Developers are finding that AI coding tools can lead to "architectural amnesia," where established decisions are forgotten and new suggestions contradict past choices. One solution involves embedding Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) directly into the AI agent's memory, ensuring that established architectural principles are respected. This approach uses structured markdown files to store decisions, links them to specific code modules, and injects the rationale into the AI's context when relevant files are edited, preventing AI agents from proposing contradictory changes. AI
