs/adr/ is the authoritative decision record.
Future changes that supersede this ADR should:
- •Create a new feature area (or reuse existing)
- •Reference the original ADR being superseded
- •Follow the full investigation -> ADR flow
