Decision guardrails for pull requests

Decision Guardian automatically surfaces the right decision records at the right moment — when a developer is actively modifying the code those decisions cover. Instead of hoping developers read a docs folder before merging, the relevant context appears directly on the pull request.

This works for any kind of decision record: architecture decisions, data decisions, compliance decisions, clinical and medical decisions, security decisions, and more.

Works with any CI system (GitLab, Jenkins, CircleCI) and as a pre-commit hook. Open source. MIT license.

ADR Guard is a GitHub Action that fails a pull request when watched code paths change without an architecture decision record being added or updated. Waivers are explicit: an ADR-Exempt: line with a reason passes the gate and is written into the job summary. Template-agnostic, no dependencies. Open source. MIT license.
