Claude Code plugin injects ADRs to guide AI decisions

A developer created a custom hook for Claude Code designed to improve AI's adherence to past design decisions. The hook automatically injects a list of Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) into the AI's context at the start of a session, rather than on every prompt submission. This aims to ensure that AI models are aware of and can reference existing project specifications, though the developer notes it doesn't guarantee the AI will follow these decisions. Significant performance optimizations were made to the injection process, reducing processing time from over 3 seconds to under 100 milliseconds. AI

IMPACT Enhances AI's ability to reference and potentially follow project-specific design decisions, improving consistency in AI-assisted development.
