Adrkit Decision Memory MCP Server

Decision memory for human- and agent-authored plans - architecture decision records that are machine-readable, enforceable in CI, and legible to agents, without leaving git. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with adr, architecture and backstage and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
