Decisions Filing
Explicit choices with reasoning, tradeoffs, consequences, and revision triggers go in
decisions/.
Resolver Status
This is a resolver companion page. The canonical filing rule lives in Filing Decision Tree. Use Wiki Brain Operating Model first to decide whether the decision deserves a standalone record or should be a section on a stronger project, architecture, or workflow page.
File Here
- Architecture, product, process, career, or wiki choices where the reasoning should remain inspectable.
- Decisions that supersede an older approach or create future constraints.
- Inflection points where the consequences matter beyond the current session.
Do Not File Here
- Repeated procedures: use
workflows/. - General principles extracted from a choice: use
concepts/orphilosophies/. - Project state without a decision: use
projects/.
Closeout
Decision pages should state what was chosen, why, what it supersedes, and what evidence would reopen the decision. Update related pages so the chosen state is visible outside the decision record.
