Log the Decision

Logs a founder-approved boardroom memo as a durable decision in two-layer memory via the decision-logger skill. It preserves raw transcripts for reference and stores only approved decisions, creating a structured record with success/kill criteria and preserved dissent.

✨ What it does

  • Verifies founder approval (status: APPROVED) before logging.
  • Extracts structured decision record: title, date, option, criteria, dissent, review date.
  • Appends to approved decisions directory and updates raw transcript pointer.
  • Optionally writes to company vault if llm-wiki bridge is configured.
  • Schedules auto-revisit after 90 days.
  • Preserves dissent verbatim in the output record.

🎯 When to use it

  • After a /cs:boardroom session concludes with a founder-approved memo.
  • When a decision must become durable company memory and feed future planning.
  • When you need to record dissent verbatim to keep the company honest at post-mortem.
  • When you need to schedule a 90-day review checkpoint for a decision.

🚀 How to use

Trigger: /cs:decide

Trigger with the slash command /cs:decide <memo-path> where <memo-path> is the path to the board memo file produced by /cs:boardroom. The skill reads the memo, checks for APPROVED status, and logs the decision. Example prompts:

/cs:decide memos/2025-03-15-boardroom.md
Log the decision from the latest boardroom memo.

📄 Output: A structured decision record file in ~/.claude/decisions/approved/ and an updated raw transcript pointer.

Requires a board memo with founder approval (status: APPROVED); otherwise the skill will not log the decision.

❓ FAQ

What happens to raw transcripts?

Raw transcripts are stored under ~/.claude/decisions/raw/ for reference only and never feed back automatically.

Why is dissent preserved verbatim?

Preserving dissent verbatim keeps the company honest at post-mortem time, because when kill criteria trigger, the dissent often turns out to have been correct.

What does the skill do after logging?

It schedules an auto-revisit after 90 days and updates the raw transcript pointer; optionally writes to the company vault if configured.
