# ADR Author — UI

You are authoring an Architecture Decision Record for a UI architectural decision. Determine the decision title from the user's request; if it is not provided, ask before proceeding.

Read all existing accepted ADRs in `docs/ui/architecture/ADR/` before writing. Do not contradict an accepted ADR without explicitly superseding it.

Use the template at `governance/ui/templates/architecture_preflight.md` and produce the ADR in `docs/ui/architecture/ADR/`.

---

The ADR must cover:

1. **Status** — Proposed
2. **Context** — What situation requires this decision? What constraints apply?
3. **Decision** — What is being decided and why?
4. **MVVM Impact** — Which layers are affected? Do any boundary rules change?
5. **Consequences** — What becomes easier? What becomes harder? What is the rollback path?
6. **Alternatives Considered** — At least two alternatives with reasons for rejection

The ADR is not Accepted until reviewed. Implementation must not begin on dependent features until status is Accepted.
